Samsung Galaxy S23 FE from Metro By T-Mobile is $99 plus $40 one month service with 180 days unlocking policy.
it is very limited in the stock now, if you see the "Add to cart" greyed out, it means it is temporally out out of stock, but it is not dead yet, when you refresh the screen or check after midnight, it may be available to order, I just ordered at 2:01AM CST, even it shows all day greyed out the "Add to cart" button.
It is not dead or expired , you need be patient for hot deal. many people may never able to order from Metro for the ID verification issue.

it is 8gb ram with 128gb storage version.
it is new released phone on October 26,2023. it shares most character and hardware with its big brother Samsung Galaxy S23 Untra

yea people dont realize the FE series is a powerful phone, way better than the A5x series samsung phones. An dthe trade in value for the FE phone stays strong even 2-3 years later.
for $140 HELL OF A DEAL
you don't need 180 days service, only pay it for the order, 180 days later after activation, you will be able to get unlocked...
I actually like all the moto phones I've had, but the updates or lack thereof keeps me away

My S23FE is due to unlock around May 4th, is it automatically going to do it or do I need to do something to unlock it?

Go into settings, then connections. There will be a place where you can request a permanent unlock.

FYI the s23 FE is now $50 when you bring your own number

So $50 + 40 + cost of a number to port, less than $100 for this phone

edit: nm, its oos online, still

is there a way to check when it will unlock? mine is supposed to happen around May 5th. do I need to keep the phone on prior to that or it will happen whenever phone is turned on (after the 6 mos.)?

After 180 days just go under your settings and request an unlock. Try the next couple days if it doesn't go through.

Today is day 181 since the phone was activated on 11/2. Still get an error when trying to unlock, tried clearing cache of the unlock app, rebooting, factory resetting, and inserting different sim. I wonder if it will ever unlock. I guess it's always a risk doing these Metro deals.

Edit: Unlocked on day 182. Didn't work in the morning but a few hours later I tried again and it worked.

Strange. Have you contacted customer service?

No. I suppose I can try but they'll probably just give me a generic response about not having 6 months of paid service.

The terms say you may need to wait 2 business days.

180 days today for me. Doesnt unlock for me today so crossing my fingers the 2 business days works automatically.

Generic response of not having 6mo of service is my worst nightmare in this case. I only had that 1 month.
