New customers can get 4 iPhones or Samsungs for $100 / month including service. This deal is best for existing customers who just want to upgrade with their grandfathered plans. If you know your plan's SOC, you can check if your SOC qualifies on this master list [sprintswac.tk]. Don't ask if your plan qualifies, each plan has tens or hundreds of SOCs and not all SOCs work, even for the same plan. Either check the master list or try doing a test upgrade yourself on t-mobile.com.

If you don't have a trade-in, Samsung S10's can be purchased for $100ish and that nets you $800 promotional value. Stack through T-mobile SIS Costco for additional $35 DCC waiver, $100 Costco GC for upgrading (maybe more or less currently), and 90 days no restocking fee returns.

T-mobile does not publish the end dates of their promotions. No one knows when it will be over, so if you are purchasing a trade-in, make sure you can return it.

Same promotion at costco with 1) $35 activation fee waived; and 2) $100 Costco cash card for upgrade (potentially increase to $150 or $200 during black friday).

Community Reviews

The Pixel 10 promo is a 24 month T Mobile trade in offer that can cover the whole Pixel 10 family, with the strongest value on grandfathered plans and some Costco routes adding a waived activation fee, a $100 shop card, and sometimes free Pixel Buds 2a. The trade in credit is applied as monthly bill credits, so taxes are still due up front and the phone stays carrier locked until paid off. The main catches are plan eligibility, possible promo misapplied at checkout, and losing remaining credits if the line is cancelled early. It is a better fit for customers staying put for the full term.

  • Pixel buyers trading in an older Samsung or Pixel with good condition, because the $800 credit can offset the phone over 24 monthly bill credits.

    devin2k9dru500aclick2imranNudle

  • Costco members who want extra upgrade perks, because the same promotion can add a waived activation fee, a Costco gift card, and free Pixel Buds 2a.

    garfieldatorland0gmhuntr7rocknshineouloat

  • Existing T-Mobile customers on grandfathered plans who want to keep their current service, because the promo is aimed at upgrades without switching plans.

    Jman100ouloathooked_on_SD

  • Shoppers who need a carrier-locked phone on T-Mobile, because the device stays locked until fully paid and the financing credits run for 24 months.

    VenkateswaraBVenkateswaraBNudle

  • Travelers who need an unlocked phone for foreign physical SIMs, because the phone stays carrier locked until fully paid and may not accept another carrier SIM.

    VenkateswaraBVenkateswaraBVenkateswaraBVenkateswaraB

  • Shoppers expecting a simple instant discount, because the savings are spread across 24 months and tax is due on the full pre-credit price.

    Ajax77SlickDillieBargainDormammualeki

  • People planning to port out or use another carrier soon, because leaving before 24 months forfeits the remaining bill credits.

    bwxyzNudleBargainDormammu

  • New T-Mobile customers who are comparing offers, because commenters say newer activations can get better deals elsewhere.

I took advantage of this promotion last time and still haven't received my $135 device trade in credit.
Trading-in your phone in a T-mobile store was always the top recommendation since the trade-in is completed at the store and you get approved for the promotion immediately. If you choose to send in your trade-in, then you will have to deal with lost / damaged packages and delays in processing. If it's been a couple months, you can follow up with T Force to see if they can push it or manually credit you.

Android (including pixels) can be temporarily unlocked by T-mobile for 1 month (up to 5 times a year). The app to check lock status / request unlock is installed on the phone, except Pixel have to download it from the play store.iPhone's cannot be temporarily unlocked.

The thing is I received an email that the trade in is completed and that I will be getting $135 credit. It has been over 2 months and I am still fighting T-Mobile for it. SMH

I did this deal last time as well, but it never offered or showed the partial credit thing they do. It gave me all $800 in monthly promo credit (Pixel 7 which I image has > $0 trade-in value). I got the partial credit the last time I did a trade-in deal a few years ago. This time I went through the app, maybe that makes a difference.

If your monthly EIP = RDC, then the credit was applied as monthly instead of one time. If not, then escalate to T-Force or executive relations.

Anyone able to get this same deal from Costco with $100 shop card
Yep, went through their phone number here:
https://www.costco.com/t-mobile-b...wcase.html

Plan: Magenta 55+
Got the $800 trade in promo, the $100 Costco card, and the free Pixel Buds 2a so the "online-exclusive" banner on T-Mobile's site is false lol.

Anyone with a Costco membership considering this deal really should just go this route.

Seeing that you can get full value all the way down to P6, and I have a 9 Pro, I think I'll wait for the P 12 Pro to come out.
