T-mobile insurance is $8 a month, this is $10 a month and you can still get the upgrade if you lose or break your phone, you just have to pay a deductible.

Still not a good deal
Like I said its cheaper to just sell your old phone and put up the rest of the money for the new phone outta pocket
How you gonna make me give you my old phone to "upgrade" but im still paying full price for the new phone
Example:lets say I want the s4, I can easily get $400 for my note 2 then add $180 to that and cop a s4 so in the end I only paid $180 for the s4 and I own it(no bs $20/month until the phone is paid off)
With this shyt I gotta pay $10/month for 6 months($60), give them my Note 2 (-$400), and pay full price for the S4($580)
I don't see how people think this is a good deal

In your example you've already bought the phone in full before selling it, this is for people who only willing to pay that introductory price to upgrade their phone.
It's like leasing a car, great for people who always want the latest and greatest.
Upgrade twice a year?
I buy one new phone every 6 years.
so you're still rocking a flip or a candy bar?

I have no strings on me.
What T-Mobile needs to do is say " If you join us, we'll pay your termination fee"...Probably will never happen.. But people will not switch until their contracts are up.....by then they may not care or they get a discount on Upgrades anyway.
If people do the math on ETF vs their savings on T-Mo plans, they should come out even after 6 months.
Assuming they sell their old phones on craigslist, swappa or ebay or something.

The more I think about this.. The more I think it's better to just stick with a Nexus phone and sell it
When the new one drops

That because slick dealers are looking to game the system. This is a good system if you upgrade often. Look at like you are leasing a car. It does include insurance on the phone. So really its $2 a month.
Do you have proof?
My friend that's worked there for 10 years told me the other day. He said they are gonna rehaul all the plans
