Another carrier has gotten on-board with the trade-in wave that has come in as of late. This time, AT&T is gearing up to launch a smartphone trade-in program that will let users trade old smartphones in to go toward new smartphones, accessories, or your monthly bill. It starts May 1st — that’s tomorrow, by the way — and it will give users a chance to receive at least $100 in credit for any working smartphone (and from any carrier) that is no older than three years old.
In a lot of cases, users might find themselves with even more than $100 depending on the smartphone, so if you aren’t interested in pedaling the device on sites like Craigslist, eBay or Amazon it’s a nice route to take. Be sure to stop into your nearest AT&T shop to see how much that paperweight you’re no longer interested in carrying is worth and see if you can’t walk away with something more shiny like an HTC One or a Samsung Galaxy S4.
