Broken Iphone without Applecare
I broke my Iphone 14 Pro that I bought on an installment plan back in November of 2022. I do not have Applecare or any active insurance plan on the phone. I do however have a Iphone 8 that works fine under the same carrier that is not on any line. I know I have to pay off my current phone to be able to upgrade. Would I be able to trade in my Iphone 8 and use that trade in amount to pay off my Iphone 14 Pro and get a new phone?

If you’re talking about a straight trade in for cash, you won’t get much at all for an iPhone 8, especially from AT&T. You’d be a little better off just selling the iPhone 8 on your own, but you aren’t going to get enough to pay off an iPhone 14 that’s only half paid off. You may be able to go into a store and get a physical SIM with your number to put in the iPhone 8 so you can use that while you continue to pay off your 14.

@Ccriste42 The advice given by @dwill05 is solid. Just use your iPhone 8 until you've paid off the iPhone 14. Then, when you do get a new iPhone, AppleCare+ is by far the best "insurance" you can get. DON'T get whatever AT&T offers.
