What is a contract mobile phone?

shutterstock 562715311

Contract phones are mobile phone handsets that are sold by networks as part of a deal that also includes a monthly allowance of data, calls and minutes.

When you buy a contract phone, you're effectively paying for the phone in instalments, usually over a period of 24 months.

Depending on the contract phone you choose, you may have to pay something upfront to help cover the cost of the handset. If you want to do this, you'll usually benefit from lower monthly premiums and will pay less in total over the course of the contract term.

Nowadays, more and more Brits have shunned traditional phone-and-tariff contracts and are instead buying a phone SIM free and then signing up for a SIM only deal.

While this can save money, it can mean having to stump up hundreds of pounds upfront for the phone. For that reason, phone-and-tariff contracts that spread the cost of the phone over a longer period are still the way that the majority of people choose to buy a handset.
