Deal Details
Apple iPhone XS models (including large capacities and Max variants) are all $199 in-store at Walmart as of this weekend. Definitely a YMMV since these are not showing up in online inventories.

NOTE: Brickseek is showing "NO RESULTS" and Walmart.com is saying "Out of stock" for all SKUs (I checked them all). However, all 4 of the stores I checked in-person did have inventory. This seems very unusual, but I purchased a 256GB XS Max for $199 this afternoon at a store in my area so there are some models out there.

Walmart listing (shows no inventory; see note above) https://www.walmart.com/ip/Apple-.../109707311

No contract/commitment required, but I believe these are only setup to work only with AT&T. I have AT&T so I haven't explored this further.

Clarification: No AT&T account info was needed to checkout. I just asked for the phone at the electronics counter, paid the total, and walked out. I charged the phone, swapped the SIM from my existing phone, and was up and running.

Nobody in this thread seems to want to share the exact situation when the associate attempts to ring up the phones and if the regular registers allow it or does it have to go through warp or troc
You have to go through WARP.

Not at my store, actually they told me its WARP, and they don't even stock that phone anymore. So YMMV then?

But if they do it by WARP, do we have to sign up for a plan/line, or does it give them the option to let us just pay full price for the phone?

FWIW, I have no idea what WARP is. I didn't share any AT&T account info at all.
  1. buy phone
  2. charge
  3. activate / swap sim from old phone
  4. enjoy

Its has the option for full price, but reps won't do it. Because they legit make no money off selling you the phone outright. Some reps will allow it, but its not something easily done.

They'll make you sign up for a phone/line if you want it. You can easily cancel it but be prepared to open one if you gotta.

They let you buy without activation or new lines? Was this multiple stores?

Just picked up two using online reservation. Took about 45 minutes between locating them and figuring out how to check me out, but got them.
Can you share more detail? Greatly appreciated it
