T-Mobile's $25 Deal: 4 Lines, 4 Free Phones for Switchers

"T-Mobile's $25 Deal: 4 Lines, 4 Free Phones for Switchers" cover image

T-Mobile just dropped one of their most aggressive promotions yet, and it's the kind of deal that makes you do a double-take. Four phone lines, four brand-new devices, $25 per line (Android Authority). Too good to be true? The hook is simple, no trade-in requirement, which eliminates the usual device condition checks and compatibility wrangling that bog down carrier promos. And the timing lands cleanly if you're eyeing flagships like the iPhone 17 or Galaxy S25 (Android Authority).

This promotion is straight-up competitive warfare. T-Mobile has one target in sight, customers on Verizon and AT&T. It's not subtle positioning, it's a direct swing at the market leaders. They want switchers, period.

Bottom line: is this deal worth making the switch?

For families locked into Verizon or AT&T, the savings can be real, but do not look only at the headline number. T-Mobile's network has evolved, with 5G now reaching the vast majority of Americans (Senior Living). The performance gap that used to clearly favor the legacy carriers has narrowed in many places.

Skipping the trade-in requirement removes a major pain point (Kiplinger). No device inspections, no compatibility guesswork, no hoping a trade-in value actually shows up on your bill.

There is one catch to watch. The $25 price applies to the Essentials plan (Android Authority). If you need more hotspot data or premium features, an upgrade can push your monthly cost higher than the promo headline.

PRO TIP: Before switching, check T-Mobile coverage at your home, workplace, and the places you frequent. Add the connection fees and taxes to your math so your first-year savings comparison is honest. If it were my family, I'd run a week-long coverage check before porting numbers.

If you are happy with your current coverage and service, the savings alone may not outweigh the hassle and 24-month device credits. If you are trying to cut the bill and want current-generation flagships, this offer delivers real value and deserves a hard look.

Apple's iOS 26 and iPadOS 26 updates are packed with new features, and you can try them before almost everyone else. First, check our list of supported iPhone and iPad models, then follow our step-by-step guide to install the iOS/iPadOS 26 beta — no paid developer account required.
