Apple Store or T-Mobile?

[nviz22]

I really need another phone and want an iPhone X asap. T-Mobile has quicker shipping times as early as next Friday for the Silver model.

I am not leaving T-Mobile anytime soon and will have the device locked with them right away. What my concern is getting the device unlocked because they're giving me hassle with my old Galaxy device even though I paid it off, used it for the minimum time required for their unlock rules, etc. They said my line met the maximum unlocking attempts in a 12 month span.

If I go through the Apple Store, it's 18 months no interest through a Barclay's card purchase in full for the 64gb model. It will also come unlocked and I get it between Dec 6th and the 13th. I am tired of getting up at 6 am local time to see if the Apple Store has stock because I had an order go through but my purchase had issues and it got cancelled.

What should I do since a SIM free model isn't existent right now? I want the phone asap so I can get something that works since my phone's battery life is bad, contacts screw up, it randomly reboots and freezes up, and other issues persist.

You could use istocknow.com and set notification to e-mail you when the t-mobile model you are looking for comes to stock. Or check daily at 6 am and see if they have something in stock?

I got an e-mail from istocknow.com this morning regarding that the apple store had Version model in stock .I forgot to remove since I already have one. But it's helpful to know they have been receiving shipments regularly.

T-Mobile was a no brainer for me with their $300 trade in offer for iPhone 6. Availability was better than Apple for 64gb silver.

I always purchase from Apple just because I don’t like dealing with the car salesmen at the T-mobile stores.

I don't have an iPhone to trade in sadly.

Would be over the phone to see if I can get a free shipping upgrade since they normally don't charge shipping on new orders.

iStockNow didn't email me when the 64gb T-Mobile Space Grey model was in stock back on Thursday.

I set up the telegram option with the bot as well. It's really annoying getting up so early in the morning to check.
