This monthly fee doesn’t include the fee you will pay for wireless service from your selected carrier.

After a time frame of 12 months, apple users can return the iPhone version they have for the newly launched iPhone.For example, if you register for this program at one of the Apple’s retail stores this year now, then you will be able to return iPhone 6S for iPhone 7 anticipated to arrive in September 2016. However, please note that you become eligible to trade your current iPhone for newer one with the accomplishment of first 12 payments only.

Digging up more into the Apple’s upgrade program

With this program, Apple has basically provided its users with a 2 year, interest-free, monthly payment scheme to pay for the iPhone cost. And AppleCare+ extended warranty is included in this package. While AppleCare+ will cover maximum 2 accidents for 2 years, you will still need to spend extra $99 as a service fee if say your iPhone screen has damaged and needs to be replaced.
