Free with a 2-year contract. Like "Free printer with a new laptop". But yeah, the amount of the monthly service fee that goes toward paying for the "free" phone is probably more than the cost of the phone, thus a profit for the carrier. But if you want a major carrier plan you may as well take advantage of the offer you're paying for.

But, it's not free. On a two year contract, I'm sure you pay for the phone many times over. A $350 discount maybe.
