Does best buy have any stock for walk ins on release day? For some reason I did the math wrong in my head and thought apple and best buy deals were only $10 apart from each other but it's closer to $90 😩

Last year, stores had zero 13 for walk in on launch day.

I keep getting this error when I try to check mark the TMobile agreements: " We are having trouble accessing your carrier's terms and conditions right now, so we can't finish your mobile order at this time. Please try to reload these documents."

You are totally screwed if you travel abroad and need local sim, reason why the esim is only for US as most other countries are not esim enabled! Apple can keep the 14

eSIM is only available in the US? I am sorry, but having to travel for work.....I personally disagree. eSIM is all I have been using for the last 2-3 years when traveling to Europe and Asia, and even Latin America. Are there countries who may not support it? I am sure there are, Maybe North Korea or another country I haven't been to, but at least 23 other countries do and that's personal experience. I am sure though there are way more than 23 though.

if I took the Verizon iphone 13 pro upgrade last year with trade in credit still on going, can I take this year's upgrade again? Will this screw up my tradein credit from last year?

There's a caveat to eSIM support meaning a country could be seen as supporting eSIM but only for postpaid and not prepaid.

Singapore's a good example (as I'm planning a vacation there). It's first world country by any standards but only 1 carrier, M1 supports eSIM, and that's on their postpaid plans. They have an eSIM option for only 1 of their prepaid plans, and guess what, the rates are bad compared to the other prepaid plans they offer that only use a physical SIM.

So I don't agree with the guy you replied to saying that you're totally screwed if you travel abroad, but there's caveats to the solution as well which makes it a bit of a hassle 😅

Just stop. You don't have a crystal ball that accurately predicts these deals any more than we do. This is pure conjecture on your part. I can say the complete opposite and tell everyone there will be hot deals upcoming as these carriers try to hit their quarterly target numbers. Doesn't mean squat. None of us actually know.

Outside of Best Buy and bill credits, the deals haven't been nearly as good the last few years. Costoc's used to be consistent - but they've tapered off a bit.

Not the greatest deal this year. Last year, BestBuy gave $975 for iPhone 12 pro max trade-in, this year $800 only for iPhone 13 pro max trade-in.

For anyone who is doing trade in through T-Mobile directly I was told that this year you can drop off the trade in at T-Mobile stores instead of mailing it. Has anyone done that?

Haven't done it, but I swung by a corporate T-Mobile store today to ask a few questions and they told me I could drop off my Trade-in in store if I ordered online. I was skeptical since I know that wasn't the case in the past, but I'll try it out and we'll see I guess.

I just confirmed with T-Mobile on twitter and you can do the trade in store. Big relief since USPS is is notorious for losing packages. I will do it as soon my order is delivered.

I am sure they will. Keep in mind that last year BestBuy rolled out famous $100 upgrade deal only after 1-1.5 month after release. By that time I stupidly upgraded my wife for $400 using Apple. For myself I went a better route.
They just need sales data for the first 4 weeks - if it is lower than expected, they will start rolling out incentives like that.

This has already been pointed out as not being true several times. The deal was active on launch day for the 13.

I tried this morning to upgrade 2 more lines with my Magenta Plus plan, Now it is showing me only 50% credit. This makes me worried. I already placed a few orders with full credit, I took screen shot, but now I can't seem to find any information about bill credit for the trade in under order status page.

I am getting the same on simple choice.
Can someone with magenta max share their screenshot?

The i13 deal was actived during preorder day; however, BB system back then was having problems connected to TMO system to verify if you already had account with TMO or not. I picked up my 13PM on the launch day.
