Be careful as Fi wants the number you ported to be on this phone to get the $600 discount. They check nightly and they find out the number is on other phone then they will charge the $600 on your CC after 4 months. I got the Pixel 6 when it was for 399 and used the Fi SIM on my Essential PH1 and got a notification that Promo guidelines not met and they would charge the discounted amount to my CC.

Many of us got this deal not to keep GFi but to get the phone cheap accounting for the 4mo usage and terminating after that. Getting an unlocked S22+ for less than $500 total with no trade-in. No complications.

Leave the GFi sim in and use your regular service via the eSim as the primary since it comes unlocked. The Google Fi app shows the countdown timer to 120 days and them you port your number back to Google voice.

No need to make it unnecessarily complicated.

Unless you live in a State without tax and fee you will NEVER get $20 a month

More realistic is somewhere between $23- $26 which end up to $92 - $104

Thank you. I feared this. Adding 80 bucks to this deal makes it a little less sweet

Ting was painful experience for me. First wouldn't accept my phone then it randomly did. Then it wouldn't accept my credit cards (yes that's plural) and was told I had to call in. I ended up not using it but good luck to the next person. It's possible it was due to putting different address for mailing vs billing but not sure. Also felt that once the problem happened you could no longer rectify it but that's just a hunch.

Millimeter wave 5G. Similar concept as 4G band compatibility.

Any SDers care to comment on experience with Google Fi? Considering moving 3 lines from T-Mobile and adding 1 ($80/month vs. $140/month).

Good deal but i had terrible experince on this phone. Google Services caused terrible battery drain even when apps were set to deep sleep. Never averaged more then 4 hours SoT (and maybe 3 while on 5g). Ppl l will say to turn off certain features and live with the compromise but then this phone is likely not doing anything you dont already have

So you got charged at the end, for switching the sim to a different phone

… so you didn't follow the rules, which everyone here has specifically stated over and over again to never to put the sim in a different phone.

I bought a number from Boost and ported thinking will switch the SIM's once I get the phone, I put the SIM back and the counter restarted for Discount. I am now waiting for 4 months to complete.
Attached pic of the counter.
