AT&T Next Up Anytime Allows for Up to Three Device Upgrades Per Year

AT&T Next Up Anytime has been announced by the telecom brand as a new add-on feature for subscribers to help them keep the latest and greatest device in their ownership.


The add-on is priced at $10 per month and will allow customers to trade in their device and upgrade for a new one once they've paid off 33% of it. Subscribers can upgrade as soon as they make just one installment payment and can perform up to three upgrades per year. This will come as welcome news to consumers who are eager to always have the latest device or who might not be satisfied with the performance of a smartphone upon using it.

AT&T Next Up Anytime will be available starting July 16, 2024.
