Deals like this typically run at the end of a products first year of production. You likely won't see a deal like this on a 13 until August of 2022.
Yeah most likely, although I have been following Verizon for the past 3 or 4 months and it seems like they have had a deal pretty close to this one the entire time.

Where is the $800 off select phones? Best I'm seeing is $440 for upgrade or $700 with a new line.

Anyone know if Verizon typically has deals on new iphones? Tempted to pick up a 12, but this deal would be nicer in 2 months with a 13.
