    Anyone know if 3 trade in partner actually takes damaged phones? I've a Pixel 6 with a dead screen and it's offering €8.80 trade in for it when I pick poor condition and untick the "your device doesn't power on, has screen burn or liquid damage" box.

    If I could get the €200 top up bonus on that I'd be very tempted to upgrade to the 9 Pro from an 8.

    The Google Store have upped their trade in value from 419 to 519 for the 8 Pro (256GB), so you'd pay 700 quid for the device after the refund. I just checked the 9 Pro XL 256 on the Three site and it's 1,049.99
    with a trade in of 496.60 on a 8 Pro (256GB) so they are under cutting the Google Store by nearly 150 quid. That's not bad, I probably would have pulled the trigger if they were offering decent pre-order bundles like they used to (apart from the 2022 disaster of course).

    T&C say it must be working.

    At the very minimum the Device being traded in must:

    It must power on/up and hold a charge.

    It must be fully functional and must have no software or hardware faults.

    First proper technical review I've found. Charging speeds over 15-30 min have improved a nice bit and battery life seems to have improved over the 8. They were using a Samsung 45w charger, google official one may do slightly better. Build quality has improved and fingerprint scanner is way faster.

    Yea I saw that in the T&C's but the trade in offer stays at the €8 price even after unticking the box so just wanted to check.

    Will probably hold off until the 10 either way.

    Received my PAYG Pixel 9 from Three yesterday.

    Working fine with my other (e)SIMs on 48 and Vodafone.

    Are 3 offering a 200 bonus on trade in for a pixel pro 9? I've a pro 7 and they offer 190 for it.. I can't chose the I've recently bought a new phone as need IMEI and proof of purchase of the new phone.. do you also get a year ofnl Gemini from 3? I assume if you purchase a pre pay you just chose don't keep my number and dont bother activating the SIM?

    Anyone know much do Three give for a trade in for the Pixel 7 128GB compared to the Google store? Three won't let me check as it requires proof I had already purchased a Pixel 9. By saying I didn't they only offer €136. Google store trade in offers €297 for it. Obviously the Pixel 9 price is only €789 on Three v €919 on Google store though.

    Also, if buying on Three and just want the phone unlocked do you still have to select a PAYG plan/SIM and pay for it?
