Sorry, didn't mean to sound like a ass. But Cricket is a Verizon sub side. They require 6 months of use. WHICH IS MUCH BETTER THAN A YEAR. IMO, and your only paying for the service. So, you can do whatever with a Iphone SE/XR
You are absolutely correct. My comments got mixed up with this Cricket deal and the Straight Talk deal someone quoted.

Cricket is an AT&T MVNO, not Verizon.

Yes after 6 months of service you can have it unlocked.

Wonder what they have for BF this year
That. Besides the Beats headphones. The XR and SE is it. I'm pretty sure. I'll be probably switching for a free iphone.

The xr was their worst phone ever made. It's from 2018. The se 2 has a faster processor yet due to the larger lcd screen its more expensive - get a used 11 or a new se 2 over this

Can I order this paying $60*3months and merge into my existing group which has 4 lines for $100? If I can do that, it'll be $25 pm. Can anyone confirm?

No worries, it happens.

I've liked my cricket service, and a while back I got a new iPhone 7 for essentially free. Customer service is horrendous but as long as you don't have issues it's pretty good lol

XR with iOS 15 is pretty slow and almost unusable on certain occasions, consider XR's trade in value is only $200, it is not a good deal comparing with last year's $109 iPhone SE 2020, which has a much faster processor
no cap?

If the XR is worse than the SE. I'll prolly get the SE for free then.

I got the SE earlier in the year from Cricket. I like the smaller form factor and the finger print reader. If you're ok with an 'uncool' yesteryear-looking iphone, the deal on the SE can't be beat.

This is still the cheapest way to buy a new/used iPhone XR, which has a trade-in value of up to 800 on T-mobile Magenta Max offers (400 otherwise). This is the cheapest phone in that tier (somehow iPhone X is not available in any of these deals). I think that with a CC discount of 25 for starting a new line, this comes out to around 205 + tax on 50 + cost of a new number (around 8), which is much cheaper than the next best option of around 250 on straight-talk.

I'm not sure about either of those, I'd have to do some research. I typically upgrade a couple gens behind. Older Apple devices remain relevant for a long time due to it being so competent when new, combined with iOS being well optimized for the hardware, and Apple including older hardware in iOS updates for MUCH longer than anyone else. I still have that iPhone 7 and it works perfectly. It even got iOS updates not too long ago LMAO
