  • Two-thirds of US iPhone owners have a 2+ year old device, are prime for upgrades

    Only thing keeping me from upgrading my iPhone is the ATT Next Plan. I want to keep my unlimited Data - and frankly don't want to pay monthly for a Phone. Currently 2 lines unlimited Data - $130 - if I switch to Next Plan it bumps to $150+ and I lose my unlimited data

    Come on ATT and the likes. This is a direct result of your stupid ATT Next style plans. I want a discount on a phone and I want to keep my unlimited data. Not interested in paying monthly for the phone on top of the my service with a limited data usage. I used to upgrade every year... 
    Well that's stupid.

    It used to be ridiculously difficult and expensive to upgrade yearly. Now, THANKS TO AT&T NEXT and similar plans, it is now cheaper and easier.

    And LOL@ your "Unlimited" data plan. I'm having a much better and cheaper experience than you on AT&T by using their newer plans. You're obviously completely unaware of the cost structure today, and don't realize you are being taken.
    Actually found the system worked quite well. Two people one account. One person gets the hand me downs. Trade in the outdated phone, usually would spend a little less then $90 a year for a brand new phone and got to keep my Unlimited Data plan. 

    Scoped out the ATT Next Plan - would cost me upwards of $30 more dollars a month, with less data.
