I have to admit that there is a very slight advantage to Verizon's geographic coverage, but it is not that big a difference, and certainly not enough to pay Verizon prices. I know about the geographic coverage in real time because my physical SIM is Xfinity Mobile (Verizon MVNO).

The T-Mobile main line is an eSIM.

Are you grandfathered in on the old Simple Choice plan?

T-Mobile supports eSIM officially, now.

You no longer have to pretend you're not doing an eSIM but coincidentally providing the EID instead of the other numbers. You can say "eSIM" now and they won't hang up on you.

The iPhone might be the part of this keynote I'm least interested in.

I'm expecting some more service information and at least one or two more products.

Also: Apple Watch 5 or Apple Watch 4S? There have been zero hardware leaks on AW

I must've missed the *

because that's going to kill iPhone X, XS, and XR resale values

Nevermind. I see what they're doing now.

iPhone 11 replaces iPhone XR and with $50 lower starting price.
iPhone 11 Pro replaces iPhone XS
iPhone 11 Pro Max replaces iPhone XS Max

I'm going to trade in my XS Max and get the 11 Pro... (non Max). I don't need that massive phone, the screen is nice and all but since the phones are identical except for the screen size I'm going to downsize I think. Still shocked they are doing 64GBs.... Going to have to get the 256GB one for sure again.

The biggest news is the $4.99 for arcade and $4.99 for TV (and the year free for purchases)

The phone shouldn't be called Pro...maybe if they had gone usb-c and pencil compatible.

That said, the camera upgrades always make it worth it for me. BUUUUT I want to know if this new upgrade program is compatible with the current upgrade program. Because I want that cheaper monthly payment.

Will probably end up trading in my XR for 11 Pro.

Although, my wife will need the 256GB

but I did notice Apple offers a payment plan for a regular purchase with trade in.

Go build the phone and say you have NO trade in...then you'll see all your regular upgrade plans, etc.

Maybe Ill sell the XS Max and Series 4 watch. Someone offered me $200 for the watch. XS Max is 256GB and brand new basically, Apple replaced it out a month ago without using an Apple+ incident. Maybe $1000 for both. Not sure.
