Store just has to activate the phone on a TMobile account, even one you already have open. A new line is not necessary.
Part of this TMobile promo is an extra $100 off if you have a trade-in.
Ask for a Best Buy trade-in instead to see if possible and how much. I was supposed to get 55+100 for my S-9+ but BB gave me $300 !
Card slots are less important with higher internal storage now and the cloud.

888 POS - It literally does not matter what refresh rate this phone claims, as it immediately throttles after 10 seconds of use. I have distinct moments in the day where I remark "wow, that's pretty smooth" when the phone actually gets up to its 120 hz operations, every other waking moment it is stuttering like it's three generations old.
Under-screen fingerprint reader - I always use tempered glass screen protectors, and the under screen reader does not work with it. With COVID and masks, that means I am punching in a pin every time I use my phone.
Camera - I have my photos set to be at above average quality, and the pictures are very slow to acquire and often blurry. Honestly my Pixel 3A camera felt more responsive and took more reliably decent pictures.
The _only_ step up that I felt in going from my 3A to this phone was the lack of chin and forehead on the main screen, giving more screen real estate.
