T-Mobile version, 8 GB RAM 128gb storage in Onyx Black or Interstaller Glow, excellent phone with Snapdragon 865, 5G, 90Hz refresh rate, big screen, etc. Very powerful processor and can be easily unlocked. Should show as $349 before codes, enter code NovoP8 for additional $50 off. This is the lowest I've ever seen this phone. Separately, OnePlus is also giving an extra $100 promotional trade-in value for older OnePlus phones through November (offering, eg, $200 for OnePlus 7T).
This beats the precious FP deal by $50.
Specs:
6.55" 2400 x 1080 resolution 90Hz refresh rate HDR10+ AMOLED display
Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 octa-core processor
8GB RAM
128GB UFS 3.0 internal storage
Rear Triple Camera System: 48 MP OIS (wide), 16 MP (ultrawide), 2 MP (macro)
Selfie Camera: 16MP (wide)
Dual speaker system (stereo)
Fingerprint sensor (under display, optical)
802.11ax WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.1 LE (aptX HD), NFC, GPS
USB 3.1 Type C port w/ 30W fast charging
4300 mAh Battery
Android 10 (upgradable to Android 11, OxygenOS 11) (confirmed to be receiving Android 12 when available)

Has that edge gimmick the older galaxys had, if you're into that. (curved screen) It looks nice but it's a pain using landscape mode when using it in a case (swiping for notifications)
If you can get the s20 for under 350 get that instead. if not get this
Edit: seems bad news to me, updates gotta go through tmo. There is an unlock procedure at XDA but I'm sure it's quite complex and not worth the hassle for me, YMMV. I would stick to unlocked (which is out of stock anyway, but $390 from Amazon).
I'm also kind of waiting to see what One Plus BF looks like. Many of their specials are on the underwhelming and overpriced 9 line, but if I'm reading right on Nov 26 all their phones go on sale. Hoping for a juicy sale on the 8t at that time (hoping for 400). 8t has advantages of 12/256 rather than 8/128, and a flat screen.

(People are reporting you don't even need to insert sim, phone is immediately unlockable through settings.)
But then what of software updates?

One area where Samsung has it beat is 12GB Ram versus 8GB but 8Gb Is plenty, and the MicroSD slot (which Samsung deleted on the S21). Wireless charging is more of a gimmick as IIRC the S20 doesn't support wireless fast charging.
