Now that figure has been increased to $1,200<\/a>, and the best part isn’t that it’s an “any-condition” trade-in offer; it’s that you can snag the same discount and keep your existing device. You just need to sign on for the right plan.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

If you plan on trading in your old device for an iPhone Duo<\/a>, you should be aware that T-Mobile has a particular list of phones that will actually net you the full $1,200 credit. The bad news is that it’s limited to Apple and Samsung handsets; the good news is that it doesn’t require you to trade-in something fairly new.<\/p>\n

In fact, the oldest eligible iPhone is the iPhone 15 Pro <\/a>and Pro Max<\/a>, while anyone rocking a Samsung Galaxy S24+<\/a> and Z Flip 5<\/a> (or newer) can also claim that sweet discount. Considering some of these phones are now coming up to three years old, it’s not such a bad deal. More so when you consider that many of them actually sold for less than $1,200 in the first place \u2014 including the iPhone Air, which is currently $300 off at Best Buy.<\/a><\/p>\n

Other trade-in thresholds include $930 and $500 off, with some of those devices dating back several years. This is probably more than you’d get by selling them on the used-phone market. Like most trade-in offers, this is applied to your account as 36 monthly credits<\/p>\n

That said, you do also need to sign up for the right plan. New customers have to sign up for Experience Beyond 2.0, with prices starting at $100 a month for a single line. Existing customers can sign up for Experience Beyond 2.0, Experience Beyond or Go5G (from $75 a month).<\/p>\n

But what about if you don’t want to trade in? Well, you’ll need to activate a brand new line and port your number from an eligible carrier in the process. Again, this requires new customers to sign on for Experience Beyond 2.0, while existing customers can choose between Experience Beyond 2.0, Experience Beyond or Go5G. It’s not specified which carriers are eligible, so you’ll have to go through the process and check.<\/p>\n

Sadly, the elephant in the room is that you will be waiting a while for your iPhone Duo to arrive. T-Mobile’s delivery estimates are now listed as December 31 to January 6, which means you’re unlikely to get your handset before the end of the year. It doesn’t matter which model you buy either, all colors and storage variants have the exact same wait time.<\/p>\n

That said, since the iPhone Duo is very expensive, you shouldn’t miss the chance to save $1,200 on the total price. Even if it does mean signing up for an expensive 3-year contract with one specific carrier.<\/p>\n
