A:AnswerThe simple answer to the question is if you already have the X then it is not worth getting the XS unless you just want to have the latest technology. However if you want a bigger screen then it is a worthwhile upgrade to get the XS Max.
Main differences in the X compared to XS
-Faster processor
-Better camera
-Louder speakers
-Slightly faster Face ID
-30 minutes more battery life
-Available in Gold
If you are coming from any phone other than the X, then it is definitely worth getting the XS, or the XS Max if you want the biggest screen. If you already have the X and don't wan't a bigger screen I would save your money and get an Apple Watch Series 4 instead.
A:AnswerNo, the phone in this listing is not unlocked. It can be used with Verizon or AT&T. In order to get a completely unlocked iPhone you can use with any carrier, you need to purchase it directly from Apple.
A:AnswerThe screen size as the XR will be bigger than the XS unless you go with the max. There's also the 3D Touch for all the shortcuts into apps and previewing notifications on the home screen, although the XR has a haptic tough that is similar but not as fully integrated. The camera doesn't have the 2nd lens which is mostly useful for the 2x optical zoom. The screen on the XS is OLED where the XR is LED, although the LED on the XR is great its still not the quality of OLED you'll get on the XS. A plus for the XR is it gets the best battery life out of XS and XS max probably due to it running LED and not OLED screen. So if battery life is most important to you I'd go with the XR, I chose the XS max because I wanted all the top of line features and size.
A:AnswerThat is correct. You pay the taxes on the price of the phone you’re getting at the time of purchas /upgrade. Depending on your carrier or promo going on, you can expect to pay anywhere from 32-51$ a month depending on the configuration of the phone you select. Typically your first bill will also have an upgrade fee, again, depending on the carrier you have.
You can also purchase the device outright and not pay an increased Monthly bill
Hope this helps.
A:AnswerHey there,
To qualify for the Best Buy gift card you would have to have your phone completely paid off ( owned ). The $32 you mentioned is considered an early upgrade. Since you're only 20 payments in out of 30, consider it like a lease.. AT&T requires that phone to be returned to them since it wasn't paid in full.
Hope that helps .

A:AnswerYou can pay it off at any time. The Best Buy discount is written as a down payment. But if sprint is giving you additional credits then you would lose those.
A:AnswerNo, the phone is not unlocked if it is marked as "Verizon carrier" or any other carrier. If you are looking for an unlocked version of the iPhone, you can purchase at an Apple store or on the Apple website. Be sure to choose the model which is not associated with any carrier.
