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

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.

Good deal if you are already on T-mobile but doesn't work with other networks. The EDGE comes unlocked

Thinking of a phone for my dad, who's not a phone-savy. Is this a good option for the price?
Perfect for non savvy and non gamers and I'm sure people will say the camera sucks but I don't think ANY smartphones camera is Terrible nowadays

It's locked to T-Mobile, though. The unlocked version at $400 is not in stock; I would happily get it over Edge if it is

I have never bought open-box from best buy. Is it worth or should I pay $60 more and go for the new one?

With a little bit of techy work (following some directions at XDA) you can convert the 8T from T-Mobile to Unlocked and keep Updates and everything working as normal. For whoever doesnt mind doing so that is.

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
It means that whoever you activate it later, the phone will be locked to it. It's not a fully unlocked phone.
