T-Mobile starts LG V20 pre-orders, reveals $769.99 full retail price
Earlier this month, T-Mobile revealed its release date for the LG V20 - October 28. However, that announcement was not accompanied by any sort of pricing information for the upcoming phablet. That's been rectified today, as the magenta carrier has started taking pre-orders for LG's latest flagship.
The V20's full retail price at T-Mobile is $769.99, the same amount you'd pay for an entry-level iPhone 7 Plus or Google Pixel XL. That's also less than what AT&T is asking for the V20, namely $830.
To help that rather steep pricing go down easier, T-Mobile has a few perks for those who pre-order. First, if you trade in any 4G smartphone in good working order you'll get a credit of at least $200. Second, you get the Bang & Olufsen BeoPlay H3 headphones for free with your V20 order (a $149 value). And finally, you can also grab an LG G Pad 8.0 or G Pad F 8.0 tablet for free with a two-year finance agreement - that said, you'll probably need to add a mobile internet subscription for that tablet if you do want it.
The V20 can also be had using T-Mobile's installment plan, of course, in which case you need to shell out $49.99 upfront, followed by 24 monthly payments of $30. As usual with this carrier, if you cancel wireless service the remaining balance on the device becomes due.

IKR! At least with an iPhone you get fast, reliable, longer updates and is more lauded as a brand than LG will ever be, same goes for Samsung and Google. And so they should price their phones as such, $770-$830 is way too high for a relatively unpopu...

so if i trade in an old Z (4G capable, 50USD on ebay) its 770-200+50=620USD. Pretty good deal. 570USD if you have a "free" 4G phone to turn in.

This is the most complete phone. The pricing is more than reasonable for a note. You can also replace the battery. Samsung and Iphone get a 1k euro pricing and no one bats an eye. Lg has a 750 euro tag and everyone loses its mind. This is a flagship ...
