That is a question loaded with variables. Anyways I will give my data points as a reference. For me here, 5G is a couple miles away on TMO and not that great. However, on my newer devices with the Standalone 5G Sim Card (VS say another same phone that i just popped in old SIM in instead). . .the phones with SA sims get 100-150mbps, where as the non SA sim phones gets 60-100 normally, all other things equal.

Another quirk is the 5G home internet Gateway I recently got. It seems to be non SA 5G, further evidenced by the primary signal always being set at 4G no matter how you twerk the online settings (other than shutting of 4G altogether, which shuts down communication in the end). And keep in mind I never get better than 'Good" signal on the app (There are higher VG and Excellent ratings). . .but when I am at "Good" it pulls from B2 4G or B66 4G. . .and Gives me 50-100Mbps hardwired. . .and when I twist the gateway slightly to where it gives me "Weak" signal. . .it seems to pull off the N71 5G tower and my speeds jump up to 100-200mbps hardwired. For reference, my 4G towers are just under a mile away due east, and the n71 5G tower is roughly 2 miles away and to the NE, so it's not that hard to try and exclude one or the other. . .

If you're planning on sticking with T-Mobile for the next 2 years, this is a great deal. They're giving $800 for Pixel 3s and S8s!

No, the phone can't have any cracks on the screen and must be functional.

I'm a former Sprint customer. When I try to log in at T Mobile, it redirects me to a Sprint branded login and doesn't give me the option to try to get this. I have the T-Mobile Unlimited Freedom on my bill. It's only giving me a $500 off offer for adding a line and nothing for just changing. If I could get the phone for no cost, I'd do it. I'm rocking an LG G8 and the upgrade would be great. Oh well.
Same here. And I'm rocking a LG G7 ThinQ. All it's showing me is add a line and get $500 off. 👎

Are taxes charged on the $800 or on the price after the credit?

I have a Sprint and TMO account currently, and I have to go to incognito to sign in or do anything with my TMO account as it sends me to Sprint otherwise. Different login emails no less so I'm confused as it should be sending me to TMO when in doubt not a current Sprint customer. . .

Anyways, I have $25 Kickstarter plan, and looks like they finally opened up financing for phones for that plan. It's obviously not one of their "premium plans" that would qualify for the full $800 like on this deal, but it did give me a few options: $500 off with S8 or iP8 trade no new line (though I haven't seen this in my cart just the offers page.) The offer that shows up when I try and upgrade current line is a BOGO Galaxy line up to $1k with add a line no trade. And if I choose the add a line route rather than upgrade, the offer it shows is free up to $800 Galaxy with add a line Plus minimum trade of S10 or X/XR or better.

T-mobile is now limiting the best deals to "Premium" plans only. LOL. They must have finally hit some numbers goal and grew tired of us with grandfathered plans repeatedly raking in free or nearly free phones and extra lines, resulting in dirt cheap monthly service bills, especially for those us with 9 lines or more.

I am on TMobile One Plan and getting $500 credit for S7. Software on S21 is full of bug and most of the users are complaining about phone getting hot and wifi disconnect all the time. This may be the reason it is on the huge sale. Nice deal but I am passing.

Just curious, but how are you able to get $500 on the One Plan? I am on the One Plan (with the Plus add-on) and I am only getting $200.

I was a sprint customer and it worked for me. Logged in to my account, clicked on my line to see what the upgrade options were, added the S21 to cart, and the promotion was there for the trade in on my s8.

i have magenta first responder plan and i have a brand new iphone 11 Pro 64GB.

Do I qualify and should I trade in this iphone 11 pro brand new model for galaxy s21? Iphone 11 Pro is much better valued right?

Just got off the phone with a very helpful rep and wanted to share my experience:

#1 - 4 lines can qualify for this promo per plan
#2 - It is NOT just Magenta MAX, there is actually a pretty big list of plans they see on THEIR end when they look at the promo. I couldn't get the full list, so I can't be of much help there, but if you call in make sure they look at the full list.
#3 - We're on a ONE Military Plan with a few of the LINES having the PLUS addon - and all LINES that had the plus addon were eligible for the promo (she verified the exact promo code against what was eligible on her end).
#4 - The promo will NOT show up correctly when you check out on the app/online, it will show as $500. She reassured me SEVERAL times and added notes specifically referencing the codes on her part to all of my eligible lines. She could have absolutely been blowing smoke but I left the conversation feeling reassured, and that if we had trouble down the line I had something specific to reference.

I got the deal yesterday at my local TMobile. I don't see the 800 credit on my account yet, and the rep said it would appear after around 1 billing cycle. Is this typical? There's literally no documentation on the 800 dollar credit as of now.

Wasn't sure I would qualify as we are on an old sprint plan with BYOD discounts on some lines, autopay discounts, and military discounts on lines that didn't have the BYOD discount. Spoke with a rep. yesterday that said to add the phone to cart and if my line qualified the discount would appear in cart, it did appear, for trade in on my s8. The s21 in all colors did show as backordered saying I would around the first week in July or whenever it came in stock, but it just arrived today!Applausebouncewoot Along with a box prepaid UPS label to send in my s8
