Verizon leak shows VZ Edge upgrade program: trade your phone in once you've paid off half of it Mobile
By Michael Gorman posted Jul 15th 2013 6:26PM 22
T-Mobile's been grabbing a lot of headlines lately with its consumer-friendly handset deals and upgrade programs, but it appears that Big Red has similar ideas. The folks at Droid Life have acquired a Verizon document detailing a new VZ Edge program that'll allow folks to trade in their phones once they've paid off 50 percent of the purchase price. To join the program, Verizon will merely require a monthly fee of unknown amount, and in return, folks can get their upgrades early fee free and sans contract. When will customers get the option to do so? According to the doc, launch is scheduled for Q3, August 25th, to be exact. So, if Verizon can stick to its schedule, its customers are just under six weeks away from being free from the tyranny of the new every two upgrade cycle.
The good about this is you can I assume pay a 2yr contract like downpayment for a device then when you are ready for a new joint sell your old device in the streets and pay off the 50% balance. Still wont be as cheap as Tmobile but for those that VZW is the best network in your city, this is somewhat a sign of hope.
in the article that tetsujin posted there is also a link for a similar case for the s4Anyone have a recommendation for a slim GS4 case like that one for the HTCOne?

Of course.. the companies aren't gonna do it unless there is money involved they will always be on the winning end. But for someone who upgrades their phone often it's worth it imo.

AT&T needs to hop on that bandwagon
AT&T is following T-Mobile's lead and introducing a new upgrade eligibility program for its customers called 'AT&T Next'. With Next, AT&T customers can purchase a new smartphone or tablet every twelve months with no activation, upgrade or financing fees.
Customers purchase a smartphone or tablet with no money down, making monthly payments equal to 1/20th of the retail cost of the device. After 12 payments, they can trade the device in and upgrade to a new one with no other fees. Or, after 20 payments, they own the device outright.
“With AT&T Next, customers can get the newest smartphone or tablet every year with no down payment. That’s hard to beat, and it’s an incredible value for customers who want the latest and greatest every year,” said Ralph de la Vega, president and chief executive officer of AT&T Mobility.
For customers purchasing a 16GB iPhone 5, they would pay $32.50 per month for 12 months, and could then upgrade to the latest iPhone -- trading in the previous device. They would pay $390 over that time, with the phone being bought back for the equivalent of $260. If the customer makes the 20 monthly payments, they can upgrade to a new phone and keep the old one.
Because there is no activation or upgrade fee, customers save $36 on activating a new line. Depending on the customer's needs, this may be a better option than the old AT&T upgrade system, which requires customers wait 24 months between fully subsidized upgrades.
AT&T customers who still have grandfathered unlimited data plans are fully eligible to participate in this program.
T-Mobile recently announced a similar upgrade plan, and a leak from Verizon today suggested they also had something like it in development.
isn't this basically like leasing a phone?
