u are right , but the thing is that not all countries have same laws . so different countries different operators = differrent contracts .
where i live there are no 24-36 mounth contracts , u only make a 1 year contract .
so most of the ops give u choises like get the phone with 250$ and a 12 mounth contract of 25$/mounth , or get it free and a contract of 70-80/ mounth .
now if u get a 24 or 36 mouth contract for 10$ lets say the op get 1/2 the device price so they see to get the money from ur usage of thier network .
