Sprint's new plan gives you an Apple iPhone, Apple iPad and unlimited service for $100 a month
The conditions of the deal/s may have changed since the initial publishing of this post.
Back in October, Sprint updated its iPhone for Life plan. For as low as $80 a month, you lease an Apple iPhone 6 for two years and receive a plan with unlimited talk, text and data. You could decide to go with the 64GB iPhone 6 ($85 a month) or the 128GB version ($90 a month). And if you want the Apple iPhone 6 Plus phablet instead, pricing runs from $85 a month for the 16GB version to $95 a month for the 128GB unit. After two years, your lease is up and you have to return the phone.
Now, Sprint has a new plan for iOS fans. For $100 a month, you get an Apple iPhone 6, an Apple iPad mini 3, unlimited talk, text and data on the phone and 2GB of data for the tablet. If you worked it out separately, leasing a 16GB iPhone 6 with unlimited data would run you $70 a month. Leasing the iPad mini 3 with 2GB of data would cost you $47 monthly. Together, it would cost you $117 a month, meaning that Sprint's plan saves you $17 monthly or 15%

While leasing the devices means that you need to treat them with kid gloves, it also means that you will eligible to receive the latest versions of the iPhone and iPad mini when the two year leases expire.
