It's been said before that Verizon is the priciest U.S. carrier, and it certainly hasn't done anything to discount that belief with something just noticed in their FAQ. The unsubsidized, full retail price for the Verizon iPhone is $50 more than the same price for the AT&T iPhone.
Here's what the FAQ says re: Verizon iPhone 4 pricing:
$199.99 for the 16GB model, and $299.99 for the 32GB model, with a new 2 year agreement. iPhone 4 will also be available for purchase at full retail price - $649.99 for the 16GB model, and $749.99 for the 32GB model.For the 16GB model, AT&T charges $599 and for the 32GB model,a $699.
It's unclear why Verizon is charging more for their version of the iPhone 4, but the most obvious thing that comes to mind is the CDMA chipset inside the device. While $50 compared to the full retail price of the device is small, it's still an interesting additional difference between the two iPhone 4s.
