Similar to the Samsung A32 5G deal, starting on the 25th trade in any functional and undamaged phone and get a free OnePlus Nord N200 5G via 24mo bill credits.
Update: The A32 will no longer be available as part of the 5G For All promo starting June 25th (ends June 24th). Therefore, this OnePlus phone is effectively replacing the A32, not supplementing it.
Update 2: The promo will be separately named internally from the A32 deal, meaning even if you got 4 A32s you'll still be able to get up to 4 of these OnePlus phones per account.
Side-mounted fingerprint reader integrated into power button)
18W wired charging (no wireless charging)

Trade in Phone:
If you don't have a trade in phone, nice cheap one for $10.
The primary constructive takeaway from my post was intended as: S10>>N200 and don't fall for 5G hype. You seem to hope that T-Mobile is doing something special with their 5G deployment... and while it differs from what Verizon does, that doesn't actually produce a better result nor could it meet the expectations built around 5G. I'll explore that below in case you're interested(?).
The distinction which launches the article I shared (which did center on Verizon) is the same for T-Mobile: the form of 5G which would provide the benefits touted by some sources is exceptionally rare. T-Mobile gives their own version of this which is fairly telling:
AT&T is an open liar (i.e. 5GE is faux 5G)
Verizon has some work to do on expanding mmWave 5G
(And by extension delivering on the promise of 5G)
Please don't take notice that T-Mobile is also not delivering mmWave 5G
(Basically they talk a lot of trash about mmWave without highlighting the distinction on what it delivers: true, low-latency, gigabit 5G capacity)
While T-Mobile touts the expansion of mid-band 5G, you will notice no mention of a huge mmWave deployment of their own... because they don't have one. More specifically they have very little spectrum in that space and no significant plans for deploying it beyond the few high-density scenarios which will distinguish 5G for years to come: stadiums and high-density urban centers like the middle of Times Square.
Instead what T-Mobile has done is dedicated more of their existing 4G LTE network to 5G in the same way they quickly repurposed their 3G network to 4G in a bid to maintain relevance in the 4G era. At the time, they lacked the desirable low-band real estate purchased by Verizon, but saw they could maximize the efficiency of the bandwidth they had. The way that plays out similarly today is a 5G network which provides an incremental efficiency improvement over the prior network configuration and whose growth is built upon mid-band spectrum acquired from Sprint.
Hm I wonder how this is compared to the A32. Both are 6.5 but this one is on Snapdragon 480 with a 90hz screen. Retail value is also 70 bucks less so you'd pay less tax on this one
I have an old and grandfathered plan, will they force me to upgrade to get a 5G phone, I don't care about 5G, just want to get a newer phone. I know newers phones can work with a 4G sim card. but wondering if the carrier will force people to switch.

No forcing. All T-Mobile plans that have LTE data also get 5G access for free.

The OnePlus N200 is probably better from the standpoint it has a Snapdragon and more importantly 1080p screen. It's also an IPS screen on the Nord.
The A32 only has a 720p screen and Mediatek processor.

T-Mobile's TLDR is that:
AT&T is an open liar (i.e. 5GE is faux 5G)
Verizon has some work to do on expanding mmWave 5G
(And by extension delivering on the promise of 5G)
Please don't take notice that T-Mobile is also not delivering mmWave 5G

Maybe some of this is interesting to someone(?).
Good luck!

The A32 only has a 720p screen and Mediatek processor.

The main advantage to the A32 is in theory it should have a physically better camera.
Edit: The deal from Metro has been added to this post with the instant full rebate. Now that's a deal!

This would be a great backup phone.
IMO, the Metro promotion is a better deal.

I believe it'll be a separate optionedit: it's replaced the A32
