We have a Next plan, two phones. I have an S6 Galaxy Edge+ with a cracked screen, husband has an iPhone 6. He is/was eligible for an upgrade and preordered the iPhone 7. I am not yet eligible but am willing to pay the upgrade with trade in fee. Can I somehow use his iPhone 6 as the trade in phone and continue to make payments on my Galaxy as well as a new iPhone 7?



My phone still works I just don't want to swallow the $500+ payoff yet. Thoughts?

Depends on the terms of his upgrade. Doesn't he need to trade in the 6 for his 7?
 
The most cost effective solution is to pay the S6 off and sell it to recoup your money.

If you'd rather not, I'm pretty sure AT&T will give you trade in value for the S6, but if the screen is cracked there is no telling how little you'll get.
 
We were just going to sell his 6. I guess we could trade it in too but I was looking for a cheaper way to get a new phone due to my cracked screen problem.
