I’m not seeing any upgrade deals for Verizon like I did back when I upgraded to my 13 PM? All the deals seem to require a new line now. Am I missing anything? Last time they gave me like $1000 for my iPhone 11 just to upgrade.

Looks like they are offering something. I may try this but I’m still not convinced I need to make the jump from iPhone 13 Pro.

Thanks. That sucks. Up to $830 which means an 13 PM most likely gets less. Definitely a worse deal than what they previously offered upgrades. I probably won’t upgrade then.

Yeah I thought it was gonna be $1,000 for trade-ins… Starting to reconsider now.

Verizon trade ins suck. Last year I looked into similar. They take that amount and spread it monthly back to you over 3 years. If you trade in that phone, that offer nulls. So if you upgrade next year, you basically got $276 for your trade in.

All the carriers spread the trade in allowance over 2-3 years. That’s why you don’t trade in every year.

Yes, the deal isn't as good. 1000 vs 800 bucks and 24mons vs 36mons, I won't be upgrade unless the old deal comes back.
It sounds like the iPhone 16 is where apple really plans to make changes so I will probably just hold out for another year. Not much reason to upgrade to a 15 PM.

We used to do these deals with ATT and then later Verizon when it was a good offer. Since they went to 3 year commitment we don’t plan to do it anymore.
