linky for last essential deal ...was brand new $145 from sprint..have a look



list below, summary of the the condition of your phone (and what steps u took and the seller took) :
  • Jax: Phone 1 was in mint condition
  • Jax: Phone 2 had a damaged speaker mesh grill. Seller refunded $30 after I asked for $50.
  • Jax: Phone 3 has physical damage from a drop. Not yet contacted seller but will hope/expect $30 refund.

Frenzytom: Phone is a 9.5/10 condition with mint front and back. The corner has a very tiny minor nick (almost missed it since it was the same color as titanium color). Speaker, Battery, Wifi, T-Mobile signal has been good.

I am excited, ordered, was hunting for this for a while Smilie

if combined with FREE Sprint 1 year plan this is no brainer, likely with 60 day active on plan Sprint will unlock it for you

Free 1 year Sprint UNLIMITED plan link:
https://www.sprint.com/en/shop/of...ited:Exact

the steps to possibly get you started with free service ($500+ savings):

1 get FreedomPOP SIM for $1 and any GSM cheap phone to have it activated

https://www.googleadservices.com/...CDY&adurl=

2 port to Sprint with this Essential phone
link above

3 enjoy unlimited plan

if you have crappy service or bad experience with Sprint , oh well...
please keep in mind it is about saving money not about your whinning, by all means go to ATT, Verizon, tmobile pay for the service asking price such as $25~$50 a month and do not crap on this thread, THANK YOU

Why is this getting TD'd? This is cheaper than used ones on craigslist or anywhere else i can find by a huge margin, and there's several ways to unlock them

I mean used is even in the title
