T-Mobile reveals Magenta Friday deals, offers free OnePlus 6T, Samsung Galaxy S9, iPhone XR

T-Mobile has just announced several great early Black Friday deals that might get you a free flagship smartphone from companies like Samsung, OnePlus and LG via monthly bill credits. The so-called Magenta Friday promotion will debut on November 16 and includes smartphones like Samsung Galaxy S9, LG V40 ThinQ, and OnePlus 6T.

In order to get any of the flagship smartphones for free, you'll have to add an additional line and trade-in an eligible device.

Here are all the devices that will be available for free starting this Friday:

Apple iPhone XR free;
Samsung Galaxy S9 free and Samsung Galaxy S9+ up to $750 off;
Samsung Galaxy Note 9 up to $750 off;
Samsung Galaxy S8 free;
Samsung Galaxy S8 Active up to $750 off;
LG G7 ThinQ free;
LG V40 ThinQ up to $750 off;
OnePlus 6T free.

Also, you'll have to trade in one of the following phones to get the devices listed above for free: Galaxy S7, S7+, Galaxy S8, S8+, S8 Active, Galaxy Note 8, Galaxy Note 5, Galaxy S6, S6+, LG V30, V30+, LG G7, LG V20, LG G6, OnePlus 5, 5T, 6, Google Pixel, Google Pixel XL, Google Pixel 2, Google Pixel, Motorola Z2 Force, and Motorola Z2 Play.

as a heads up, you wont be able to finalize the payments on the device until the very end of the 24 month period. This is basically you being locked to the device for 24 months because T-Mo wont give you the money outright. This is not exactly a deal to those who plan to switch devices next year.

Does anyone know if an existing customer can add a line then cancel that line? I really doubt this, but thought I'd throw it out there.

I once asked one of the workers at T-Mobile and they told me you would have to maintain the line for at least 6 months (can’t remember exactly if it was 6 months but it was somewhere around there) and then you would be able to cancel it but I’m not sure how that would affect the free phone offer . Hope this helped !

this is what you can do. Add the new line and get the new phone. then, wait a few weeks and cancel your old line and keep the new one. Sometimes they allow you to keep your old number. it depends on the CSR.

So...What about customers that might plan to switch? Are they just screwed out of the deal?

As long as T-Mobile requires me to switch from my Simple Choice plan to their Unlimited, no dice. I can get an iPhone on a regular EIP for $30 with a new line for $10 on my existing plan and still pay less than if I had 4 lines with the Unlimited.
