No N71 5G. That's the rural backbone of TMobile network.

EDIT: Looks like Best Buy has missing information. I'd trust GSMArena over Best Buy. Actual list of 5G Bands. T-Mobile should have 100% compatibility.

5G bands 2, 5, 25, 41, 66, 71, 77, 78 SA/NSA/Sub6

Has a decent Snapdragon chipset, 8gb ram and 256gb storage. Has been updated to Android 12 already and will receive one more major update to 13.

This phone runs fine but the camera is super terrible and the body is outdated . I just returned the $399 one bought from Amazon.

Would you have kept it at $250?

Very good phone at this price. Picked up for my daughter as she's going off to college and this has every band.

So what does "Activate Later" mean? Is it like buying an unlocked phone that I can use on any service provider? It does work on AT&T

How does this compare to Oneplus Nord N20 now that both of them are $299?

yes, you can just swap in your current sim from current phone.

That article takes the "stupidest article of the year" prize. Their so called "solutions" are along the lines of "restart the phone" and "don't hold it that way (c)".

darn just bought a used Stylus 5G (2021). I don't really need a stylus feature, but I guess the screen is worse on this one?

This Motorola looks better as far as chipset, battery, and number of bands.

It comes with 256GB of storage if that helps. Personally, 128GB is good enough for my needs but it might not work for everyone.

Quote from impasse :
hm open box for $244..seems like 90% of a oneplus 8t+5g, at a comparable price
One+ 8T smokes this phone. What are you talking about?

This is a mid-range phone.
- Snapdragon 768G (Antutu benchmark: 514, 554)
- Mono speaker
- TurboPower 30W charger
- IP52 (Protected from limited dust ingress. Protected from water spray less than 15 degrees from vertical.)
- Motorola has committed to two major system updates for this phone in addition to three years of security updates, applied monthly or quarterly depending on various factors. (via Android Authority)

OnePlus
- Snapdragon 865 (Antutu benchmark 628,855)
- Stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos
- Warp Charge 65w Power Adapter
- IP68, Not official though, but has been tested by many. Believed that they did not pay for rating to cut cost to consumer. (Protected from total dust ingress. Protected from long term immersion up to a specified pressure.)
- The OnePlus 8 series and newer devices will receive 3 major Android updates and 4 years of security updates. (via OnePlus)
- OnePlus 8T is $350 for Tmobile version (12GB RAM / 256GB Storage)at OnePlus.

Theres more to compare...
