Buy the Tracfone $19.99 90-Day prepaid service plan from Best Buy or Target.
https://www.bestbuy.com/product/t...JXJCJWPGL8
https://www.target.com/p/tracfone...A-52580738

Call Tracfone to rebrand/re-sku the iPhone to Tracfone and activate on the above plan.

If anyone didn't know this. After you activate your phone, you can add this plan and it count as a month. It also worked on plans that said you needed 2 months of silver, etc.

I am interested in getting my parents newer phones and missed out on the TracFone iPhone 13 deal last month. Is this probably the most cost-effective BF deal in order to upgrade them? Get the bronze plan for two months and unlock?

Does this require a new sim and phone number. I had purchased iphone 12 mini with 3 month plan on straight talk few weeks ago. Can I use that sim to activate this phone and alternate the sim between the phones until unlock.

Quote from Spaceman6969 :
Great price even though this one is starting to get old. The crazy part is that this is mostly better than the 16e as far as the features like MagSafe, cameras, Dynamic Island and such.

The 16e is better as far as performance if I am not mistaken AND it gets longer iOS support.

Edit: no Dynamic Island for those two. 16e gets USB C port, less weight and better battery life.
The 16e is much better, I have both. Everything about the 16e is nicer and the camera is better too. I don't use MagSafe, so I can't comment on that. The iPhone 13 is still a great phone though.

Does anyone know if I'm on Walmart family mobile which is another tracfone brand can I buy this and use it with my current WMFM sim? Or can the sim that comes with the phone be activated on WMFM? Would it still unlock after 60 days?

Buying this and then adding to an existing ST plan as a second line should result in unlock in 60 days right?

how much tradein worth at tmobile? $400 or $830?
Depends on your plan with t-mo. On go 5g+ or higher it fetches 800. Check in t-life app or better on apple website. I recommend to always buy t-mobile trades through apple so the phones come unlocked from the start and are not locked fir 24 months if financed through t-mobile.

Probably. The $165 was best as you know and basically no hassle. But this seems 2nd and nothing else out there. But if they aren't requiring the multi angle cameras i would get get them the 16e if available for cheap , a much better and more capable phone. Insane battery life. I used one for 2 month between pro upgrades. That way you have piece of mind for years and they can play with apple intelligence.

Literally almost every carrier does esim now. In-laws doing esims in Africa. If you want a sim slot get a $50 android from one of the deals flying around.

I tried rebranding today, and TracFone said it wasn't possible with the IMEI I provided for the iPhone
