Metro PCS Black Friday Prediction & Wish Thread

Metro PCS puts very competitive sales on their phones during Holidays.

They usually put good discount on MID-LOW tier phone and Buy 1 Get 1 deal.

For example, last year they cut LG F60 $159 to $49 and Samsung Galaxy Light $149 to $29 then offered B1G1 Free deal.


So for this year what do you want to see on their deals? And what's your prediction.


For me, if LG G Stylo gets another $50 discount making $99 final price... I am definitely making a move. It's $149 after MIR now.

Galaxy S7 is rumored to be released as early as January, so we may see Galaxy S6 at $400 range (I wish..). Although high end phone doesn't get big discount so I don't know.

Phone under $50 (Lumia640, LG F60, LG Leon, Galaxy Core Prime, Hydro Wave) may get B1G1 ;);)

I'm sick of MID LOW ON REGULAR PHONES, even if free.

I'd like SOMETHING USEFUL:

Non-Samsung flagships.

I WILL ACCEPT MID LOW, even LOW for:
Dual-SIM LTE phone
Smartwatch(but not one exclusive to one model or brand)
Tablet 11+"
Phablet 6+"
Hotspot/router
Extended battery
Wireless charging system

Deals on:
100+gb sd cards
OTG self-powered
Dual-port, small form factor flash drives

Metro doesn't need to kill itself with loss leaders, just provide "extras n nifties"...

I would really want to see them discount the LG stylo...at my local best buy they had one out and turned on or display and WOW ...that phone s faster than my LG g2 ..even though the LG g2 has the faster processor..the camera on the stylo def takes better pics and the screen seems much brighter and ppl are saying the battery is better than the g2 which is HARD to beat.

I've been trying to shop for a used one and they just sell quickly.

I have no complaints with my stylo good screen, camera is decent if you have patience and a steady hand. Best part of this phone is the battery life I get anywhere between 5-7:30 hours of screen on time, and I'm a pretty heavy user. I really hope they have the phone on sale on black Friday for you to buy and enjoy it.

To be honest I want the LG g stylo BUT you can find a HTC m8 on eBay for 150 -200 dollars now...SO I could buy a stylo or just save up a little more and buy a m8...its a hard choice because I heard the battery life on the m8 is hit or miss.
I'd risk it / willingly carry extra Power pack.
If it's one with nfc enabled you're only giving up WiFi calling and screen size but the resolution is so superior...as well the USB( No host on stylo)...+ radio to boot.
And if it's the 32gb version yippie kayay.

I've been checking with my friend (authorized dealer) and MPCS website.. but it seems like no major discount on phone yet.

If BOGO is the only promotion (which requires new line activation...) they are going to held during this time, I will be very disappointed -_-;;;

Cyber Monday is tomorrow I wonder what sales metro will have if any. I guess we'll find out soon. I know some people who are looking forward to it. I hope they don't disappoint.
Anthony.

This got a be the worst BF / CM promotion from Metro PCS. If there WAS any actual promotion went on...

Yeah.. I know their phones are cheaper than other carriers on daily basis but.. I was expecting much better anticipation from Metro PCS. The only deal they posted / advertised were BOGO on low-end phone which required new line activated.
