TIM reduces price of phones and Smartphones

TIM wants to encourage Internet use via mobile phone. To this end, the company announced it ten days had reduced to about half the equipment it sells today. Unlock all with total installments of up to three times to customers pre-paid installments of up to 12 times for those consumers who prefer to use the phone in the form of post-paid.


According to company information, the discount can reach 25%.

Among the devices that truly interest the readers of TB, the Motorola Milestone 2 was what had the greatest reduction in price. Before sells for $ 1,296, now it goes for $ 996. It is likely that costs less spectacular in the plans of other carriers, but there it is raw, with no monthly commitment. Of course, the data packet is important and should be hired (or Pre Infinity, which ensures slow internet for 50 cents to each day of use).


Nokia N8-00: R $ 1,248 in TIM
Interestingly the new prices charged by mobile company is that many of them do not seem to be in line with the market, even if all discount is valid. Nokia N8-00, for example. It has 12 megapixels camera with excellent quality, which certainly pleased customers of the operator. It costs U.S. $ 1,248 with the current price (reduced from $ 96). The same N8-00 is sold by the online store for U.S. $ 1,199 Saraiva, also adjusted for use in TIM's network.

The purpose of TIM is good, but I understand that missing more aggressively in prices. Anyway, here's the spreadsheet if you are faithful to the operator and are planning to buy a new phone directly from their hand.

Remember that the operator also sells the iPhone 3G for a price differential. It may even be an old appliance, last year, but he keeps hitting a ball at mid of the public phone. Sells for $ 999 since May, when the price was reduced. Again, with installments of 12 times in the credit card to postpaid customers.
