When Apple announced 8GB versions for earlier iPhone models, it was meant to be entry level models to make it affordable for the masses. That doesn’t seem to be the case here until recently.
The Apple Store is also offering the iPhone 3GS 8GB for RM1,199 in Malaysia. This makes it cheaper and can be a choice for mid level smart phone buyers.
The iPhone 3GS is still decent smart phone with access to a huge library of apps on the App store. In terms of software, it is still on par with the latest iPhone as it supports iOS 5 albeit with reduced new features. Other smart phones within that price range are Sony Ericsson Xperia ray, LG Optimus Black, Samsung Galaxy S Plus and Samsung Galaxy W.
As comparison, Maxis iPhone page is still showing the 3GS 8GB priced at RM1,790. There’s an i3GS promo plan which offers the phone for RM199 with 24 months contract.
