How do you find a brand new phone that came out in 2015/16? Who would hold onto it for that long?

This isn't 2013 where every other android one was crap.

This is serious question. Why do I need to joke? I don't know anyone who has or use of this brand, that is why I am asking.

I prefer not to buy used from that far back because my parents keep their phone for 4 - 5 years so if so the battery life doesn't hold well and updates are not up to date.

Tcl is a known brand and has been making smartphones for a few years just not under their own name.
This is a really good phone that can handle more than what your dad will throw at it so you don't need to worry about that.
The only thing you need to worry about is system and security updates which will only be 1 or 2 years max on this phone but other than that this phone is one of the best phones in terms of value for dollar.

I really don't think this phone worth 833$... you pay your TV yourself at this price, nothing is free, for example the Tcl 10 pro is 700$+tx at most carriers price but you can buy it outright for 260$ easily elsewhere...

I guess you missed the part of my post that said "new" and with "full warranty."

You posted a site that sells used devices.

They probably downvoted because the value of the Phone is far greater than the Value of the TV.

Do I have to be with a carrier's service or can I just buy the phone and still qualify? I'd like to just buy the phone, redeem the TV then sell the phone.

According to previous experience- TCL doesn't care. The only thing they care about is the phone getting returned, hence the 60days waiting period.

If you can pay off the phone- you're golden. But I'm pretty sure a lot of carriers will not sell the phone outright to you without some kind of MSP/Prepaid. It's best to check the T&C from the carrier side at this point- they seem to be super strict about it vs TCL who I phoned twice last time and did not care at all as long as I bought the phone and could prove via IMEI.

I have my old Oneplus 5t that came out in 2017. I flashed lineage os and it's running android 11. It has a bit faster benchmark scores then the Pixel 4a 5G.

Is it possible to upgrade to the TCL 6 series from the deal or is the upgrade only available for the tv size?

Last time WAS a series-6, so it was just a choice of size. This time, not sure. Since I'll likely be relegating this to a spare room, I think the series-4 is a fine compromise.

The way the system works is that you apply for the TV promo and give them the invoice information. They then confirm with the carrier that the phone was received as part of/during the time frame of the promotion before approving the TV to be shipped to you. IIRC, when I got a similar deal on a 10 pro through Koodo, I believe there was some kind of requirement to keep the phone for a minimum of 6 months.

Based on that, you need to get the phone from a carrier along with whatever penalties they have in place for breaking the contract on the phone which in most cases is going to be full MSRP + 20->40%.

TLDR.... probably not worth it if you think you're going to flip the phone and get a "free" TV.
Koodo 33GB UL T&T @ $48 (waiting on my tab to switch to a better/cheaper plan)
