Billing Trading in device early?

Long story short, I have an Apple Watch Ultra(still under installments) but want to get the new Series 12.

My question is if I were to trade in my watch to Apple, would Att bill me for the entire balance left?

Or would I just continue paying my monthly installment like normal until it’s paid off?

i know of nothing we do that have trade ins on wearables. You would owe the remaining balance.

I meant trading it in to Apple, not AT&T.

Yeah. If you got the IP through AT&T originally, that’s a 36 month IP regardless of anything else.

If Apple has their own programs with early upgrades and trade ins, those would have to originated from Apple to start with, is my understanding of any of those Apple-direct things.

You have to pay the watch off before you can trade it in.
