90% of morons on this thread will ruin the deal by asking dumb questions to Best Buy and possibly altering them to check trade in phone in details. Just keep your mouth shut when you go there to pick up the phone

Now when you order it cc will get charged
Thanks. Very tempted indeed. Got a backup iphone 12 which is used by my wife. She will be very mad if I trade that in. The other drawback is that it has 128gb and need to pay $100 to get the 256 version. Dilemma...

They'll probably release it next year to fill in the "mid range" gap in their lineup for $500+. The pixel 9 has almost all of the same specs as the 9 pro except for the display, extra lens, and extra ram. Maybe there's more to it but that's all I'm seeing
The fingerprint sensor is optical whereas the PRO is ultrasound

Jumped on the pixel 6 to 7 upgrade for $35 2 years ago and it worked out... so giving the 9 pro deal a shot with a purchase of a refurbished iPhone 12 pro. Hoping everything comes together smoothly.

I ended up doing a Iphone trade in for both Pixel 9 - 256 GB and 9 Pro - 256

Pixel 9 -
180 total from Metro for the IPhone 12 locked + 150 cost after trade in from BB = 330 total - 100 BB Credit = $230

Pixel 9 pro
350 used 12 Pro bought on ebay + 165 cost after trade in from BB = 515 total - 200 BB Credit = $315

I will flip one and keep the other. Pretty sweet deal IMO.

My iPhone's model number is NGK23LL/A. This doesn't match model numbers offered by Best Buy. Will this make the phone ineligible for trade-in?

Quote from javiermorales :
For those that placed their order, did you get taxed on the full amount of the phone?

Interested in knowing as I traded in an iPhone 12 a couple of weeks ago for a Pixel 8 and now I'm starting to kick myself for not being patient even though in the grand scheme of things I only paid $4.28 after trade in (phone price after trade in + taxes). My plans are a bit different though with the Pixel 8 as I plan on trading it in for the new iPhone in an installment plan when they come out next month for my Father, (I know installment plans suck) but he loves iOS and doesn't want to move to Android. The Pixel 8 is worth more than an iPhone 12 in installment payments through AT&T's trade in values, so he's daily driving an iPhone 11 in the meantime till next month.
It depends on the states as well, for CA you would get taxed on the full amount

the easiest deal seems to be the pixel 9 <= i went for this one the extra cameras aint a make or break for me. = i bought iphone 12 from metro pcs will be shipped in 2-3 days. 182.

-100 bb gift card i mainly use for mint mobile and other carriers.
-if you count the service from metro then you are paying about
60 dollars for this upgrade

i bought a mint mobile sim card from best buy unlimited to be used after I finish with metro pcs unless i go with their BYOD plan of 25 dollars I would never stay with a 70 dollar plan as I can do unlimited at 15-20 dollars every day of the week thus there is no need.

the best bang per buck seems to be pixel 9 pro only if you can find a cheap iphone 12 pro
hard to get a hold of unless you over pay.
iphone 12 pro cost about 300-330 right now.
-200 gift card.

you are paying 100-130 for this upgrade.

as for pixel 9 pro xl isn't much of a deal. unless you need to show off the big screen.

please note I would never ever pay msrp for these phones if it was 50% off maybe I could consider it.
I am only doing this because of the decent deal.
I saw metro has the $99 iPhone 12 deal when transferring your number. How long do you have to keep service with metro so that you can keep the $99 iPhone 12?

Fingerprint is ultrasound on all 3 phones. Not optical.

This is very specific but nothing relevant when choosing tade-in.
So I can trade in other models of phones?

Mine is MGK13LL/A. Would that work as trade-in?

Thanks for posting this, I happen to have been holding on to my old iPhone 12 Pro, i have not been able to sell it and just kept it as a gaming phone, this is a perfect deal to upgrade and get a newer device for basically free!
