UPDATE: Celcom bundled pricing updated with fixed rebate amount.
The iPhone 5 will be officially available at midnight with the big 3 telcos – Maxis, DiGi & Celcom offering the device on contract. Outright, the iPhone 5 is going for RM2,199 (16GB), RM2,499 (32GB) and RM2,799 (64GB).
Being a smart phone that’s mobile internet intensive, getting an iPhone 5 from telcos would make sense as they would be subsidising some of the cost through discounted phone price or lowered subscription fees.
So the question is which plan should you pick if you plan to go on contract? The 3 telcos offer plans with different bundling, subsidy structure at different price points. To help you decide, we have compared the subscription plans and the minimum total cost of ownership for easy reference.
Head after the break for the full comparison.

DiGi today has announced that they too are offering the new Nano SIM starting this Wednesday, 26th September 2012. The new Nano SIM which is used for the iPhone 5 is not only smaller but it is also 15% thinner than the standard SIM. It will be offered for free for new sign ups on DG Smart Plan or DG Postpaid Plus.
For existing postpaid, they would need to pay RM20 to swap their existing SIM to the new Nano SIM format. According to DiGi, the Nano SIMs will be widely available across 250 DiGi outlets nationwide by early October 2012. To find out where to get it, the full list of outlets carrying the Nano SIM will be published here tomorrow.
Today Maxis has started offering the new Nano SIM which is offered at RM25. So those that have gotten a iPhone 5 last weekend from oversea sources, you now have 2 local telcos offering the Nano SIM officially.
