Credit goes to TealCable6389 for the initial discovery, but the deal is much broader than in their post and with better trade-ins than the Pixel 7. Still, give them a thumbs up if you like this deal.

T-Mobile has great deals for Pixels 8s and Moto razrs [t-mobile.com] with instant discounts and a $500 trade-in credit (over 24 months). Upgrades qualify, no new line required. Go5G, Magenta, or ONE plans qualify.

Pixel 8: $100 + tax
Pixel 8 Pro: $300 + tax
Moto razr 2023: $52 + tax
Moto razr+ 2023: $250 + tax

This deal is available through all T-Mobile sales channels: internet, phone, retail, kiosks, etc. Upgrading through Sams Club and Costco will get your $35 activation fee waived and a $75 bonus gift card.

Instant discount sale may end at any time. Ask for the $500 trade-in promotion by referring to Smartphone Trade ID240206​, Promo Code: P706​​ [t-mobile.com].

Cheapest trade-able phone for the full $500 credit would be a Samsung S9 for $90 [ebay.com]. Trade-ins must be in good condition (turns on; no water damage; no screen cracks; and in my experience screen burn and scratches are acceptable).

This deal is for existing T-mobile customers with qualifying plans to upgrade. There are better deals for new T-Mobile customers, like 4x iPhone 15 + Essentials plan for $100.

Costco $100 GC and waived $35 activation fee for upgrading through them:
I just upgraded this morning at Costco as well, and based on the Promo Code that the rep gave me, I'm seeing a $100 Costco GC as well.

Your comment cannot be blank.

I remember when these trade in deals with T-Mobile used to get you the pixels for free on simple choice. No longer the uncarrier, oh well.
No love for SC plans, again
Dang, no love for SC members. I can't give up my plan from 10+ yrs ago. I have like 6 free lines on it so nothing else comes close.

Last good SC deal was moto edge 2022. I got 3.

My only deals outlet now is Samsung.com trade in deals. Here's hoping for a great mid-cycle deal like they did for the S23U. I got mine + Tab S9 + watch & earbuds for less than $400!

Quote from Nachiketkc :
Even with 20% off, Go 5G plans are very expensive than SC? How much did you use to pay per month per line on SC vs now?

For 4 voice lines and 2 data lines, I was paying about $185 after corporate discount. Now I'm paying $205 for the same with the 20% new customer discount and I can take advantage of the deals. Few months back, I traded an S21+ for an S24+, $3/month total for 24 months.

No. Any device in acceptable condition as per their policy. This is a good deal but I wonder if the device can be unlocked.

Any phone can be permanently unlocked from T-Mobile once the EIP has been paid in full and the phone has been used on T-Mobile for 40 days total. You will still get the trade-in credits monthly if you pay the EIP off early and maintain service.

How do you trade in a device that's not in use on your current plan? Like the S9?

$205 after discount or before discount? Because it reads like you're paying an extra $20 per month now just so you qualify for phone discounts which doesn't make sense

I did this at Sam's club and the lady changed my plan to go 5g plus and my credit for iPhone 11 was 0$. I had to call T-Mobile after I got home, because she didn't know what she was doing. Unbelievable!! Is it that hard to upgrade my line?
Also, I didn't get the $75 gift card.

It is interesting that the Pixel 6 Pro (October 2021 Release Date) gets you a measly $250 credit, while the Galaxy S9 (March 2018 Release Date) will get you the full $500.

Seriously. The Pixel 6 I'm currently using is apparently valued the same as my old S6 Edge+ from 2015. 🙃
