I plan on purchasing an iPhone 13 Mini 256gb (pink) at an Apple Store as AT&T shipping dates are mid June and none of the stores around me have it in stock.
Now the question is - how does the trade in work? Reading the details on Apple's website, it says to either mail it in with the kit they send you or trade it in the store for the $800 AT&T bill credit (trading in an iPhone XR). Is it as simple as me walking in an Apple Store, buying the phone on one of the line that has an upgrade available, and giving them the iPhone XR at the same time?
One thing I dislike upgrading at Apple is that the phone will come activated with esim and I prefer using physical sim (swapping phone with a different line), as I mentioned above, I'm upgrading on the line that's eligible, but will be using the phone on another line and now I will have to go to AT&T to get a physical sim to replace the esim.
