iPhone 4 price drops in the United States

Hello iPhone users, In recent days, reports have surfaced of several retailers lowering the price of the iPhone 4 as the iPhone 5 launch approaches. Rumors about the exact release date of the iPhone 5 have varied considerably; initially, it was said to be released in August, then in September, and now it's rumored to be in October, although the final decision rests with Apple.

Radio Shack is currently offering the 16GB model for $169.99 and the 32GB model for $269,99 , while also offering $100 in trade-in credit for older iPhone models. Meanwhile, Target is offering the 16GB iPhone 4 for $149.99 and the 32GB model for $249.99. Unfortunately, all of these discounts still come with a two-year contract, either with AT&T or Verizon.

However, with the two-year contract, these discounted prices from Radio Shack and Target are much better than the prices AT&T and Verizon have in their stores, which are also tied to the same type of contract.
