I traded in a Samsung Gravity for a Nord N200 at t-mobile. I also traded in an LG V20 that I shattered when I was taking a picture and I face planted on a rock, broke my phone, my nose, and then fell into the alluvial falls at Rocky Mountain National park. So they gave me $250 for a shattered water damaged phone
Just go to T-mobile website and look at phones. The 4 phones that are free with any trade in are listed "As low as $0" The listing shows the regular price of the phone and so does your cart until you start the checkout process.
This is the picture I took, and my face.

nice pic. . the one of the falls isn't too bad either. .
NORD looks like a nice phone
octa core processor, 5G capable, 1080p/Full HD screen, 3 or 4 camera lenses, AND a standard headphone jack. .
get a kick out of these phone snob reviewers online.. . they're never happy with anything hah

I picked these up for 2 lines we never use because it was cheaper than getting new sim cards for the lines. Sim cards are $35 and the phones were $17 in sales tax.
I'm not a phone snob but I do tend to buy higher end phones after they get cheap. My current phone is a dual screen lgv60 that I only paid $550 for. After 6 months the usb/charging port quit working because of the way the 2nd screen connects. I sent it in for warranty and the new one broke again even though I rarely used the 2nd screen.
I'm done paying for high end phones because of this phone and was looking for a reasonably priced phone when I found this deal.

yeah think had a salesman at BESTBUY try to sell me a ONE PLUS phone last year. .
think that was the company anyway. salesman was saying that nerds in the know liked 'em lol . . . and you could get a metal phone for like $600 or so price point. .
but if you ever wanted to try and sell it. . . guess you would limit your potential buying pool. . to only nerds in the know? lol
seems like we're far enough down the technology road with this stuff. . to where it is going to get increasingly hard to get people to shell out $1,000+ for a phone
guess it won't stop manufacturers from trying. .
wonder how long folding screen phone manufacturing will continue. . .

For years my hobby was rooting phones and hacking smart cards. Most phones required a computer to root but the One Plus can be rooted just by installing a file in recovery mode. It kind of ruined the hobby.
I setup those phones and they're nice phones. No wireless charging, the camera is not very good, and its not as responsive as a high end phone but it's 1/5 the price.
I won't use it as a daily phone but I certainly could if I needed to.
