Got an email stating that Sprint is offering 150 off, guess I can do that and sell the Amazon Echo Dots to get the price close to what HTC.com is offering with the HTC 10 buy back, if that's possible.

 

I am not too fond of the blue, probably will go with black.

 

Matching the HTC.com price through Sprint will be tough. 

 

Sprint is doing $696 plus the 2 echo dots and $150 trade in.

HTC.com is doing $649 + $50 off promo code + $250 trade in.

Ordered mine thru the Elevate link so early shipping. Would prefer to have the black one but since my 10 and A9 are both bricked and my M8 is wore out I decided not to wait.

The A9 died from being dropped several times a day without a case on it for close to a year (think I broke the charge port but to lazy to fix it). The 10 I managed to kill poking around in the modem and did something I shouldn't have.

How quickly will you receive the phone?

With the U Ultra they sent them out a week or two ahead of the rest but there's no set date.

Nice, I will see if I can join the Elevate group and jump on that early shipping bandwagon.

And now I've managed to break the screen on my M8 so hopefully they ship it soon before this gets worse. It's my last backup phone.

That appears to be a similar thing that happened to the Sony Xperia XA Ultra I had a while ago. Sony replaced it with a new one though.

Ohhhh man some Bo Berry Biscuits would be amazing right now!!

 

So I'm gonna wait a little bit on the U11 to see if Sprint puts out a nice deal on it like they're doing with the S8 (2 for 1 Lease deal) and the LG G5 (50% off). Especially since HTC.com isn't letting me do the TeamHTC trade in with my HTC 10  <_<

Mine broke from dropping my pliers on them. Luckily it landed handle first so it didn't shatter the glass.

 

If anyone is looking for some good side cutting pliers these from Southwire work great for cutting, hammering, prying and breaking phones.

Ah, they're in Sprint yellow!

 

Anyways, I hadn't seen the break in the phone until closer inspection after my post response to you. I just noticed the display image looking like what happened with my device after apparently using too much water on the cloth I was using to clean the display.

 

Although that is definitely bad that happened to your HTC. Hopefully your new device will be more durable, like the stronger devices used in tests conducted by JerryRigEverything.

Emmmm, fried chicken.  I need to get my screen repaired on my Nexus 6P again.  I know your pain!  I've never had Bojangles fried chicken.  It's on my TO DO LIST.   :drool:

      I think the push for them is adding US Mobile as a MVNO with a priority data plan.  Ultimately, making people more aware of priority would allow them (and other carriers) to differentiate themselves from MVNOs like Consumer Cellular that advertise the same coverage. n77 has dramatically reduced the need for priority service at Verizon where the mere functioning of your phone was in jeopardy a couple of years ago if you had a low priority plan like Red Pocket. Only have heard of problems with T-Mobile in parts of Los Angeles. AT&T fell in between. All had issues at large concerts and festivals, or sporting events if your carrier has no on-site rights. Edit: Dishes native 5g network has different issues: not enough sites, limited bandwidth. Higher priority would help a few. Truth is they can push phones to AT&T or T-Mobile.

      Tracfone AT&T sims went from QCI 8 to 9 as well a couple years ago. I'm pretty neutral towards AT&T's turbo feature here, the only bad taste left was for those who had unadvertised QCI 7 a couple months ago moved down to 8. In my eyes it would have been a lot better for AT&T to include turbo in those Premium/Elite plans for free to keep them at QCI 7, while also introducing this turbo add on option for any other plans or devices. As it stands now only a handful of plans can add it, and only if you're using a device on a random list of devices AT&T considers to be 5G smartphones.

      My Red Pocket AT&T GSMA account was dropped to QCI 9 about a year ago.  Most recently 8 for the last few years prior.  Voice remains at 5.

      https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/05/att-announces-7-monthly-add-on-fee-for-turbo-5g-speeds/ Hopefully we don't ever see T-Mobile do something like this. Based on how I was treated with my Credit Limit, it's definitely not the same company it was before the merger, and it's entirely possible they'd try it.
