When you send the old phone back to samsung. Do we need to pack charger & cables? or just phone alone
Thanks got the answer from samsung faq,

• When I ship back to Samsung the device I'm trading in, should I send the charger, case, or other accessories with the device?

No – you should ship only the device, including S-Pen for Galaxy phones, to Samsung, and if you no longer need them, discard the other accessories following your local trash and recycling regulations. Trade-in value is available only for the device. If you do ship accessories back with the device, we will not return those accessories.

I had to change mine, the 5G sim has R15 on it the old one does not, probably you had a newer sim.
The only benefit of the R15 sim is the added standalone 5g if available in your area. I personally don't see any difference. Any T-Mobile sim will work with 5g. There is no need to change if you don't want to.
I have 3 5g phones. I upgraded 1 of them to the newer R15 sim to see if it makes any difference. It didn't.

5G sim is different and the phone comes with one. You can move to new sim by following steps mentioned by tmobile
No, It's no different. Even I never hear or see a 5G SIM.
I'm 100% sure about it because I just bought a unlock SS note 20 ultra 2 months ago. I put my old Tmobile SIM from my Note 9 bought 2 years ago and my Note 20 got the 5G service right away.

Planning to ship an unopened Motorola G Straight talk phone. I believe it is locked. Will they consider it as blacklisted and not give the credit? Any suggestions?

I wish my HTC One X would power up.
I can't believe my 9 years old phone Tmoble LG my touch still working and battery hold the charge (5 days so far), it's like brand new because it's in the case and screen protector. I tried it to make a call, text all are OK.

With these trade in SS does not care it's blacklist. In your case locked to carrier phone is not blacklist. They don't have the time to check the IMEI. All they checked are the physical shape of the phone and turn it on to check the phone is reset.

Quote from in5ane :
there are pages and pages of comments all talking about trading in some phone or the other, havent seen anything about the A71 itself - is this phone any good? I got an old android phone worth $75 per Samsung so I am guessing the A71 would cost me $299, not knowing anything about A71, is this a deal?

thanks in advance
The phone is worth it for $200 (use promo code SLICKDEALS100) which why this deal is frontpage. You're not going to find a 5G compatible phone with these specs for $200 anywhere else.

Galaxy A71 5G (T-Mobile) [samsung.com] 128gb for 66% off (up to $600 off) for as little as $0 with qualifying trade in ($274 w/o trade in)

Use code SLICKDEALS100 for up to $100 off on the Galaxy A71 5G + Free shipping @ Samsung

Select T-Mobile and your trade phone & condition - up to $295 trade in value (iPhone 8 Plus)

Next choose the accessory you want the $30 credit to go towards. Pricing below is after $30 credit and additional discount. You can add multiple accessories if you'd like
  • Galaxy Buds Live - $125.99
  • Galaxy Buds+ - $98.99
  • Galaxy Buds+ BTS Edition - $179.99
  • AKG N700NC M2 Wireless Headphones, Black - $299.99
  • Galaxy Watch Active2 (40mm) (Bluetooth) - $161.99
  • Galaxy Watch3 (45MM) (Bluetooth) - $332.99
  • Galaxy Watch3 (41MM) (Bluetooth) - $305.99
  • Galaxy Watch3 (45MM) (LTE) - $431.99
  • Galaxy Watch3 (41MM) (LTE) - $404.99
  • Galaxy Tab S6 10.5", 128GB, Mountain Gray (Wi-Fi) S Pen included - $479.99
  • Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0" (2019), 32GB (Wi-Fi) - $99.99
What is the current intrinsic value of the Galaxy A71 5G vs the iphone 8 128 GB after factoring that Samung phones depreciate a lot more than iphones?

This is a general question. For trade in generally, is it a requirement for the phone to be unlocked? I am not talking of whether it is enforced or not.

GMS lock status does not matter
