Any upcoming holiday phone deals?
=======================

Thanks for replies to my posting.

We know some new models shows up during holidays, so prior models goes on clearance.

Are there any such pre-paid phones?

I find you folks publish black Friday phone deals. Some retails start their holiday sale in October.

Did the holiday phone deals begin to show up?

Thanks for sharing.

....Are there any such pre-paid phones?....

Why do you only mention prepaid phones? Most which are locked to a specific carrier/network.

Of course there will be holiday deals upcoming. The problem is that such information is considered proprietary and not released until a few days before such promotions. When I was working for Verizon, the phone release dates and pricing was unavailable until corporate decided to notify us. I seriously doubt anyone on this forum can give you specific information.

For example, Black Friday pricing and specials might not be available until the Monday of that week (for example).

I've been wanting to get a Pixel 3a, and though I don't have any knowledge of anything, I think there is a pretty good chance we could see some nice sales on this phone near black friday, because some places are already knocking $50 off right now, plus google just released their new Pixel 4.

Here is a link to the currently announced Black Friday promotions for cell phones at Bestbuy :https://www.bestbuy.com/site/black-f...t1568908277830.

This is only what has already been announced by them. Could be more upcoming promotions.

Target has a few Black Friday prepaid deals too:

Total Wireless Samsung Galaxy J3 Orbit $29.99 (reg 59.99)
Total Wireless Samsung Galaxy J7 Crown $44.99 (reg 89.99)
Prepaid Airtime Buy one, get one 20% off

I've added a page to my site listing all the Black Friday prepaid and unlocked deals. There's just Best Buy and Target so far but I plan to keep it updated as new deals get published.

The link to my site is in my sig. On the site, click Black Friday in the top menu to see the deals.

Wow! $30 for a Samsung J7 (assuming a J7 Crown; wasn't there another earlier version?). Even better than the $45 Target is asking for it. Might make me a Samsung user yet.

Thanks for the tips!

Very helpful. Thanks Yeswap. I know they're obsolete at this point, but I was hoping to find a Black Friday deal on an iPhone 6S or 7. I'll check the site and maybe find a vendor out there who's trying to get rid of some old inventory at a discount.

Thanks for your info/link.

Are there phones career locked? Are there any loop holes to work wit MVNOs?

Am I able to sue any of the deal phones with MVNO such as FREE-up plans?

Thanks for sharing.

[Yeswap]

All the carrier branded phones are locked.

Phones from one TracFone brand can usually be used on another TracFone brand on the same network. I.e. Total Wireless phones on TracFone Verizon.

Phones from TracFone brands with model numbers ending in DL usually work on any network on other TracFone brands.

AT&T Prepaid phones work on AT&T MVNOs.

BestBuy has some BF deals on unlocked phones that will work on FreeUp.

That's not the ad, that's a native ad disguised as a news article.
