T-Mobile has posted their store link for the new S20 FE 5G announced today
https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-pho...0214666383

The promotion is on T-Mobile's site here:
https://www.t-mobile.com/content/...spect.html

QA Note: If you don't see the trade-in offer on the above page, then you may need to log into your T-mobile account to see it.

- Buy the S20 FE 5G from T-Mobile on EIP
- Trade in any of the following devices:
Save $500
Apple: iPhone 11, XS Series, XR, X, 8 Series, iPhone 7 series
Samsung: Galaxy S10 series, Galaxy Note10 series, Galaxy S9 series, Galaxy Note9, Galaxy S8 series, Galaxy Note8, Galaxy S7 series
Google: Pixel 4/4XL, Pixel 3A/3AXL, 3/3XL
OnePlus: 8, 8 Pro, 7T Pro McLaren, 7T, 7, 7 Pro, 6, 6T
LG: V60 ThinQ, G8 ThinQ, G7 ThinQ, V50 ThinQ, V40 ThinQ
- Receive bill credits for $500 for the trade in device.

This promotion is 2020 Oct Samsung GS20 FE $500 with trade - offer t401 for those that want to look into the terms more themselves.

This list of trade-ins is slick as even at full retail the Pixel 3A never sold for $500 and it's been a long time since the Galaxy S7 series was valued that high.

But it gets better.

This deal should be able to be combined with the Hookup Type 3 listed in https://slickdeals.net/f/14326784-20-off-t-mobile-voice-lines-for-the-life-of-the-account-for-new-customers-porting-from-verizon-at-t-or-one-of-their-mvnos-or-200-off-a-5g-phone-for-existing-t-mobile-customers?src=SiteSearchV2_SearchBarV2Algo1
I will note that the Hookup discount requires that you receive the phone in hand to enter the IMEI number. This discount is currently listed to expire on Sept 30 so there is some risk in chasing it on a device that you are pre-ordering on the 25th and is not supposed to be in stores until Oct 2. Even without this extra deal, $199 is a great price on the device and is how I have the deal listed in the title.

But if you can successfully combine, this is no new line needed, trade in an old phone/find an inexpensive trade in, and use the hookup to get everything back except for the cost of the taxes on the original $699 cost.
If you purchase something through a post on our site, Slickdeals may get a small share of the sale.

Tofu Vic has put together a doc that outlines the details of this offer. See this message: #291

Link to the Doc:

- Ordered a Navy Blue color on the 25th.
- Got my hookup code for $200 off today.
- Redeemed the hookup code just now successfully (https://insider.t-mobile.com).


No word of a matching promotion from Costco yet that doesn't involve bill credits. Will see if anything posts after release.

Full review from GSMArena
https://m.gsmarena.com/samsung_ga...w-2178.php

There is misinformation about RAM and processor on TMobile (865+) and Amazon (8GBRAM) website.
For anyone if matters, this link has better view of Specs on S20 FE:

For those who are still looking for hookup codes see here (good luck): https://discord.gg/7USPpxj

Get a $70 Samsung Credit (for pre-orders 9/23 to 10/1). [samsung.com]


When you can trade in your phone directly the store:
  • Regular purchases in the store AFTER the phone has officially launched
Benefits: Less scrutiny on trade ins. Note: I have heard stories of accepted in-store trade in and later denied trade in due to water damage and other issues the employee glossed over
Negatives (for this deal): No one knows when this trade-in deal expires. It could potentially end on Oct 2nd, but hopefully later. If it is still alive on Oct 2nd, get to a store ASAP to purchase it. If the store runs out of stock, youre back at square one and must mail in your trade in.
Loss of $200 hookup discount, potential loss of $70 samsung.com preorder credit.

When you HAVE to mail in trade ins:
  • Preorders in the store
  • Preorders online/phone/chat
  • Orders after launch online/phone/chat
  • Orders (after launch) in store IF that store has run out of stock.
Benefits: $200 hookup discount, $70 samsung.com credit
Negatives: longer waiting period of acceptance of trade in. Higher scrutiny of trade in

please be aware of scams. Be smart. If a random account offers a code but you have to pay them first, don't do it.

Fix overly sensitive screen...https://youtu.be/jT2YM8gz_44

S20 fe left vs s10 right
https://ibb.co/wghQYrF
https://ibb.co/wRfwPsh
Yes, tiny text looks poorer due to the lower resolution and noticeable coming from a s8 through s20. Make sure you are happy with such a screen.

