AT&T will give you at least $200 for your old clunker, if you trade it for a Galaxy S8

Now that the preorder period for the Galaxy S8 and S8+ is long gone, there are still deals and incentives trickling down the pipe, from both Samsung, and the carriers. AT&T, for instance, now offers a $200 minimum trade-in for your old phone when you buy the Galaxy S8. Needless to say, your clunker needs to be in a decent condition, and worth at least $20 for the swap to take place.

If the phone you are trading for a Galaxy S8/S8+ on AT&T's Next installment plans, or with select postpaid plans, is worth more than $200, you will be given the higher appraisal, of course. The money will be disbursed as instant credit, or an AT&T promo card in participating carrier locations, and the trade-in deal runs until 5/31. Hurry up, all in all it's a good way to get rid of an old phone, then move to the next best thing.
