Walmart and Straight Talk today announced plans to offer the iPhone 4 and 5 on a no-contract plan, joining a small group of providers currently carrying Apple’s flagship handset on a prepaid basis. The devices will be available as of January 11th at some 2,000 Walmart stores and on Walmart.com. The 16GB iPhone 5 will retail for $649, with the 8GB iPhone 4 priced at $449. Each can be purchased on one of Straight Talk’s no-contract plans: either a $45 plan that offers unlimited data, text, and talk, or a $60 plan that adds unlimited international calls to select countries.
