Does anyone know if I can do this offer to get the fold 7 then once I get it switch back to my iphone? I would just leave the fold 7 in place for the 90 days they require and sell it after, but I dont intend on using it at all.

It has to stay active on the network for 60 days. If you're just flipping the phone, add a new line.

I remember getting a S25 and effectively getting money in February. Trade-in shows that S25's value still as $1374. So with $1999 - 1000 - 1374, I still come out ahead if I trade it in for this, right?

Unfortunately, not how the trade works; trading in a phone for example for you would just be $1999 - 1374. There is no additional $1000, it is baked into the trade-in value. It's nowhere near as good as the S25 deal earlier this year. It still is probably a better trade compared to trading in with Samsung with the early promotion and the trade off being waiting two months vs few hundred dollars. Could be more depending on the phone traded in but there is also potentially high sales tax depending on where you live.

You could do this. It only takes 60 days to unlock, not 90.

No. The only way this is really a deal is if you trade in a really crappy phone. The $1,000 is the bonus. The trade-in values for the phones themselves are all really bad. So you would want to trade in something like a Moto G5 for like $5 and get the $1,000 bonus. You don't want to trade in one of them more recent devices because the trade-in values are really bad.

Can you trade in right away after pre-ordering the phone online?

Small piece of advice from a spectrum veteran. Do this in store. Trade in is instant and no worries about sending in a phone and such. Results in far less out of pocket up front and no risk of lost/rejected trade in.

Yes, I meant to ask that. Can we trade in the store after placing the pre-order online? Or do we have complete pre-order within the store?

Small incentive, but no extra storage for in-store.

Spectrum didn't give the extra storage for Fold/Flip preorder last year, but they brought it back this year.

FYI, most stores don't allow preorder. I've heard from a few users here who were able to preorder in store, but the employees still went online to do it.

This is the way. Trade in junk phone, get $1,000 and then sell the S25 separately somewhere else for bigger value.

Spectrum's value for all the S25 variants are not good.

This year's flip 7 finally look like the competitor. Pre-ordered one for the extra storage, will be sending in a crappy phone anyway.

You can do in store, but that's not an option right now. It won't be an option until the phone actually comes out, and by then you will lose the free storage upgrade. It's a trade-off.

In case you didn't know, Spectrum is valuing your S25 trade-in value at $374. So the total is $1000 + $374 = $1374.
