The reason I'm asking is because I see a lot of people pre-ordering and they say it's $199. I wanted to see if anyone was still on contract or would still be on a contract by the time the Evo comes out. I wanted to see if the people on contract were still getting the phone for $199 from BB or the shack. I know the $199 is for a $150 discount with a 2 year plan and an up-front $100 rebate.
On-contract as in "not eligible for an upgrade?" I know that RadioShack is not taking pre-orders for full retail purchases, and Best Buy is gouging the price to $600 for those not on contract. I'm going to pre-order from Sprint when they start accepting in-store (some places actually already have).

I wonder what would be the price if I tell BB that I'm contract now but I want to renew (restart my 2yr contract). Would they just take $100 off the retail price? Guess I have to go in to BB sometime tomorrow to see how this all works. Maybe I'll try the shack as well.
Can they really inflate the price that high when retail (According to sprint) is suppose to be $450? I guess Sprint will have to take my money then and I'll have to wait 10-14 weeks for a rebate.

The $100 rebate is only for new contracts and people with their 22-month full upgrade. The 12-month (non-premier) upgrade is just $75 off retail.
And yes, Best Buy can gouge all they want to.
Under Contract with TMO
I'm under contract with T-Mobile but with still 5 months left. Going to terminate the contract (only $100). Rather cough up the money than continue to use my G1 for the next five months. I want the Evo NOW.
Same here. I'm upgrading from my hero (which I got in December ) so I think your better seeing the device in a sprint store then buying it full out.
im dropping my plan to the lowest ($20/mo.) on vzw and already preordered from radio shack

what about ppl adding another line? I pre paid on the phone already and would go back and get my money if I can't get the phone by adding another line. None of my other 2 lines are able to upgrade since I just did that 6 months ago.

Adding another line is considered a new activation therefore you would get the phone for $199.
Where is everyone getting this 600$ quote from. At my BB the guy said he "thinks its like 600" which means that he was going off the rumoured off contract price.I don't see BB raising the price of a phone higher than it's MSRP.

Oh you don't? Go to Best Buy and try to buy a Hero or a Moment off contract and enjoy paying $600 or $630, respectively!
I preordered as a current customer without an upgrade available for my phone number. I just upgraded another line on my account, and will swap hardware after I have the phone in my hand.
could somebody help me figure this out a bit?
i have the HTC Hero, bought and signed with a new 2 year contract in november 2009.
so is there any way i could get the $199 price on the evo? i think you can get the EVO but you have to sign another 2 year contract even though i'm only 6 months in?
i did it today
i per-order mines today from radioshack for 50bucks..down,,i'm hype,,for the phone,i have 1 coming my way soon..

No. You are stuck paying the full price. I am a smart one though. I had a Sprint account back in the day, left with good standing. I ran into credit issues and about a year back had to pay a deposit so I just went on my father's plan with my fiancee instead. Well, I just got my Hero in October, 2 yr contract. Called up Sprint. They told me to get the Evo in my name, new account with a new phone number. Then afterward, get my dad and transfer my Hero line into my account. I get the 2 yr new activation price for the Evo, I keep my number and I don't have to pay the ETF. Life is f-ing sweet!

Yes but I don't pay for those lines. The owner's of the lines do. I will now be on my own plan, by myself with no ties to them. This isn't the solution for everyone but I figured maybe if someone is in the same situation it may help them.
Radio Shack would not let me upgrade, because I am not eligible until June 1st for upgrade. I just went over to Best Buy and signed right up.
Also, the rep at Radio Shack was not clear as to whether or not I would get the phone on Launch day or not. The Best Buy mobile manager told me for sure that I would get it then. I wanted to try Radio Shack first, simply because of the $20 of free accessories, but hey, you win some, you lose some.
then again, in the case of the Evo, I think we all win
It's like they timed this specifically for Palm Pre Premier owners... Friggin awesome.

If you go through sprint, you'll probably have to renew your 2 yr contract so that it starts up at June 4th, or whenever you get the EVO. You won't get the $150 upgrade discount, but you'll get the $100 mail-in-rebate though.
I believe this is what you'll go through because this is what I'm thinking will happen for me. I too bought the Hero in Nov. 09. But in the past when renewing a contract, Sprint has always just restarted my contracts when I wanted a new contract.
Do to the retail cost that BB and the shack might, I'm going to go through sprint, but not the sprint store. If you go through the sprint store, you'll have to pay the $36 activation fee. Most of the phones that you buy online through Sprint, don't charge an activation fee, so I'm thinking (hoping) this will be through for the EVO when they start selling them online.
I'm still on contract and pre-ordered with best buy, was quoted $199
Well i was able to get the vibrant for Tmobile for 64.99 with 2 year commitment with $20 unlimited data loyalty plan, No upgrade/ activation fee, and free 3 day shipping and intant rebate. I was offered same deal on all 5 of my lines but will only take it up on one since i want to save the other upgrades for future phone releases. Only bad part is i wont get the vibrant until tuesday .
Im thinking of picking up one at tmobile tomorrow for retail price which is$439 to play with until mine comes in and then just return it, but i dont think tmobile will like that much.
Just really happy to get such a great deal and looking foward to android coming from the iphone platform

He has 5 lines. Phone companies always treat people based on how much they pay a month. The more you pay on your phone bill the more likely you are to get deals and fee's waived.
Also I see this confusion a LOT. $439 vs $499. It seems the $439 price is only for current customers, or people well into their contract. The $499 is for everyone else.

