Some of the Samsung have a button that makes it easier for new users. My mom has stayed away from smartphones because they are too complicated, now that she knows of this feature she is getting the Samsung Galaxy s7 or s7 edge.

just curious does anyone know about the att go phone that is in the ad for $49?It is the huawei ascend xt.Im not looking into adding another phone on my payment plan right now.

Also what about the straighttalk samsung sky?Can that phone be used with att service?

[homedirt]

I'm curious about the go phone as well. The reviews look good. What I'm wondering is how atts prepaid works. Will we have to sign up then or just buy a card? Can it be done online instead of buying a card in store?

I was looking into getting a new phone with the $250 gift card as well. My daughter needs a phone, so I will get the new one and give her mine.

With a go phone you activate it whenever
The reviews do look good I was hoping maybe someone on here had personal experience with it.
I'm actually have regular service with att but you can use a go phone on a contract plan

I got the S7 Edge at Sam's on Saturday.  The $250 gift card will pay for gas for a long time for me.  I had an S3 on it's last legs.  I then saw the Target ad where they have the $250 card the VR glasses and some other package.  

 

I paid for the taxes on the phone.  The activation fee of $20 was waived.  So far, I like the phone.

My son wants a new phone to play Pokémon Go on it. We have T-Mobile. Anyone have any good advice for me?

[Shannie29]

Does anyone have experience with the $250 Gift Card for the phone?  I have two phones I need to upgrade.  Will I get two $250 Gift Cards?  I think they had the same special last year for anyone that upgraded.

[mimiaow123]

Yes you get a gift card for each phone.  The people in front of me in line got two phones and two gift cards.

Best Buy started today with additional $200 gift card for trading in any working smartphone.Ive been with sprint for a long time si I also get a $10 month service credit off each phone financed.Paid for tax and walked out with $900 worth of gift cards for 2 S7s.

Does anyone know if the Walmart iPhone bf sale will be available to order online? And get gift card when phone is activated

[youknwho]

Does anyone know if the $10 monthly payment deal from Verizon is just for new customers or can current customers get that deal on an upgrade?

[nikkilugi]

I didn't see this question.

 

We have phones through Sprint on the lease (iphone forever) program.  My son wants the i-Phone 7 and since it is a decent jump in monthly lease costs he is asking for us to just get it for him for Christmas. I am wondering - how does the phone return work if we do the upgrade through Target?  

 

I am asking because recently I upgraded to the IPhone 7plus through a Sprint Lifestyles store in my area. I received my phone and left my old iphone 6s at the store with the employee after we wiped it clean. Then a month later I receive a bill for $200 from Sprint due to "non-return" of phone. After spending almost a day on the phone and talking to 3 different Sprint reps we finally determined that the 6s was still sitting at that store and hadn't been returned to the Sprint warehouse. This was a nightmare to figure out and I do not want to go through that again. Does anyone know what you do with your leased phone that you are replacing?

 

TIA

Do you know if this is still going on for the trade-in? Plus, did you also get a $250 gift card for best buy? I can't find it online. Thanks!

Does anyone have Straight Talk??  My son (10 yrs) wants a smartphone, and I like that everything is unlimited.  Just not sure about the service.  

[mmptysmom]

StacieM99...I did get the $250 gift card as well...I was told it would run thru Black Friday.It was in store only...id call your local store

[mmptysmom]

When you look on bestbuy.com search for the phone and under special..it says 250 gift card plus 1 item; when you click that it tells you 200 trade in..it's only for sprint and verizon

[dgleason]

We did the deal at Best Buy on Saturday and I dug our old Samsung 3 phones out of the junk drawer (as we want to keep our Samsung 5 phones for back up).  I had to use a charger at the Best Buy counter since they hadn't been charged in a couple years.  My husbands powered up just fine but mine was completely dead.  What I was able to do was purchase the cheapest prepaid smartphone I could find on the shelf (i don't remember the brand but it was on sale for $17.99) and I was able to use that as my working trade in for the 2nd $200 gift card.

[tacl1]

Question; if I'm understanding it correctly, with Best Buy you have to pay full retail of $672 on an installment agreement to get the gift cards and if you go through Verizon on Friday you can get the phone for $10mo for 24 months so the price would be $240. Would that make them about the same price after discounts and gift cards but with Verizon you get the cheaper price and with Best Buy you pay more for the phone but get the gift cards? Thanks for the help.

It is going on till end of business tonight.

 

The trade in is still good, just make sure the phone you are trading in has some sort of value on their trade-in website as that is the catch

 

And yes if you are doing the installment billing, you are getting the 250 dollar gift card. So in essence, its almost double the Black Friday deal on S7 and S7 edge at Best Buy if you go tonight.

[TazErase]

Awesome phone!!! Great deal.

Good to know, I am getting the s7 edge today at Best Buy. I know Target added in an oculus package as well but I know nothing about it so the free VR glasses was what sold me on getting it today. I could have gotten the gift card a few days ago still but the VR glasses are through samsung with a valid receipt from 24 probably til about 26th.

Truth is its like trading on your car at a dealership. You get about half what you could for it on Ebay. I have the s5 and the trade in is about $50. On Ebay they have the s5 for parts only with no chargers for about $70.

Online it says the $250 gift card is for a new line of service.  I have an upgrade available does anyone know if I would qualify?
