I keep running into this issue too.

How expensive is it to unlock Samsung devices if you don't want to wait for Boost Mobile to unlock it?

Usually pretty cheap, if you search "boost mobile unlock service" on eBay, it's like 7-10$ for unlocking S20, Note 20, and other expensive phones. The Z flip will probably cost around the same thing, once people start offering the service.

No luck with BB but i was lucky to get Samsung to PM it for me. Had preordered this phone and waiting for it to arrive.

I just got mine yesterday. I wonder if it isn't too late to ask Samsung for a PM

Edit: Samsung doesn't offer PM, how did get around that?

I am trying to figure it out how I could price match and trade in my S21 at the same time.

S21 Estimated Trade-In Value: $425.00 for online. + $175 for in store.

The cream color version has been on back order since at least a week ago. Samsung didn't expect to see such high pre-order volume.

Whichever source told you he got a cream one PM today and shipped already might not be very reliable

I just went on Best Buy's website and cream is available to be shipped. Best Buy inventory is regional. It could be out of stock for you and in stock for others. The guy provided a screenshot as well after being repeatedly hassled by the internet police for evidence.

So tempting to get even though my 7t is still going strong. Ugh.

great answer.

You are not locked in a contract meaning you can stop paying for the service anytime you want and just use it on wifi if you want; however the phone itself is locked to boost mobile service and will not work under any other service provider, only boost mobile. If you put another carriers SIM card inside the phone, it won't read it. They will only factory unlock the phone after 12 months of active service with them, then you can use any other carrier you want.

It won't work anymore... The pm... The initial ones were simply errors and should not have been done

I tried at least ten times and got shot down every time.

Anyone is aware of the snapdragon 888 overheating issue? Seemed to be Samsung manufacturing issue with 5LPE (5nm) and current fix is via software update to tune down speed of the chipset. But with $400 off if one can get from BB PM, I would still go for it.

Been trying to price match for like 4 hrs already and not a single one can approve it…. they r like you need 1 year to unlock or this is a contract phone.

Interesting, I had issues trying to find an unlock code for my Galaxy A32 5g on Metro PCS. I was seeing some codes for $30-40.
