How to upgrade your iPhone at the same price you currently pay
Do you need to upgrade your smartphone? Are you worried about the cost? Well, you’re in luck as iStore has an exciting deal for upgrades around the new, improved, and reliably efficient iPhone 16 range launching in the market…
‘Tis the season of rebirth and revival. While smartphones can last a good few seasonal changes and upgrades, there comes a time when you need to bid farewell to your pocket assistant and hello to a new, non-glitching, fully powered one.
Upgrading however is not always easy and can be costly in some cases – especially with the way technology is constantly evolving and changing. But there is a silver lining glinting off the edge of the silver Apple logo – iStore’s exciting Contract Price Freeze offer.
The timing could not be better, as Apple launches their new, improved, and reliably efficient iPhone 16 range into the market. iStore has some exciting trade-in deals to help you get in on the action without spending extra on your current iPhone contract and beating inflation.
“With the simultaneous launch of iPhone 16 and the innovative Contract Price Freeze, we’re ensuring that South African customers not only access the latest technology at the same time as the rest of the world but also at the same cost they've been used to,”
This, he elaborates will allow South African Apple users access to cutting-edge technology through iStore’s unbeatable trade-in deals and future-proof upgrades.
The offering, iStore believes, will allow iPhone users to enjoy a seamless transition over to the pristine new iPhone 16 without incurring any additional costs to their existing monthly contract. This is a saving grace, especially as most markets experience rising inflation costs met by consumer budgets that simply can't keep up.
The best part is that you can pay even less and drop your monthly costs further when trading in your former iPhone. Apple users across SA can opt to trade in their older iPhone devices – from the iStore 10 up, and be evaluated for a further discount on their new iPhone!

Think your iPhone is due for an upgrade? Here are some other tell-tale signs that it's time to trade in and trade up:
1 The performance is waning – When your device is more lag than productivity, it’s time to hit refresh for a new smartphone. These issues could be due to hardware and software issues causing your device to freeze and glitch more than it stays alive and productive.
2You constantly need to keep it connected to life support – It may be time to pull the plug if you constantly need to use a power bank or charging cable to keep your smartphone up and running.
3You’re stuck in perpetual purging mode – If you find yourself culling your storage space, deleting memories left, right, and centre, and still get the ‘storage is full’ alert – it may be time to upgrade to a device that won’t leave you in the purgatory space of storage issues.
