Otherwise I think it is a great deal, especially just plan to switch from tello to t-mobile connect (mainly want to try the prioritized data)

Specs seem quite decent. The processor has a PassMark benchmark score of 2486, which is equal to a flagship device from 2017 I have. That's significantly better than current budget phones T-Mobile is offering (Moto G Pure, Samsung Galaxy A12).
If it can be unlocked after a year *without* having to maintain service on T-Mobile (no idea on this), that seems like a pretty good deal.

As detailed in the SIM Unlock Policy that @GaiaGeek posted, T-Mobile Prepaid requires at least 365 days have passed since device was activated, or minimum 14 days and at least $100 in refills.
Also, just like the OP said it seems like stores are pretty unaware of this offer, I talked to one of the really nice reps at one of my local stores and she seems to be completely unaware of this promotion and even said that she's never heard of being able to trade in phones for prepaid.
of course I didn't mention SD. Just inquired about the promotion as per the T-Mobile web page regarding this promo.

So, how this deal works is, for existing prepaid t mobile users who are using outdated 3g mobile phones, an sms will be sent (which is this offer) to upgrade their device to Nord 200 5G.
This sms, the IMEI number and the t mobile account are to be presented at the store, after validation, they will honor the offer.
This is what I was told. I had a 3G mobile, and a prepaid t mobile number. But, this sim card was not on my old phone. It's on a 4G device. I did not get any sms. And so, nothing for me. I will try swapping the sim to older phone and wait for a day or two.
