I might mention when my last phone conked out, I went to AT&T to buy a new one and guess what??? They don’t sell them. A storeroom full of phones and not ONE for sale. I had to renew my plan, which I did. It’s legal . . . i guess.

I had Iphones for years. Sold my biz, ditched the phone and all the contacts. Now have some samsung phone I barely use and $14/month service through Tello.

So glad I’m free of a lot of this.

Marking. I currently use pure Talk, but a new phone might lure me back to Verizon.

I have the Iphone 12 Pro Max. It’s bean dropped on concrete and tile so many times it’s a wonder it still functions.

Need a new one soon.

I’m still using my iPhone 11 Pro, and it’s doing just fine. The iPhone 14 deal does sound interesting. I have to check it out.

I scanned the entire article.

Not one of the carriers quotes a monthly plan price.

My sense is that no matter what they tell you, you never know the full price of your plan until the first bill arrives.

“The only way to get a free iPhone 14 is via a carrier plan — no one is handing them out with no strings attached.”

Then it’s not free. Free means without cost or obligation.

What’s the saying? “If you’re not paying for the product, then you are the product.”

You can buy unlocked new and used phones from Apple and 3rd-party selling sites, and then use them on any cellular network.

I've had several used iPhones, but currently have a new iPhone 15.
