With every season comes a forerunner—drizzly rain that means spring, chilly nights that mean autumn and falling iPhone prices that mean the new iPhone season is upon us again.
Today, customers who managed to hold out long enough will now be able to buy the iPhone 5 and 5S for $29 and $99 and Walmarts nationwide. C|Net reports that Walmart’s iPhone 5’s price will come down to about $20, while the 5S will be down in price about $30.
Walmart isn’t alone in slashing iPhone Prices, Best Buy in May launched a weekend-long program that let users trade older model iPhones for the 5C or 5S at steeply discounted prices. The iPhone 5S went on sale for $100 and the 5C for $50, comparable to Walmart’s pricing.
Typically, falling prices signal the forthcoming entrance of a new Apple product to the market. In the weeks before the iPhone 5S and 5C debuted last September, the price of the iPhone 5 plunged at retailers like Target, Walmart and Best Buy.
Walmart is also lowering the price of the 16G iPod Touch in tandem with the lowering of the phone prices.
