Many will want to use this offer to swap out the old phones sitting in their desk drawers. Here is the best way to do it, avoiding activation fees and out of stock stores.
1. Locate your trade in phone. Ensure it does not have a cracked screen, and that it turns on. Factory reset it. Write down the IMEI number, make, model, and color. This can be any phone as long as it meets these conditions, even candy bar from 1999.
2. Call TMobile (dial 611). Say "activation"
3. Inform the CS that you want to take advantage of the OnePlus Nord 200 5G trade in offer. Specify which line, and provide CS the details in step #1. Request that the activation fee be waived.
4. Provide a CC# to pay for the tax (~$20).
5. You will get an email for a JUMP! lease. Open it in DocuSign, and sign it. ENSURE that the details are correct - Nord 200 5G in exchange for the exact phone you detailed in #1. After signing, you will get a confirmation email and tracking #. You will also get a shipping label (see below if you don't get it in your email). Print the whole document in color as directed, or print just the shipping label in B&W and see step #6.
6. When the Nord 200 5G arrives, use the same box (so you don't have to print the lithium battery warning label in color - there's one on it) and put your old phone in. Make sure that it is fully charged, that it is wiped, and if it is an Apple device, that you have disabled device tracking. Remember to remove your sim card, and any SD memory cards. You do NOT need to include cables or chargers. Alternatively, see step #7.
7. You can also go to an Tmobile Store (not authorized dealer). Inform them of where you are on the promotion, and tell them that you would like to turn the phones in to them in person. Ask them to look up your account and verify with you that these are the same phones by IMEI. Do not leave without a receipt for each phone you turn in, and save that receipt.
The way it works:
- You pay tax
- You get new phone
- You turn in old phone
- Each month you get a $9 charge
- Each month you get a $9 credit.
For shipping label, you have to login to your t-mobile account and then go to this specific link: https://my.t-mobile.com/myphone/c...trackorder

Step 2) Root it and install Android 11 on it
Step 3) Enjoy all the features it has that are better than the Nord N200
Step 4) Instead of buying a yearly plan for ~$15/month through an MVNO, pay T-Mobile ludicrous amounts for their garbage plans so you can get a statement credit and a new Oneplus Nord N200.
Hard pass.

I've tried multiple times, do you have this issue?
OOPS! WE HIT A SNAG
The page did not load for some reason, but you are still on track.
So I agree. My next phone will probably be a Oneplus, since LG stopped making phones, but I see little point to buying lower midrange phones like this when older flagships are equivalent but cheaper. And yes, you are buying a Nord or something like this, even though it is "$0," since it is via bill credits for TWO YEARS. I'd much rather buy upfront and not be tied to a company or plan for that long. People will scoff at the idea of buying a V30 now, but it actually makes a lot of sense.

3) OnePlus Nord N200 5G
Out of the three, I like the Oneplus the most.
The Samsung has just got updated to Android 12 by the way, while other two are still on Android 11.

I have the A32, anything you like better on the A32 over the n200?
Most people have a thousand dollars or more tied up in EIP's that would need to be paid off if they switched away from T-Mobile.
As for me, I've been with T-Mobile for 6 years now and have been generally satisfied. Every time I look at the offerings from other carriers, they are more expensive and I can't find any way to justify the extra expense.

I would be fairly satisfied with this phone if I paid $200 new. The fact that it's "free" would makes it a no-brainer.
My previous phone is/was an LG V60, which was basically their last flagship. Surprisingly, the N200 user experience is not dramatically worse than the V60. Other than the slightly smaller screen and the occasional lag, the N200 does everything I need it to do. I also just got a Oneplus 8T, and I'm contemplating returning it and just using the N200.

Due to competition, US mobile phone market is among the worlds' best for the consumers.
In many parts of the world, you have to BUY the phone AND pay monthly service fee.
I am paying a reasonable monthly service fee for a necessity, the free phones are simply icing on the cake. I often use these "low end" phones as presents. Makes me feel good to be a "gifter" and recycler.

TY for the review. I got several A32 last time, might try few Oneplus
Just saw on Reddit that the other Mothers Day "deals" from T-Mobile are:
> $200 Port-In Credit: Port in an eligible competitor number to a new line on a MAX plan (or other premium plan like ONE Plus) and get a $200 bill credit
> Samsung Galaxy S21 FE for $99: Open a new line on an existing or new account and get a Samsung Galaxy S21 FE for $99 when purchased on EIP
> $0 down on Apple AirPods Pro or Beats Truly Wireless earbuds: Well qualified customers can buy either of these on EIP and pay $0 down
