Just did this deal 4 days ago. Went in to the Spectrum store near me. Swapped my Pixel 8 Pro and walked out with a Pixel 9 XL for $157. FYI they are only doing this deal for the XL right now. I wanted the non-XL but oh well. $1100 phone for $157, great deal imo! I only pay $29.99 for unlimited mobile (and $65.99 for internet. But it's the best internet in my area anyways). So far I am really impressed with the Pixel 9 Pro XL. Beautiful phone. Fingerprint reader works much much better than my P8P. Face unlock works great. Screen is really nice. No glitches so far. My P8P had problems recognizing when I tried clicking on things sometimes. Waiting on an official Google case now.

Pretty solid deal all around

I did the S24 which I upgraded to S24+ in February/March. All in store, no hassle

Right now, eyeing buying a Galaxy A35 from Metro for 75 bucks all in for future trade in fodder for deals such as this Pro XL one or the s25 a few short months down the line

The a35 is a nice phone in it's own right. I'm using the a54, which is pretty similar (and is available free from Total Wireless with port-in, one month prepaid service, and identity verification)

For spectrum extra $100 trade in deals, I just pick any junker phone I have lying around. My Moto G Power 2020 has a TIV of $10, so it's worth $110 as trade. I paid $120 for it in 2020 (not a great phone then, a POS now) and now use it as a media player.

TBH your best bet was to get the iPhone 11 or 12 to get a much larger TIV down the line or some decent profit selling second hand.

When first offered on BB early mid August pre ordered. I traded in my iPhone 13 Pro. Not too bad I didn't think.

Yep great deal if you didn't pay any money for your Pixel 8 Pro that you traded!
Otherwise it wasn't really $157.

When searching, select "other" instead of "spectrum". I can find the a71.Google Fi service is quite expensive. I consider spectrum a little overpriced, but Fi is a lot overpriced.
Thanks, So , I search for other pixel 9 instead of spectrum pixel 9?
If you have 4 lines up to 6 Google Fi simply unlimited is 25$ compared to spectrum 30 $ which require spectrum Internet otherwise is 40$.

Yes you can. I paid off my 36 month monthly payment phone im 10 months. However, they make you pay the full amount and then refund back. On an expensive phone this method of paying 1100 and then refunding back 600 is very inconvenient.
is the refund Credited to the account? Can you get it back as check?

Any time you upgrade something in your life, do you consider the running tab of all the things before it that it replaced? Be a bit reasonable here. The P8P is already a sunk cost. If the person was going to upgrade anyway, the options are to keep it ($0 off), give it away ($0 off), sell it ($400ish on swappa), or trade it in ($450 off in this deal). Sure they could keep a 1 year old phone for longer and not buy the P9, but some people value having the newer tech or have issues with their current phone.

FWIW, I'm still debating if I want to do this deal (would prefer just the 9 Pro but doesn't look like Spectrum has it yet). I've paid no more than $170 each time doing trade ins, upgrading from the Pixel 2XL (bought towards the end of its cycle for ~$200 iirc) to the Pixel 5 to the Pixel 7 and finally to the Pixel 8 Pro. These trade in deals can make it cheap to upgrade if you jump in at the right time.

i liked pixle 8 pro, so i am tempted. but extra $100 for the 256g one, makes the cost a lot higher, as a % mark up. almost a dealbreaker to me....
