Not true. Just reach out to @tmobilehelp on Twitter via DM with the imei and they'll unlock it for you. I just did it last week. No special approach required. The unlock was successful in 8 hours.

A71 is a mid range phone with "5G competable" but i think note 9 should still be a better phone

Most of the connectivity issues you're referring to were resolved with updates a long time ago.

Isnt the verizon one at $30 more a better deal since it cones with a galaxy buds plus. That should be worth at least $30. Or is it because Tmobile is easily unlockable and vz is not? Thanks in advance
Verizon you need to upgrade or add a line and you get 40 dollar charges.

Where is the FREE Pixel 4A 5G w/trade-in deal like this A71 deal? Since you're comparing, I assume you are comparing an identical deal, too?
There was a solid deal but it was a google fi deal. Great value if you had an old iphone 6s to trade-in. You had to port and use google fi for at least 2 months. That costs at least an additional $50..... so $350 plus tax and then subtract trade-in.

Lots of people had issues with Hyla trade-in. I did Google Fi and Samsung trade-ins and had success but I won't ever do Google Fi trade-in again.

How do you turn off 5G? I keep going to mobile network and then network mode and there's no option to turn 5G off? Under network mode there are two options. Manula and Automatic. And neither option allow to switch off 5G.
Settings > Connections > Mobile Networks > Network Mode. On mine there are different auto connect options, such as 5G/LTE/3G/2G and LTE/3G/2G. I use the latter so that 5G is off.

It's on par with the 845. A little slower as far as GPU goes, but you won't notice it for most games.

My carrier is T-Mobile though and they actually have 5G coverage; if you are using a carrier that doesn't offer 5G, then I would think 5G is already off.

Get it unlocked at Target with Best Buy price match for $399 then get a $150 gift card. Add a trac phone sim and minutes after purchase and get another $75 gift card. You'll end up paying $399 but get $225 in Target gift cards. Unlocked, no trade in necessary just get a price match.

Target won't price match since it comes with a gift card. The maximum discount that they would give is $50. How did you get them to price match?

Not true. TMO will immediately unlock this once you provide IMEI and state you bought outright. Can easily be done via Twitter or fb messenger.
Quote from MM7807 :
Definitely
I have a 6splus phone which not only has a badly broken screen but the front frame is also broke. Does it qualify for this offer or is the qualification if the screen is broken and not the surrounding frame??

I am not using the phone - it is a paper weight.

So, if I "trade it in", is my net cost for the Galaxy A71 5G zero which I can then later sell?

Target won't price match with best buy since it comes with $200 gift card now. How did you get it done? Tried with multiple reps? I have already done so with 3 reps so far and all of them denied it.

Quote from dualityofman :
The pictures are a little better imo on the S10. Both phones have Qualcomm Snapdragon processors inside. The A71 is faster right now, but that's because my S10 has slowed down somewhat after only owning it for 5 months.
Weird, I bought my S10 in March 2019 and it still functions as fast as the day I bought it. I have unlimited data and use it both as a mobile hotspot and to download files via VPN and transfer to my PC. Also play Game Pass games from the cloud on it. Whenever I do an update, it tells me how many apps are being optimized, and I'm amazed that it can even handle 460 as well as it does.

I know at least some of you love your iPhones and came here to shit on Samsung. But the S10 is a tank.

765 is around 845. It has a weaker GPU, but the CPU is very similar. Weaker than 855 and 865.

I guess they don't take Android tablets in on trade? Was going to do the deal but only see where the trade mentions phones.

Added the A71 to my cart for a backup phone with the intent of trading in the $20 Tracfone Motorola e6 from last month. Price for the phone after all bonuses was $199. Is there an additional code that's not in OP to get it lower?
