Walmart B&M Stores right now have the Boost Mobile Moto E5 Play for $59. Includes Sprint SIM card pre-installed and may work on the Sprint Network if the Walmart store will sell it to you without activating in store...others are saying it will work on Sprint BYOD deal even if the Walmart employee activated the Boost phone in the store. Walmart stores also have the Boost Mobile Moto G6 Play (bigger screen, finger print scanner, huge battery, etc) for $79 or less.

Here's the details on the Sprint BYOD Free 1YR deal:

There are a bunch of posts saying the Boost Mobile G6 Play is faulty. The ONLY difference is the camera. ....
Huh?... See for yourself.
https://www.gsmarena.com/compare....hone2=9002

G6 Play has bigger screen, more pixels, 13MP camera (vs 8MP in E5 PLay), Gorilla glass, more Bluetooth modes, etc.

So to me $20 Walmart price difference between E5 Play and G6 Play is nothing.

Anyways -- congrats on saving $20 and getting "the same" phone. Not!.

On the Sprint BYOD free plan, does anyone have experience with the Boost E5 play domestic or international roaming? The specs say the device should have bands that support T-Mobile, AT&T and international carriers, but I am wondering if the Boost version has locked out support for those bands.

Has anyone rooted their G6 Play? I want to install Titanium Backup and uninstall some of the bloat, but it requires root. What are the downsides of rooting?

I saw this phone at bestbuy, not on sale or clearance but still at $49.99. So if walmart is out of them check bestbuy.

Walmart already raised the G6 price from $79 promo to $129 for both stores. there are a few stores which havent changed prices but they are in the minority. Boost.com however has dropped the pricing to a $99 promo for a short time- https://www.boostmobile.com/phone...-play.html

Boost was selling it for $99 for long time, but for time there was 20% Coupon also, making it $80 + taxes from Boost directly, look at https://slickdeals.net/f/11860231-boost-mobile-coupon-for-extra-savings-on-select-android-phones-20-off-free-shipping

So, is there any trick to activating a G6 purchased directly from Boost onto the Sprint 1 year free plan?

Looks like the boost E5 can be bootloader unlocked [xda-developers.com], if anyone is interested in rooting/custom roms etc
Do you know if anyone has done it with the G6?

Oh well. I didn't realize I'd have to wipe the phone just to root it. I already have too much time getting it set up they way I want it to have to wipe it. All I want to do is be able to delete some of the apps that it won't let me delete.

Can Boost E5 Play be unlocked to use on a GSM network in future?

I placed another order on boost website and they cancelled the order too. Could it be the proximity of the store location from my residence? Or because i am using a business CC? Any thoughts or suggestions from the experts?