Your comment cannot be blank.

Featured Comments

Based on the information from this thread and another community, I created a guide so that more people can hopefully navigate this deal easier and so questions won't be continuously repeated.

Because this will be a living document, I created a Google Doc for ease of updates: https://docs.google.com/document/...sp=sharing

Note: I am not a T-Mobile employee and this is my first-time doing a trade-in with a Hookup code, so I am learning alongside most people here; thus, my guide may not be fully accurate. Feel free to make suggestions for corrections if you notice any mistakes or parts that lack clarity. And if you found my guide helpful, please post a response here just so I know and will continue doing these. Thank you.

I hope this helps,
Tofu Vic
Since this involves a trade-in, just want to remind folks that you can trade-in in person at a T-mobile corporate location and by doing so, avoid any surprises from mailing in your device
Starting 9/25 get a Galaxy S20 FE 5G for just $200 over 24 months via bill credits when you trade in an eligible device:

Apple: iPhone 11, XS Series, XR, X, 8 Series, iPhone 7 series
Samsung: Galaxy S10 series, Galaxy Note10 series, Galaxy S9 series, Galaxy Note9, Galaxy S8 series, Galaxy Note8, Galaxy S7 series
Google: Pixel 4/4XL, Pixel 3A/3AXL, 3/3XL
OnePlus: 8, 8 Pro, 7T Pro McLaren, 7T, 7, 7 Pro, 6, 6T
LG: V60 ThinQ, G8 ThinQ, G7 ThinQ, V50 ThinQ, V40 ThinQ

Or get one free via bill credits when you add a line.

THIS STACKS WITH THE $200 HOOKUP CODE! Remember, only one Insider Hookup code per account, whether it's the 20% or the $200. See here for details on that promo. Please do not ask for hookup codes in this post.

Please note: This WILL NOT stack with the free line. The free line ends 9/24, and this phone promo begins 9/25. There is NO WAY to get this phone for free using the free line. Please don't bother support trying to do it.

https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-pho...-s20-fe-5g

Click the magenta text at the top of the page to see the offer for $500 off. Must be logged in to see the offer. To see the "free with add a line" offer, open in incognito. Please note the $500 off page currently says "when you add a line and trade in" but the adding a line part is a typo and not necessary.

Heads up everybody. The screen is very fragile. I don't remember even dropping it and I already have a hairline crack on one edge. There's no mark of a drop either, just the crack. A quick look and there are several people complaining about unwarranted cracks. GG3 apparently is very brittle.

I sent in my S8 and it shows $73 credit only. When are they going to take the whole $500 off?

I also get charged for $11.37 in the Equipment section since adding the S20. How did they arrive to this number? tax based on the $700, plus the $200 price after rebate, then divide by 24 months, plus fees and stuff?

$500 (less the actual trade in value, which is $73 in your case) is not a one time credit, it's split into 24 months. So you're paying ($700-($500-73))/24, which is the $11.37.

I just accepted this offer in store. I got instant offer value of $27 for S7 Edge and the rest I assume will be via bill credits over 24 months.

This offer is promo code T468.

After you turn in the device in store, how many hours/days it takes for the promo to show up on the account? My equipment cost went up 29.17 per month, which is correct, but I don't see $20.83 credit info. Just wondering how long does it take for that info to show up on the account.

How many days after you hand in the device in store you get final confirmation that the device was accepted and everything is good.

Thank you.

Has anyone began getting their $500 additional credit applied? I still haven't gotten mine and I got denied for the $200 Visa after using the hookup code. Pretty pissed as this phone was supposed to be free and now it's costing $700.

I got my $200 card but when they received my phone and evaluated it they unenrolled me from the promo. When I talked to them via app chat they had to track my phone down so it took a couple of days, but they said it was a good trade in and to give it two bill cycles to enroll back in. Well that never happened so going back to chat I just got a big $500 credit which paid off the phone and then some bill with leftover.

Finally after being in chat for 3-4 hours, I got credit for this promo. I had to request a supervisor. Both the sup and associate claimed there was no record of this $500 trade in promo ever happening. The sup ended up giving me a full credit $500 since he couldn't retroactively apply it which is preferable anyways and I'm thankful for because I definitely was about to leave T-mobile if not.

You didn't automatically get enrolled in the promo when your phone shipped? Also you can look up all past promos somewhere on tmobiles website, I've done it before.
