What it really costs you
It's yours
You own the phone outright. There's no contract and nothing to hand back.
Sell it back when you want
After 1 year, 2 years or never. We'll always make you an offer.
Unlike a lease
With a lease or upgrade plan you return the phone and never own it.

Estimate based on what we pay today for the same phone one or two years older, in Good condition. Your actual offer depends on its condition when you send it in. Prices update every night.
Is the Pro Max worth paying more?
For most people it comes down to battery. The Pro Max runs about six hours longer on video. If you end most days under 30%, that's the upgrade you'll notice. Speed and camera quality are the same on both.
