Deal Details
i just logged in to my sprint account and clicked upgrade and most of the latest s21 models were marked down with trade in of eligible device. the base s21 5g was $0.00 after billing credit of $33/mo. total for a new s21 was $75 after activating and taxes. I'm rocking an ancient galaxy s8 but surprisingly this phone was included in the eligible trade in devices. I'll add more details to this post when I'm at a computer.

Can't believe this hot deal is so under the radar.

Trading in an S8 or S8+ for $800 off an S21 series is an awesome deal IMHO, even if it is YMMV and via bill credits.... here's the offer details.

***

Qualifying credit, service, and trade-in ($800: Apple: iPhone 11, X, XR, XS, 8/8P, SE2; Samsung: A71, S10, S20 5G (base model), Note20 5G (base model), S20 FE 5G, Note10/+, S9/+, Note9/+, S8/+, Note8; Google: Pixel 4/XL, Pixel 3A/XL, Pixel 3/XL; OnePlus: 8 5G, 8T+, 7T Pro, 7 Pro, 7T, 7; LG: V60, V50, G8; $400: Apple: iPhone 7/7P, 6/6P, 6s/6sP; Samsung: A51, S7/Edge, S6/Edge/+; Google: Pixel/XL, Pixel 2/XL; OnePlus: 6T, 6) required. $10 SIM card, and, in stores & on customer service calls, $20 assisted or upgrade support charge may be required. If you cancel your line before receiving 24 bill credits, you may owe up to the full value of your device (e.g. $799.99 – Galaxy S21 5G 128GB / $999.99 – Galaxy S21+ 5G 128GB / $1,199.99 – Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G 128 GB); if canceling your account, you can contact us first to instead make discounted monthly balance payments.

I see this option on the landing page, but once I login and choose a phone to upgrade, there is no option for this deal. I'm thinking about chatting with them to see if I can get it for a few of my lines.

I had to call telesales to get the deal done 800-777-4681. They even threw in a hotspot for a free 14 day trial... I was only out of pocket $55 for tax

Note, the rep said I was targeted for the offer because I own my device (pixel 3XL that I bought already unlocked from Amazon)... but I'm trading in an S8+

Oh and I'm on a SWAC plan so if anyone else out there is also, you should be good.

Smoking hot deal

EDIT -- add a line NOT required

Same here. Not sure why this deal isn't getting love.

I have a pixel 3 that is just dying. It won't even pop open the notification that a incoming phone call is coming. When the phone ceases to function as a phone, I have a problem. The pixel 3 qualified for the deal. I got a 256GB S21+ black (the only color available in that vareity) for $10.41 a month after bill credits for 24 months after trading in the Pixel 3. It said that phone was available to ship in 1-3 weeks so I'll be waiting for it.

Here are the options I had with the monthly cost after bill credits to save some time:

S21 gray/white/purple/red 128GB $0
S21 gray 256GB $2.08
S21+ violet/silver/black 128GB $8.33
S21+ black 256GB $10.41
S21 ultra 128GB black $16.66

Like I said, I decided to go with S21+ black 256GB. Was hoping for a silver one, but with a case I suppose it doesn't matter.

EDIT: Also, I'm on the SWAC Unlimited Premium plan and I was able to do everything from the website (didn't have to call in). The only unexpected bit was you have to pay tax on the full price phone, so $71.55 in tax plus the $10.41 first month so total of $81.55 paid today.

EDIT 2: I realize that math is wrong, but that's what they charged me. $71.55 + $10.41 should be $81.96, not $81.55.

EDIT 3: I got an email saying the ship date is by 04/09/2021 so I'm hoping that is accurate and I don't have to wait the 1-3 weeks.

EDIT 4: Same phone on Amazon full price is $999.99. https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Un...08N3573HX/
So I am paying $249.84 over 2 years and trading in the Pixel 3.

Nice! I went with a white 128gb S21 because it's free and I'm cheap 😂

Now I go order a nice clear case...

My order confirmation says 5G, so I suppose they're t-mobile, since they're still pretty new devices?

I'm not sure, since my plan is different from yours. Call telesales and they'll be able to give you all the info

I did not have to change a plan to get this deal. I had to have a plan with a device that was "eligible" for upgrade. Assume that means the device is not currently part of a lease-to-own plan like this process creates.

So I would assume, if your devices say "upgrade" on them when signing into Sprint, then you could do this.

Thx op for the heads up! Amazing deal considering Samsung only 2 months ago was only offering $400 for my Note8. Grabbed the s21 256 for $2.08 per month on my free SWAC line! Hard to beat..... 👍

Awesome deal. Traded in minor cracked screen S8+ for S21+128GB for $270 with tax. They are slightly loose with cracked screen wording so hopefully maintain full $800 trade in once they recieve. Would have preferred S20+ but S8+ cracked highest value seen was $200. Wondering if should have gone for S21 Ulta for $400 + tax fees instead.
