before anyone ask....
to have phone unlock in 180 days (6 months)
You need to have activated the phone 180 days ago.
You do not. repeat do NOT have to pay for service for 180 days.
the above has been true for most every metro deal in the past.
both apple and android
it is extremely likely true for this deal as well.
most get the forced 1 month service.
then simply place phone in a drawer [or use as wi fi device].
wait 6 months.
the sim can be left in phone or stored safely.
it does not matter, as long as u
DO NOT THROW AWAY THE SIM
until u get a confirmed unlock
phone should/will unlock.
maybe 180 days + / - 6 days.
save original sim.
best chance of success as follows:
during the ~6 month wait.
u can use as wifi device.
keep sim in.
does not matter.
do not throw away sim, just in case.
when getting near the 180 day , make sure sim is inside phone.
and phone connected to wi fi.
depending on model.
try to unlock the device, once 1-2 days from day 180 onwards.
- None of us knows when Metro is going to close this unofficial loophole, and there have been some Metro phones that just won't unlock.
-However this has been in effect with Metro phone deals for last ~4-5 years
Exercise your own judgement,

Stylus
1080p screen
Works with T-Mobile right out of the box
Cons
The cpu is weaker than previous generation stylus or even the same model year Stylus 4G model.
I have a bunch of Sony, Samsung,LG 4k demo videos. This 5g stylus is the only one of the 3 Stylus who struggles to play those videos
-you can get port in #s from eBay or search slickdeals for the .99 Boost mobile SIM (it runs off the AT&T network so it would be eligible to port to Metro)
-you can just cancel after the 1st month by not paying for another month and making sure you dont singup for any autopay w/ Metro

The really good ones are usually in-store only though and limits it to every 180 days per customer.

If I cancel after a month, will Metro still give me unlock code?
