Deutsche Telekom Gets iPhone in Europe?

By Geoff Duncan July 3, 2007

Without naming its sources, the German daily paper Rheinische Post is claiming that Deutsche Telekom’s T-Mobile unit has inked a deal to offer Apple’s hot new iPhone in Europe (German) starting November 1.

According to the article, T-Mobile will price the iPhone at €450, presumably for the 8 GB model, although pricing for the lower-capacity 4 GB model and prices in other European countries is “not clear.”

The report contradicts recent speculateion, fueled by Credit Suisse, thatmobile operator Vodaphone was the most likely to offer the iPhone to European customers. France Telecom and Spain’s Telefonica have also been named as possible carriers for the iPhone.

Rheinische Post says it will publish its full story Wednesday, July 3.

It's been just a few days since Apple released the first developer preview of iOS 18. Since then, developers and everyday users have discovered features in the first iOS 18 beta that Apple didn't mention in its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC 2024) keynote. The most recent discovery concerns what happens when your iPhone's battery becomes exhausted.

Apple iPhones have a power reserve feature that conserves a small amount of battery life to support essential functions like Find My and NFC unlocking when the battery is nearly depleted. In iOS 18, the feature appears to be extended.

Following the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC 2024) keynote, developers are starting to dig into the first iOS 18 developer beta. Though this beta lacks Apple Intelligence and many of the other features demoed on Monday, it offers a surprising new take on an old iOS feature: the flashlight.

The built-in flashlight feature has been available on the iPhone since iOS 7, which was released in 2013. It hasn't changed much at all since then, which makes sense, given its basic function. Interestingly, it has received a significant update in iOS 18.
