How I rated this deal
While deals for “free” phones are never completely free, this T-Mobile offer is a strong one — getting four new phones without a trade-in required and no monthly fee outside of the service charge is a solid deal. If you’ve been thinking of moving your family over to T-Mobile and want to upgrade your phones, this is a great time to do so.
T-Mobile doesn’t have an end date for this offer listed, so we’re expecting to see it likely through the holiday season. The site does specify that the offers are for a limited time and subject to change.
