Was able to get this for $150 from free line added on t-mobile.

Highly recommend getting this case and tempered glass combo.
Tempered glass is smaller than screen and shows a rainbow effect on the edges of glass but it think it looks cool like that and the case is able to cover the screen.

The case on the other hand is sorta like a full case cover that requires the 7t to be snapped inside. Looks really great and definitely feels protected with the tempered glass on top but is a fingerprint magnet.

Link to XDA thread discussing unlocking carrier lock, unlocking boot loader, loading global firmware, and getting root:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/...o-t4019495

Just another note if you or anyone else on here plans to use this on Verizon after unlocking, it may take a few calls to support to get everything working. I had to get on an escalated support call (their tier 1 techs were basically worthless for this) and Verizon had to add the phone's IMEI into their system.​ I found telling them I had a OnePlus 7T I purchased unlocked from the OnePlus website worked best as the t1 techs are basically trained to turn you away if you mention you're trying to add a t mobile phone. Don't be surprised if it takes a couple calls to get a decent tech or get through to escalation, they're basically a call center reading off a script and push to not escalate calls if possible. Once the phone is added, it takes 24-48 hours before it will show up as the phone correctly in their system.

After this, I had to call up support once more and ask them to add feature #83856 to my line (this is a CDMA-Less feature number, sms and mms messages wouldn't work via text until this was added). A t1 tech can do this fine as long as you give them the exact feature # listed above.

I did all this while it was still running on the t-mobile firmware once the phone was carrier unlocked. After it was working, I flashed the global firmware and re-locked the bootloader.

It's a process, but has been worth it in the long run. The phone is super fast and swapping to a modded google cam app has fixed the only area it was lacking in compared to my old pixel 3xl that broke and prompted this whole switch of mine.

I have this phone, works like a champ. I purchased, got unlocked via t-mobile (if it won't unlock immediately in the settings menu and t-mobile gives you a hard time about needing the 40 days on service, there is a thread on the xda forums of someone who can unlock it after it has been on the t-mobile network for a few days with pretty high success rate).

Along with carrier unlocking, you can unlock the boot loader and swap over to the global firmware, removing all t-mobile bloat and making it identical software wise to the unlocked version. I've been running mine on global firmware now for many months, receiving OTA updates without issue. I re locked the boot loader after and everything works properly including google pay and such.
What's a good American phone??
I m sure you have typed this comment on a Chinese keyboard and it routed through a Chinese router

Great deal at only $50 more than a Pixel 4A with better specs except for the camera.
