It comes out the same as if you would have bought it outright. Do the numbers.

Trust me, I sat there for a long time the other day going over all the difference in plans. It's a solid setup. The money is no different.

I have 4 lines family and wife went from Android to Iphone. Bill went up $20/month for 2 years after a $50 fee. They didn't sneak it, you weren't listening and you thought you were getting a free phone.

How does getting a $699 product for $75 seem "reasonable"

Also: saw a T mobile commercial last night for 4 phone plan for $100 and they pay out your contract fee with other carrier. I'm thinking hard!

every time i have started a new contract, it has been pay $199 for whatever the latest phone is. so when trading in a near brand new s4 getting $125 for the phone seemed reasonable.

also no, paying $200 for the phone up front does not come out to the same as paying $699 over 2 years.

All depends on how/if the contract changes. (losing unlimited data etc).
