Advice on trading up to a new iPhone SE - celliott - 07-13-2020

My wife has been using an old 6s and wants a new SE. Verizon career. We're going to pay in full with the order- no monthly payment.

Options ordering directly from Apple:
- Verizon specific phone
- Unlocked phone

I've never bought a phone outside of Verizon and I'm not totally sure how it all works.

Any input from anyone?

Thanks.

I'm home recovering a week since having quad bypass surgery. Not a lot of fun, so I'm working on things to keep me busy. This is my second day home.

Hope you recover quickly!

As to buying outside your carrier.... I'm with AT&T but have bought my last 2 phones from Best Buy and Walmart respectively and registering the phone with AT&T and getting them working was a cinch. I doubt you will have a problem.

ouch x 4.

Yeah, it doesnt matter where you buy it from.

No way to get a BOGO deal at Verizon? You dont need a new phone? Wink

Get well soon!

I'm wanting an SE myself for a replacement of my 7.

unlocked. you never know what carrier options will come down the line and if she's moving from a 6s then she will probably hold onto the SE for a long time.

No phone advice, I'm about to upgrade my 6S+ that's been a real trooper for me. I need to get one of those SE's for my sister, who's complaining that her new Jitterbug is worthless. An SE will be a HUGE jump up for her.

Oh, and get well soon!
