* Battery : Actual battery life varies by network environment, features and apps used, frequency of calls and messages, number of times charged, and many other factors.

* Network : The bandwidths supported by the device may vary depending on the region or service provider.

* User Available Memory : User memory is less than the total memory due to storage of the operating system and software used to operate the device features. Actual user memory will vary depending on the operator and may change after software upgrades are performed.

In this instance, the indicative monthly repayment is the finance amount divided by the Start-up Interest Period. The indicative repayments assume there are no additional purchases, cash withdrawals, fees or charges are incurred. If there is a Payment holiday in addition to the Start-up Interest Period, you will be required to make the minimum monthly payments upon expiry of such Payment Holiday.
