Earlier today, AT&T announced a redux of their Next plans bringing the options from 4 down to 2. Introducing the AT&T Next & Next Every Year plans: kicking off on June 8th. These will replace the Next 12, Next 18, Next 24, and Next w/ Down Payments. Let’s get into the details of the new plans.
The Next plan is more or less the same as the Next 24 plan as it splits the cost of a new device over 30 payments w/ the option to upgrade after 24. The Next Every Year plan is more or less closer to the Next 18 plan w/ better upgrade options. It is a 24-month payment plan w/ trade-in upgrades after 12 months. You won’t be able to pay off your phone in less than 24 payments though BTW.
With both plans, you will be able to make extra payments to pay off your phone sooner. You will also be able to drop 30% down on a device to shrink the monthly costs. You’ll still have to offer up the $20 activation fee for those who sign up for the new Next plans.
Is this a better deal for you guys or nah? Sound off.
