This is a lot cheaper if bought outside of the Philippines. The expected price of the 64 GB would cost 40 000 in the Philippines. Whilst, if bought from US its converted price to Philippine peso would only cost 17 556.
kasi po yung nakita mo siguro $399. hindi po yun ang original price nya makukuha mo lng sya sa ganyang price if you’re on a 2-year contract with at&t or verizon. tapos d pa dyan kasama taxes so pag bumili ka dto sa north america ng 5s halos parehas lng din ng price konting konti lng ang difference nila.
