Where to buy a new phone?

It’s time for me to get a new iPhone and give my iPhone 8+ to Werner. We have his iPhone 6 and an iPod 4 to turn in.
It is so confusing to me just to find the best deal for an iPhone 11. We have AT&T. It’s like buying a used car! We don’t know whether to go to an AT&T store or the Apple store or someplace else.

I’m not sure what the Apple store’s in-person status is at the moment due to Covid. Ordering online is always an option of course. ATT would assist in activating the new phone or swapping the SIM card which would activate the new phone as well. The issue is that stores, other than Apple will often not give the clearest advice on how to move data from one phone to the next. The best way to accomplish data migration is to ensure your device is first backed up to iCloud then log into the new Device with the same iCloud account then restore from the cloud backup.

This can easily be done in your home so where one purchases the phone would become less important. Apple also has decent phone support to help the migration as well.at 1-800-MY-APPLE.
