It may not be the hottest new iPhone on the shelves anymore, but if you’re looking to save money on an Apple device, the iPhone 5 is still a top-tier phone – and carrier focus on the newer iPhones means savvy buyers can grab the 5 cheaper than ever if they know where to look.

This week, Virgin Mobile is offering a web-only discount on the smartphone from Tuesday, October 15 through to Monday, October 21.

Purchase selected iPhone 5 devices during this offer, and you’ll save 10% of the current purchase price.

Included models are the 16GB, 32GB and 64GB. All devices will be available in both black and white. For the 16GB, that’s a saving of $44.99; the 32GB, $54.99; and for the 64GB model, you’ll save $64.99.

The promotion is available online only through Virgin Mobile's webstore.

Virgin Mobile offer no-contract monthly plans with unlimited messaging and unlimited data (although throttling applies after the first 2.5GB). Customers can buy a phone online, then activate their device and select a suitable plan once they receive their handset.

Beyond Talk plans start at $35 per month for 300 minutes of talk time, as well as unlimited texting and data.