Ive been with tmo for 8 years and have 5 lines so im sure that helped. Basicly all my lines are out of contract and had previous considered going to ATT for new iphone. Tmobile offered free upgrades on all lines for any phone they had at that time with all fees waived. But they didnt have the vibrant out yet, so they told me to call once it was out to see what deal i could have. I called once it became availabe and they offered to waived all fees, bump up shipping and and additional $100 credit to regular upgrade. They ended up giving me additional $135 because i mentioned my upgrade only said 164.99, which was different from their $199, so they just added $35 to match the price.
Tmobile takes care of their customers! I have no issues being on a commitment with them.
Nice ^^^

I paid $499.99
i paid 499.99 also, and i've been with t-mobile for 9 years with 4 phones.
got one offered for $429+taxes (~$460) as my early upgrade price (i bought my mt3g aug last year).
moved on to the retentions folks who brought it down to $249 + taxes, which is only $50 more than a brand new contract, i was sold on that. had them make the note on my account and picked it up in-store locally for the same price! =)
loving the phone so far, big upgrade from the mytouch3g.
can't wait to get CM6 on this baby.
btw, im having market issues currently - "download failed" error. was initially able to download a couple apps, but none now despite several reboots.

Wassup guys,
Im very interested in buying a G2, ive been using my HD2 for 3 months now, and have been running android on it. But ive decided its time for a new phone. I am very interested in buying the G2 how much did it cost you out the door? Right now i have $180 so im trying to come up with the rest but im just wondering how much more is it going to cost me. Im due for an upgrade on t-mobile so im updating my line i live in california.
Thanks,
Cali
Really depend on the plan you have. I have even more plus plan with $295 credit available and its gonna cost me $257 and some change when I get it on Wednesday and heard that radio shack has it for 149 with 2year contract, so best to go there for you since you will be upgrading on a contract. I don't have a contract

it cost me a hug and a thank you. got it as a present
a kidney and half of a liver... also a quarter of my pay check... also twice of what my wife allows me to spend in a month ><
It cost me $100 in birthday money, $140 for about 2 hours of computer sidework and $7 out of my own pocket.
I live outside the US, so I could only depend on some conscious importers or I will have to take the pricier Desire Z
Suppose the no contract full price in the States is 500, that's reasonable enough for me, just hope the shipping plus markup won 't be extorting
i talked to some guy that worked at tmobile on the phone he told me that it was gonna cost me $250 for the phone w/ a $50 mail in rebate that ill get back in the mail, then $18 for an upgrade fee, and around $40 in sales tax.. so around $300... did anyone pay this ammount? im on a family plan and im upgrading
and i checked radio shacks website and its not even on there lol

Cost me $99 + tax. I had to renew a 2 year contract. That's before rebate, so possibly could go down to $49 and tax.

A few over on the Slickdeals forums managed to get it for that price by going through and threatening to cancel first.
I got mine for $149 through tmobile. I called the retention dept over at tmobile and told them i got a flyer stating $100 off any phone upgrade. They did some digging and then told me it can only be applied to existing phones. The rep then said they could offer me a better deal and that's how the $149 came about. And payments are spread over 4 months.

I got it for that price. It was 176 down and 3 or 4 monthly payments of $40. Then a $50 rebate on top of that.
And that's cuz I upgraded to the HD2 in March when it launched, BOGO.
Did the EIP, but it'll cost me 552 total.
Around 500, which is what I'll be paying extra over the course of two years if I switched from the Even More Plus plan to the Even More (if I could even do that, but don't tell me I can't because that'll shatter my dream) as it would $20 extra per month for 2 years ($480).
I paid half my fortune (broke college student, heh). All my savings are gone, time to save up for another 2 years.
It's cool, T-Mobile announced HSPA+ in San Jose today
Not entirely true. Depends on how you do it. If you upgrade, yes, its 199. But with my situation, I just added a new line to my account, and it was 149.00

I pre-ordered the Atrix using AT&T's web store for $320.99 after tax. I assumed the packaging would include a $100 mail in rebate since I'd see the phone advertised for $199 everywhere else.
When I got the phone, there was no rebate material in the box.
I then called AT&T and asked for the $100 rebate. They said I needed to go to an AT&T store to get the rebate. This afternoon, I went to an AT&T store and they said there is no rebate unless you buy the dock. I called AT&T again to complain and they explained I would have to return my phone and buy a new one to get the $199 price. Unfortunately, my sister threw out my packaging so it seems I now spent $320 on a $200 phone. Major bummer.
Does this seem idiotic to anyone else?
So, were any of you guys screwed in a similar way?
I wasn't upgrade eligible but the AT&T website automatically gave me the early upgrade price of $299 and also an instant online discount of $100 so I paid 217 total with taxes. I was actually ready to buy off contract for $499 but it wouldn't give me the option. I recommend you call back and try another rep. I've heard of others that have received the discount after complaining.
i never buy from att anymore, i buy from best buys. they charge you for the phone at the same price as att but without needing a rebate, plus they tax you only on that amount not on the full retail like att does.
Costco. 119.00 plus tax. They even threw in a cheap wired headset and holster.

