Yup, it's the AT&T Next program. I'm on it right now with my iPhone 6+, so at the end of the payments I have paid the phone off in full.

- Bedon292 12y agoIf you use Next to upgrade you are actually losing the money you pay each time you upgrade. The math works out better if you buy the phone straight up and resell it every time a new phone comes out which you want.
- mikeash 12y agoThe nice thing about Next is that you have the option. The upgrade option is a stupid option, but you don't have to take it. It's basically only there to trick suckers who can't do the math.
- btgeekboy 12y agoGiven that Next is effectively a 0% interest financing plan with no prepayment penalties, it's easy to compare the market rate for your used device vs. the amount of remaining payments you still owe and make the best choice from there. (That "best choice" could be driven by financial reasons, or by convenience.)
- urda 12y agoIF you upgrade through Next. There is nothing stopping you from selling it on the market after the fact. I don't pay any more than if I had bought it unlocked, but now I have small payments with 0% interest. That's a big win.
