Rogers Changes Upgrade Rules

August 19th, 2009

So a few months back Rogers Communications announced that it would be change hardware upgrade policy for smartphones from every 12 months to every 24 months.  Well Rogers has not done the same for all phones.

This means that you need to wait 2 years before you can get a deal on a new phone.  If you want a new cell phone before hand you have to pay their full price.

This has angered a lot of people because now instead of getting a new phone every year they have to wait.  Rogers has been quoted at saying that the reason for the change in policy is because it allows them to bring better phones to more people and also because cell phone quality has improved a lot consumers don’t need to upgrade every year.

If you are looking for alternatives and arent’ happy with your current provider now may be the time to start looking at unlocked cell phones.
