Apple's flagship can be had through the carrier for $99 down and 24 payments of $20 for a total of $579 -- a snappy $70 savings over buying one directly from Cupertino. Meanwhile, T-Mo's Simple Choice plan (http://www.engadget.com/2013/03/26/t-mobile-details-its-no-contract-simple-choice-plans-starting-a/) starts at $50 per month for unlimited talk, text and 500MB of data, with an additional 2GB for $10 and unlimited 4G data for $20. Just remember that should you opt into an iPhone 5 through T-Mobile then decide to opt out of your contract, the device will stay carrier locked until you pay it off (http://www.engadget.com/2013/03/26/t-mobile-handsets-will-remain-network-locked/) or trade it back (http://www.engadget.com/2013/03/26/t-mobile-if-you-cancel-you-own-the-phone-but-you-can-trade/) -- unless you're willing to skirt the law (http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/26/unlock-phone-exemption-ends/), of course.
