91¹û¶³´«Ã½

An upgrade is when you buy a mobile device through 91¹û¶³´«Ã½ to replace a mobile device that's already using a line on your account.

You can upgrade by buying a new or certified pre-owned device, and paying full price or using device payments. (The device must be "upgrade eligible" to use device payments).

You can also replace a device on your account with a device you already own. Learn more on the Bring your own mobile device (BYOD) FAQs.

You can upgrade a device if your account is not past due and you bought the device you want to replace:

• At retail price - you can upgrade to a new device any time.
• With a device payment agreement - you can upgrade when any of these applies:
  • You paid off your device payment agreement.*
  • You do an early upgrade. Learn more about the early upgrade program.
  • You bought your device at a discount for signing a 2-year contract and that contract ended.

*When you pay off your device agreement, any monthly promotional credits you get for that device will stop.

To find the upgrade eligibility date for other devices, tap the device, then tap Check Upgrade Options.