originally quoted down to $299 over the phone for a "special" early upgrade price because I am not eligible til 2/12.
I ended up having the opportunity to port a dummy business line and have my boss pay for the pay increase. They allowed me to use the line activation to get the atrix on my line and then buy a go phone for the new line. I brought in an amazon print out for $149 and they said they couldn't match but would give me 25 off. so all in all I made out great. LOVE the phone btw. makes my crappy completely forgettable.

was due for an upgrade like a year ago, my iphone crapped out on me and I had no money. Went into brandsmart and got an HTC Aria for a penny with my contract renewal, the lady didnt feel like breaking my $20 bill so I got the aria for free this past November. When the atrix came out my next upgrade wasnt till 2012, but when I looked at it on att website it was giving it to me for $200, so I ordered it. I then sold my HTC Aria on ebay and recouped my $200 thus making the Atrix free. this phone is incredible!!!!! couldnt be happier!!!
Always check best buy first no matter who u use. Usually any mail in rebates any carrier gives u will be an instant rebate at best buy.

Wow this has been a pretty enlightening threat. I've learned to never pre-order and just buy from Costco instead.
My debacle was resolved last night. I found my packaging in the trash at home and brought it to a local AT&T corporate store. They said I had to return the phone and buy a new one in order to get my $100+ back. All told it was a pretty ridiculous process but at least I ended up buying it for $199 eventually. Also, now i have another Atrix I need to root and setup to my liking. Oh well.

$149 from local AT&T store. Wasn't upgrade eligible yet, but they agreed to allow early upgrade and price match local retailers, and Radio Shack was running them at $149. AT&T website had them at $199 at the time.
$106.49, tax included, on launch day (Feb 22) at an AT&T store.
Had a 100 dollar off upgrade on one of the lines of my family plan.
540 USD (include tax) at AT&T-Miami store (No contract).
Costco: $119+tax.
Went back a week later to get a new Atrix (old one was messed up) and saw that they had it for $99. I got $20 back on my CC. In the end:
$99+tax. (Costco price for upgrade or new line).

I just pre-ordered mine today, the sales rep couldn't tell me the full price of the phone today bc its unknown untill Friday morning. I know sprint will be seling it for $720 but wonder if bestbuy will increase the price to the point were the $200trade-in will be worthless.

It wouldn't shock me. Personally, I've never seen the point in buying phones through Best Buy unless you want their device protection program. It's usually cheaper to just buy it directly from the carrier, either online or in-store.

The price is $799, I ordered mine off best buys website. My total price was just a little over $900 with expedited shipping. They are supposed to price match Amazon's price at $720 when I get the phone. Then I will get my $200 gift card for my trade in when I go into the store. Long story but last Monday they couldn't take pre-orders for Sprint so I had to order online, the manager told me to come back in with my trade in to get my gift card after I received the phone.

Why on earth would you pay $900 for a Note 4? If you wait like a day after the release date you'd see some on ebay for probably $500 where people paid the $300 & renewed their contract just to flip it and make $200 cash.
Hell, even if you setup a new line, paid $299.99 for the phone under a new 2 year contract then canceled the line and paid a $350 ETF, that's still $650 instead of $900.
My note 4 is arriving tomorrow and it's free. Samsung is giving me $200 for a trade in and Sprint is giving me $150 for changing to them from Verizon. Contract price $299.99 = me making $50.

That's what I had to pay up front since best buy told me they were out of pre-orders. Once I get the phone I'm supposed to take it to my local store and they will price match Amazon at $720 then I'll get a $200 gift card to make my total $520. I don't do contacts anymore with cell phone providers. I prefer to buy my phones out right and new. I've been burnt on eBay and craigslist!
You are the only person I've heard of that has said anything about buying a note 4 off contract and getting the 200 go. Everywhere else has said it has to be on a contract agreement, via contract or easy pay.

I don't know who "everywhere else" is but my local best buy store and the best buy mobile post purchase support line have confirmed to me that it is available if you buy the phone outright. I guess I won't find out for sure until I this weekend (I'm out of town). If for some reason I don't get the gc, the price is just not worth it to me. I'll return it and get the nexus 6, which I may do anyway.

I will confirm or deny this. I will keep you posted.
I just came from BestBuy and the $200 incentive is a gift card that you get when you buy a Note 4 + bring a working phone to tradein and either put it on an existing line or a new line. The giftcard can be used in any transaction you want like toward the note4 transaction a new TV, Laptop, etc..
Something i forgot to ask is if BB will match Amazone outright price????...... i heard that BB only match "with contract price" ...if some can let me know i will apreciated!!!
Thanks!!
note; the only situation that the gift-card can't be use toward is when choosing SPRINT EASY PAY.... the reason as to why is long and confusing... sorry!!!
