Deal: T-Mobile offering iPhone 7 for FREE with trade-in of any iPhone 6(S)(+)

-


The cat is out of the bag, T-Mobile only recently revamped its tiered data plans and now only offers a single, unlimited plan with some fine text. It looks like T-Mobile planned this strategic move as it announced the new plans not too far before the iPhone 7’s announcements.



But even with the new iPhone 7’s announcement, T-Mobile isn’t slowing down. John Legere, CEO of T-Mobile. Has just tweeted that it will be offering a free iPhone 7 for T-Mobile with trade-in of an iPhone 6, 6S, 6 Plus, or 6S Plus. 

Here’s the way it works:

  • New or existing customers can trade in their iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6S or 6S Plus in any memory variant
  • Phone must be able to turn on, not have water damage, and can’t have a shattered screen
  • You have to agree to a 24-month finance plan (which will only cost the discounted price) [hint: this is the hook, I’ll explain why]
  • iPhone 7 32GB is FREE, or iPhone 7 Plus would cost only $120, 128GB iPhone 7 would be $100, I think you get it
  • This offer is “while supplies last” so it could end at any time
Alright so here’s the catch. By agreeing to a 24-month “no-cost finance agreement” T-Mobile will put the new iPhone down as a new finance purchase with monthly payments as normal, except the T-Mobile will apply credits to your monthly statement… for the phone that is. You’ll still need to pay for service and Jump (or equipment protection). So basically, by agreeing to a free (or heavily discounted) iPhone, you’ll have that iPhone tied to T-Mobile for two years.

If you want to leave, there is no negative consequence and it’s quite fair: You’d have to pay the remaining balance of the phone off if you want to leave T-Mobile (total cost – credits already applied), or you can just turn it back in.

If you recall, T-Mobile did a lucratively similar offer for the Samsung Galaxy S7 by offering the brand-new phone as a two-for-one deal. This prompted all the carriers to do the same thing. We wouldn’t be surprised if other carriers will chime in with similar and perhaps lucrative offers.

Google is pushing out an updated version of its contacts management app, bringing some of the features available in the web version to the Android app. The v 1.5 update reorganizes the user interface of Google Contacts. Instead of the two tabs – all and favorites – the app now just displays your entire contact list, with a sidebar menu available via the hamburger button on the left. Opening that up reveals a new section for managing duplicate contacts. That’s a feature that was present on the web app of Contacts , but the process was more convoluted on the Android app. You can now also add labels to your contacts, making it easy to organize large contact lists based on groups, for things like family, work, or school. That’s another feature that was present on the web app and it’s now finally making the jump to the Android app, a place where it’s actually more likely to be used. Google Contacts 1.5 is currently rolling out to all users, so it should land on your

LG Display used CES 2018 in Las Vegas to officially unveil its new OLED displays - one of them being a 65-inch 4K flexible screen that can be rolled like a newspaper. The other is an 88” 8K OLED panel that we told you about last week. The flexibility of the 65” OLED display makes it easier to transport or store in the corner. Its small size allows for better space utilization, meaning you can take the TV anytime, anywhere and “enjoy bright, high-resolution content”. LG Display will also showcase its latest upgrades of the IPS technology. The panels now have IPS nano-color, “which expresses rich colors using nanoscale high-color reproduction particles, and IPS technology, which increases the transmittance and reduces the intensity of light reflected on the panel.”, said the company in a press release.
