T-Mobile opens the deal season on the iPhone XR before pre-orders start
The conditions of the deal/s may have changed since the initial publishing of this post.
If you are fine with all those caveats, you can trade in your old iPhone 7 to iPhone 8+, the Galaxy S8, Note 8, Google Pixel/XL or Pixel 2/2XL, and an LG V30 or G7 for up to $390 in bill credits. The iPhone XR will then be had for $0 down and $20.84 per month for 36 months leading to a full pre-credit price of $749.99. If you get the maximum trade-in value, that will be applied in the form of $10.83 in bill credits per month towards the iPhone XR payment, essentially netting you the handset for about ten bucks a month.
Add a basic T-Mobile Essentials plan of $30 a month to the mix, and you reach the "four iPhone XR for just $40 a month per line" promise. Plenty of caveats, but if you like T-Mobile's service, and have been wondering what to do with your old phone before you get the iPhone XR, the first deal on Apple's newest handset will fit the bill.

BELLEVUE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) today announced it will offer iPhone XR, bringing the latest iPhone innovations to more people. Customers will be able to pre-order iPhone XR beginning at 12:01am PT on Friday, October 19 online at T-Mobile.com and in T-Mobile stores later that day. And, only at T-Mobile, when you trade in your eligible device, you can get 4 lines of unlimited AND iPhone XR for just $40/line per month with T-Mobile Essentials.
iPhone XR integrates breakthrough technologies from iPhone XS in all-screen glass and aluminum design featuring a 6.1-inch Liquid Retina display, the most advanced LCD in a smartphone, with wide color support and True Tone for a more natural viewing experience. iPhone XR brings the smartest and most powerful chip in a smartphone with A12 Bionic, a next-generation Neural Engine built for advanced machine learning in everything from photography to augmented reality, the TrueDepth camera system, faster Face ID, an advanced camera system that creates dramatic portraits using a single camera lens, long all-day battery life and six beautiful finishes; white, black, blue, yellow, coral and (PRODUCT)RED. This new design is splash and water resistant with a rating of IP67 and protects against everyday spills including coffee, tea and soda. *
iPhone XR is 600 MHz enabled, meaning T-Mobile customers can get expanded network coverage and capacity in 1,250 cities and towns across the US, including Puerto Rico. iPhone XR also brings Dual SIM to iPhone through the use of digital eSIM. **
T-Mobile Essentials is perfect for those who just want the basics: unlimited talk, text and smartphone data in the U.S. for only $30 per line for a family of four with autopay. Starting Friday, well-qualified customers with trade-in and T-Mobile’s new 36-month Equipment Installment Plan (EIP) can get 4 lines of unlimited T-Mobile Essentials and four iPhone XR for just $40 a month per line with autopay.
For those who want more, T-Mobile ONE is the Un-carrier’s most popular option and just $10 more per line, taxes and fees included, for a family of four with autopay. T-Mobile ONE includes all the extras – the industry’s best travel benefits, a personal Team of Experts for all your customer care needs, Netflix included for families, unlimited mobile hotspot and so much more. Starting Friday, well-qualified customers with trade-in and T-Mobile’s new 36-month Equipment Installment Plan (EIP) can get 4 lines of T-Mobile ONE and four iPhone XR for just $50 a month per line with autopay.
And for members of the military, their families and their small businesses, the offer is even sweeter with T-Mobile ONE Military.

That means with trade-in, it’s just $35/month per line (with autopay) for four lines of unlimited AND four iPhone XR.
