All Samsung s8, s8+ and note8 devices sold in USA have the same hardware. This means that they do have all the correct bands, modem, etc. as far as the hardware goes. Getting the right bands, etc. enabled is simply a matter of getting the right software (firmware really) installed. It is pretty simple to switch from one firmware to another. Look on XDA for info, there are several guides that will walk you through it step by step.
This means that you can get an XM samsung phone and then put the right firmware on it and have it be fully compatible with ATT/Tmobile/etc. Of course the phone has to be unlocked by XM, simply putting the Tmobile firmware on it won't work if the device is still locked to XM.
Personally I got an s8. I'll wait for the giftcard, then unlock it and switch it to my carrier.
I believe everything I said about the 8 devices is also true for the s7 but I'm not actually going to look into that as I'm not interested in getting an s7.
Then pay off phone anytime to get unlock code, then after getting the rebate cards, cancel the service?
At first he was insisting that you can't get both gift cards and I asked him to check and he came back and said yes you can get both. It was his first time doing an Xfinity Mobile order.
Got the Note 8 coming! Thank you to the OP!!

The guy in the XM Mobile dept said I only qualified for the $500 GC if I were a brand new internet customer (I am not, I have internet and TV for a couple years now).
I called back, got a different Retentions rep, she said Retentions can not set up mobile, it has to be done through mobile department. Transferred me, different mobile guy said it's only for new internet customers.
I'm in MD, and calling the number in OP.
Final edit: Third time was the charm, guy in Retentions said "yeah we do have that deal, and I wish I knew about it when I signed up!" He attached the $500 to my account, and then transferred me to the Mobile dept, who verified that the $500 was showing up in my account and they completed the order.
