Of course you'll be abe to exchange it. Just remember to bring enough funds to cover the full cost of the new phone.

It's a good question, but no one knows for sure. There's talk about the subsidized iPhone, but who knows whether the subsidy includes returning of used iPhones. AT&T would need to be able to resell the devices. Out with the old, and in with the new.

I think, at best, the answer to your question is very unlikely.

Are you seriously even giving it a 1% chance? There is just no way! I think it falls under the "It will be a cold day in hell" category.

You know, a thought occurred to me. We have a Kelley's Blue Book for used cars. Couldn't we have a Kelley's Blue Book for used iPhones?

To my knowledge, AT&T has never offered any kind of exchange program. If you don't plan to keep your old iPhone, you're better off trying eBay or Craigslist.

Your best chance for a discount on the next iPhone is if AT&T decides to subsidize it like they do with pretty much all their other phones. If your account is eligible, you'd have to renew for 2 years which would make you eligible for discounted pricing.

Haha, I think it would have to encompass all phones. But KBB is one huge and popular website, why should I have to take on phones too?
