I am in a bit of a predicament. I really want to be able to upgrade my phone every year and was planning to go with ATT Next to do so. However, Next is only available on ATT.com or an ATT store and I have heard a great deal of horror stories trying to get a phone on release day, my both top requirement, from ATT.
What are my options? I have heard that you can break your contract and pay a penalty. I have also heard that is hit or miss and I do not really want to do that. Is it possible to buy a phone outright for full retail and keep getting a subsidized phone every other year? For example, could I pay $200 for the 5S and then buy the iPhone 6 for full retail, and then get the 6S for $200 again?
