Verizon iPhone 4 preorders are set to begin on Feb. 3, seven days before the coveted Apple smart phone hits store shelves at the carrier.
And the Big V is taking AT&T iPhone trade-ins, according to a report from MacRumors.
Verizon has announced the preorders in e-mails to its corporate mobile subscribers telling them about the preorder option, noting that the preorder sales will start at 3 a.m. EST.
Preorders will only be accepted through My Verizon accounts on Verizon’s site. Verizon is taking a limited number of preorders, the website said, though the carrier hasn’t said just how many.
MacRumors also reported that Verizon is offering trade-in credits for AT&T iPhones toward its version of the iPhone 4, offering from $60 to $360 in credit depending on the model. The credit amounts were listed as:
- iPhone 2G (original model) 16GB: $60
- iPhone 3G 16GB: $105
- iPhone 3Gs 32GB: $160
- iPhone 4 16GB: $280
- iPhone 4 32GB: $360
Pre-ordered Verizon iPhone 4s will ship to customers via two-day FedEx or, for an extra charge, next-day delivery.
