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.

Did you give the thread a thumbs up?
Even better, I gave it a "Bought This" so it gives reps and a TU at the same time :0)

I have one 64 Max and another 256 Max. The 64 shows as fully unlocked on sickw while the 256 shows as under flex reseller policy. I plan to use on ATT so if I put an ATT sim in the 256 that locks it to ATT, I can still request the unlock? It would be nice to have it unlocked whenever I decide to upgrade in the next year or two.
On sickw, did your 256 Max actually say "under flex reseller policy", or it says "locked"? Mine shows "locked" on sickw. Just wanted to know if that means under flex reseller policy. Thanks.

Yeah it will say locked since it will lock to whatever carrier sim you put in first. Should be able to unlock after that according to the carrier policy (verizon after 60 days for example).

I was hoping someone was able to unlock theirs after activating on ATT -- I think I saw a couple posts of people who were able to do this but I can't find them.

Hahaha. 4 different Walmarts. I reserved the xs max at 4 different Walmarts in my area and all 4 would not sell it to me as device only. Got management involved. All I heard was corporate this and corporate that. This is why I love Denver, too many people and they're all dicks.

2 hours later I'm home with 2 XS Max's 64GB. Signed up for Sprint and the phone is locked so calling them now go get it unlocked. I own it so they don't have a reason not to unlock it. Both phones were not sealed nor did they have the plastic wrap on them. As soon as I get them unlocked I'll cancel this. GF may take one and the one kid may get the other to replace their XRs.

I have 5 new iPhone XS MAX setting on my table. I am going to share them with my family and a couple friends. TY OP for posting the deal.
"family and a couple of friends" who bid the most on them?
