We encourage you to check out the main Swappa Deals page for a complete list of all available deals, however, we are also going to be using our blog to highlight a few of the best deals each week. This deals post will be released here on the blog each Tuesday, and you can also check out our earlier post that offers a more in-depth explanation of Swappa Deals.
This post will serve as our “Best Mobile Deals for the Week” series, and the deals you find below are all hand-picked by Swappa staff.
Best Mobile Deals for the Week: October 27, 2020
Another round of weekly deals has arrived, and this time we seem to have gone a bit heavy on the Android side, which only seems fair given the past few weeks have been dominated by the iPhone. The recent focus on the iPhone was, naturally, due to the launch of the iPhone 12 lineup.
This week we have one iPhone deal, which coincidentally is for an iPhone 12. The remaining four deals are for Android phones, and they include the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G, Google Pixel 5, LG Fortune 3, and the Samsung Galaxy A10e. The iPhone 12 deal is from US Cellular, and the carriers for the Android deals include AT&T, Verizon, Cricket Wireless, and Straight Talk.
Of course, there is one thing that remains the same week after week — all of these deals have been hand-picked by Swappa staff with the intent to help you save some money.
Five money-saving deals
Get a Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G for free when you trade-in with AT&T
Up first this week is an offer to get a free (or nicely discounted) Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G from AT&T. This deal does require you to trade-in a phone, but it is available for those who are switching to AT&T, as well as current customers who are adding a line or upgrading.
AT&T normally has the Galaxy S20 FE 5G priced at $23.34 per month (for 30 months), and this offer brings the potential to get it for free. Your final price will depend on the phone you have for a trade-in, however, you can go back as far as the Samsung Galaxy S9 or the iPhone 8 to get the full $700 value towards the trade-in credit.
This deal expires December 31, 2020
Switch to US Cellular and get an iPhone 12 Pro for $5.66 per month
Next up is a simple and straightforward offer from US Cellular. All you need to do is switch to US Cellular and purchase an iPhone 12 Pro. US Cellular typically sells the iPhone 12 Pro for $33.30 per month for 30-months, and this offer means getting it for $5.66 per month, also for 30-months. The $5.66 monthly price is for the 128GB model and you can choose between the full variety of colors; Gold, Silver, Graphite, or Pacific Blue.
In addition, US Cellular has a discount available on the 256GB and 512GB models. These models are normally priced at $36.63 and $43.30 per month (for 30-months), respectively. This offer would drop the 256GB model to $8.99 per month and the 512GB model to $15.66 per month.

Save up to $550 on a Pixel 5 when you trade-in with Verizon
Moving on to deal number 3 and we find an offer to save up to $550 on a Google Pixel 5 with Verizon. Similar to the Galaxy S20 FE 5G offer from AT&T, this Pixel 5 deal will depend on a trade-in. But first, Verizon has the 128GB Pixel 5 available in Just Black or Sage.
The offer means saving “up to” $550, but the good news is that you can get a solid trade-in offer even with some older model phones. The Verizon website will show you the value for your specific trade-in, but a quick check shows the $550 value being applied to the original Google Pixel.
This deal expires October 31, 2020
Get a free LG Fortune 3 when you switch to Cricket Wireless
This next offer means getting an LG Fortune 3 for free. The Fortune 3 typically sells for $99.99, and this offer requires you to purchase the phone from Cricket Wireless and get it activated on their $60 per month Unlimited + 15GB Mobile Hotspot Plan which includes unlimited talk, text, and high-speed data. You also need to bring your current telephone number to Cricket Wireless to get the phone for free. Otherwise, the LG Fortune 3 features a 5.7-inch HD+ FullVision display, octa-core processor, 3000 mAh battery, 5MP front-facing camera, dual 13MP and 5MP camera setup on the back, and Android 10.
This deal expires November 19, 2020
Get a Samsung Galaxy A10e for $99.99 with Straight Talk
The final offer this week is another Samsung phone. This offer is from Straight Talk and means getting a Galaxy A10e for $99.99, which is a discount of $40. Straight Talk allows for a one-time payment in full or 24-monthly payments of $4.12 per month. The Galaxy A10e feature set includes a 5.83-inch Infinity display, 32GB of storage, a 5MP front-facing camera, an 8MP rear-facing camera, and Android 9.0 Pie. Otherwise, similar to the Cricket Wireless offer, you will need to purchase and activate the phone with Straight Talk to get the discounted price.
