According to T-Mobile’s announcement, the Priv will be available through the carrier’s JUMP! On Demand lease option for $0 down and $34 per month for 18 months starting Tuesday, Jan. 26.
Customers can also purchase the device through T-Mobile’s financing option for $0 and $30 per month for 24 months, the carrier said. The device retails for $719.99.
AT&T was announced as the first U.S. carrier to offer the device in November. AT&T initially offered the device for $24.67 per month for 30 months on the company’s Next installment plan or for $250 up front with a two-year commitment.
