Wow great deal. You could use the S20 as a stepping stone to the S21 by trading it in next year. You may even get more than $400 trade in credit.

Btw I don't think the Samsung phones benefit from network switching that Google Fi has. In case anyone cares about that.

I believe these Samsung phones are made specially for the five Network therefore they will do the switching of which you speak

Is the voice quality on the network improved at all since the sprint / tmo merger? When I was on the service over the last few years (before switching to big red) - towers here were mostly grabbing sprint towers and the call quality was awful - I didn't realize how bad it was until I switched to verizon... and I think it's mostly due to volte, which was weak (or non-existent?) on sprint (here anyways), and tmo in my area (rural) is also very scattered. Didn't know if after the merger that all the towers are supporting volte or if that's a hardware on tower upgrade waiting game.

I cannot verify, but someone said they are taxing on the sale amount after the discount. Which makes this deal that much better IF true. Do you know your local tax rate? (you should) An average 6% tax rate on a $400 phone is $24. So another $100 give or take on 4 phones.

Thanks for the info. I should have been more specific. I'm wondering about the tax's/fees on a monthly bill for 4 phones.

To me that not a good deal.
I got an offer only 100 for my 1 year old pixel.
Samsung offers way better deal than that.

Does this come unlocked and can be used for an upcoming international trip? Any restrictions?

Also, what is the best way to port in a new number that I don't have?

Do you have to be an existing customer? There is conflicting information in the details of this deal.

Yes, all of the Fi phones are unlocked, though you have to be active on Fi for 90 days.

Fi also offers free roaming, but not free roaming data

What do you mean active 90 days? It will be locked until after 90 days for it to be unlocked?

No they are unlocked from day1, and you get the $600 discount initially, but one of the conditions is that the phone needs to be active on Fi for 90 days, else they will charge you for the $600.

Some people have suggested that after activation of Fi, you can take the Fi sim out and use the phone with other sim, but Do not put the FI sim on another phone as that will invalidate the offer. and of course keep the plan active for 90 days.

You can also get 20 off of your second bill. You can pm me for more details

You dont necessarily need to be an existing customer, just that the deal is available to both new and existing customers with different condition.

The terms are here

The taxes and fees for Fi are very high, it is charging me ~$7 for the 1 line i have with the $20 plan, on the other hand Xfinity Mobile charges me ~$3 for the same address

I'm tempted, but Google Fi is incredibly overpriced.

This year, you mean? It's 2021 already. For buying an S21, Samsung is offering $700 trade-in credit for trading in an S20.

So what? Don't use Fi & cancel Fi service after 90 days. Use Google Voice numbers to port in.
