If i still owe $150 on my current phone, and I pay that off.. would that be eligible to trade in for this offer? It's the Galaxy S6, so i would get the iPhone 7 for free according to this. I don't upgrade every year, usually every 24 months so i'm considering doing this.
I don't typically upgrade phones every year, I've been on a 2-year cycle for, forever. They gave me $650 for my 6 (6, not a 6s) in October, the phone was only worth $200 trade in at the apple store. It was also a no-brainer for me. I don't have to have the 8 when it comes out, I can wait for the 8s or whatever comes in 2018. Until then, I'm loving my 7+ that I picked up for next to nothing.

Anyone locking themselves into a 27 month plan on the iPhone 6SS (aka 7) is gunna be mighty frustrated come next September.
[LIST=1] * It's not 27 months. * Hopefully someone isn't dumb enough to take advantage of this if they upgrade yearly. * Someone is still welcome to upgrade next year, but they'd simply forfeit their remaining bill credits.
Anyone locking themselves into a 27 month plan on the iPhone 6SS (aka 7) is gunna be mighty frustrated come next September.
Why?
If I decide after 12 months to upgrade to an iPhone 8 -
1) I have had use of an iPhone 7 for 1 year, instead of an iPhone 6s FOR FREE. 2) Resale is better. 3) I can pay approx. HALF the cost of the iPhone 7 ($300) to buy my iPhone 7, then sell it for a PROFIT (> $300) 4) I can then get an iPhone 8 no problem.
I don't understand any issues?
Meanwhile, you 1) Have an iPhone 6 or 6s for the next 1 year... a lesser experience... 2) Have less of a resale value....
