Best Buy deal (Verizon)

[Mike-Mike]

Looks like Best Buy has a new deal:

$100 Gift Card on all VZW Smartphones

JBL - SoundBoost Moto Mod Portable Stereo Speaker - Black

Incipio - offGRID™ 2220 mAh Moto Mod Portable Charger - Black

Might make me pull the trigger

I assume the "portable charger" is the battery mod? Not a bad deal, though the pre-order $200 off + speaker was a little better.

That's a pretty good deal - it may just sway me from the Pixel (I don't want to wait for the Pixel XL and have had my eye on the Force Droid)

I bought the Z force with a 150$ gift card. That made me pull the trigger.

Is the incipio the wireless charging variant?

Yes, it is.

So, $26 a month plus the speaker mod and the battery pack mod. So tempting.

Did I see somewhere that this Incipio battery mod could be charged by itself (not attached to the phone) with a wireless charger?

Yes, it can. I read that, too.

Can confirm incipio charges wirelessly by itself.

I ordered the bundle last night. However I didn't realize that Incipio has wireless charging so I bought the Tumi too.

I guess if the Incipio does work, I will just return the Tumi

Edit to add:

That link posted earlier I couldn't get to work to confirm if it had wireless charging. I looked at my order and it has:

Model: MT-382-BLK
SKU: 5437804

According to Amazon that model number has wireless charging

As far as I know, Best Buy only carries the wireless Incipio one.

 

[xweb10]

is this offer available in store?

That is correct. I've never seen any other Incipio battery mod at Best Buy but the wireless version.

Well I got my Moto Z Force Droid a day early. I absolutely love it. I also got the JBL speaker mod, Incipio has not come in yet.

I also took it to Verizon and had them install their flexible glass screen protector.

Did Verizon care that you bought it at best buy when you had them install the screen protector?

I did the same thing. Went to a corporate store and they didn't seem to care.

I did the same thing. Went to a corporate store and they didn't seem to care.

i also went to a corporate store. They didn't care at all. They said they would even activate it if needed, but we just swapped the sim from my S7 Edge.

i had the guy install the Flexible Glass, he messed the first one up and threw it away and grabbed a new one. It is on perfect, not sure I would even know it is on there if i didn't know he installed it

If I buy the Z Force through Best buy at full price ($799), when it arrives, do I just put in the SIM card that I currently have in my Droid Turbo and I'm good to go? Or do I have to reach out to Verizon?

What if you buy full retail with bestbuy store card+financing option? Or is this for new activations only?

I did an upgrade, so it is definitely not new activation only. However I do think it is only for device payment plans
