Dang, I just bought mine the other day at the Verizon store. :-\ Awesome deal though!

I got the email this morning. Hopefully going this afternoon to get a blue one!! This was my price point since it came out so late. And I have a line that wants upgraded and I won't lose my unlimited data!

 

[Adriaus]

Wow this deal is amazing. Any idea how long it's gonna last? I can't upgrade til December

Also, slightly off topic, think deals like this are going to pop up around December?

How would you keep unlimited data?

By switching the new phone he bought on his unlimited data plan.

I want to switch from my iPhone to the One, but I don't have an upgrade available. If I add an additional line to my family plan, can I switch numbers to keep my number on the new phone? Then could I cancel the line (new number) and pay the ETF? $350 ETF and $50 for the phone is still a lot cheaper that paying the $700 retail. Thoughts?

It's only until Saturday and it's possible to have deals like that in December wouldn't count on them to happen directly from Verizon though.

The best way is to instead paying an etf u can add a dumb phone with no data 10.00 a month and just keep it on that line. Way cheaper than paying an up front etf.

Hey central n ohios, could you go into a little more detail? I'm in the same boat as dartguy and am curious on the cheapest way to upgrade. I'm not quite up to speed on the dumb phone strategy.

Lol. This is my plan. I want the blue one. I can sell my iPhone for $425 at list so I'll be out of about $30.

Fill me in too. I have share evrythg plan so it'll add $40 to my bill. So if I switch it out to a dumb phone, it'll go to $10 a month?

Add a line to your account and buy the note 3 or whatever at the new line price. Then switch the new phone to your unlimited line and put the dumb phone on with no data. It will be about 10-14$ dollars.

No, with the share everything plan, new lines are 30$ for feature phones and 40$ for smart phones. You can however add a new line for 40$/mo and do a hardware swap onto the other line, then cancel the new line... that being said it wont just be 350$, you'll have the 30$ activation fee as well as the termination fee. but all in all its still not bad.

I was lucky enough to stroll into best buy this morning and get an HTC one blue for 2$ and some change, turns out i registered my line for a 50$ gift card with upgrade / activation sometime last year and it carried over this year hehe so I only had to pay taxes on this phone. love it. its an awesome phone for those not sure, I was debating between the one and the X but with the one being 50$ it was almost a no brainer as the features of the X i feel would grow old on me after a while and I really like the infrared capabilities of the one with my Chromecast, i'll eventually get rid of all my remote controls and just use my phone for everything.

TLDR; Great phone, great price, do it up.

I believe dumb phones are now $30/month on the share everything plans.

Good deal, stinks for me. Bought my one on verizonwireless website for $140 ten days ago. No price adjustment possible through Verizon. I could return and go to bst buy but the hassle of mailing back this phone and and the cost of paying the shipping and restock fee isn't worth it for me.

At that price I had to pull the trigger after dropping my GNex and breaking the screen. It was between this and the Moto X. The price, specs, and camera won the day.

Same phone I was trying to wait for but it's kinda hard to resist $50 for a phone that's normally $200

Probably the best $49.99 a person can spend right now.
Saw the blue, very nice but really not crazy about anodized anything....I would scratch it the first day.
