You're referencing the T-Mobile deal? There is indeed a standard process by which the line level credits are migrated to account level credits so that you can continue to receive them on a monthly basis.

Good luck!

If you feel like you need more battery then yes. If you're fine with the 12s battery then I'd just keep it. Also consider the extra 64 GB storage if you have a base 12

It is not just battery life. Double the base storage to 128GB. Improved implementation of 5G which will allow high quality "Voice over New Radio" - the 12 Mini will never be able to do that. Unless you are throwing away more than a year's worth of AppleCare+ it seems like a no-brainer.

Did this deal at the beginning of the month.
Traded in my XS max for $400 and got the 13 pro max for grand total $662 (tax $62).
Got an estimated phone will be available on Oct 29, but got an email the phone is ready to be pick up on Oct 17, about 2 weeks early.
isn't xs max $500?

My point is the same for both the Mini and the regular 13 - 5G implementation was reportedly improved and capable of keeping up with pending technology changes. The 5G in the 12 was killing battery life and seems to be a bit of an oddball. I can scrounge up more tech info if you want. I automatically typed "mini" because the cost of doing my swap of two mini's was $70 plus tax, almost identical to your swap costs.

Many thanks to OP!!!!!

I live in Florida where anything and everything that can go wrong is certain to happen.

BUT NOT THIS TIME!!!! NO, NOT THIS TIME!!!!

This deal is so STRONG that I was successfully able to order a new iPhone 13 with 256GB and trade in my ancient iPhone 6s for a whopping $185 (Trade-in Allowance of $30 plus Trade-in Promotion of $155).

My total cost was $765.04 including $55.05 in sales tax. So, $714.99 before tax (for those that live outside of Sunny Florida).

Many, many thanks to the OP and the rest of the slickdeal community for alerting me to this deal.

Very frustrating that none of the 128 GB iPhone 13 are available within 50 miles of Portland. Can't order it online. Seems like it's very popular.

Since 128GB iPhone 13 isn't available the question becomes is iPhone 13 256 GB worth $ 175 to upgrade? Is that a good deal still?

It was sold out in most of Portland stores in less than 10 hours after this post went live. You're like 3 days too late.

Honestly, I am not 100% sure what the trade in allowance is and whether it is always available or just for now. However, the trade in promo is definitely the additional savings associated with this deal.

Without the trade-in promo this deal is as hot as ordering a single Big Mac for $9.99 for delivery.
