First, it's not $40 anymore. They repriced the phone at $70 + $40 for service = $110, and it would still be SIM locked for 180 days, assuming they unlock it at all.
But even for other phones that are still $0 on Metro's site, you basically can't check out at all because either the site is broken or they have disabled all sales. You just get an error message on checkout.
You might still be able to do it in-store, but the only phones left are pretty junky and it's not really worth it (for me).
Takes off an extra $25 to bring it down to $224.99 before tax. Also get free expedited (2 business day) shipping.

Has a SD835 in it, and I should be able to do Android 10 versus Android 9 I've been stuck on.
Any downsides?
If you buy phone powered with MediaTek CPU, you are funding the R&D cost for Chinese company to surpass the United States.

Does anyone know if this unlocked version will have an issue with Verizon. I just got a Samsung s22 plus slickdeal that was unlocked and it seems to be working fine on Verizon. Wifi calling works, 5g works. Always worried Verizon has issues with unlocked phones.
Another worry I have is the Moto Z3 I believe only had a single Android OS update. It went from 8 to 9, is that common with Moto? Only 1 OS upgrade?
Anyone recommend buying on Amazon vs Bestbuy for phones, I've never ordered a phone on Amazon.

i bought the moto One Action two years ago with the WRITTEN promise of 2 Android upgrades.
2 upgrades did happen for some countries but not the USA version of the phone because of some BS excuse.
It makes no sense. There's no difference between the hardware in the USA version vs the India version.
Mine came with Android 9 and stopped at 10.
i was hoping for 11 because then i wouldnt need to buy another phone for 4 years till Android 15.
my financial apps require an OS no older than 3 versions.
So 13 just came out which means in 2024, my Moto one action will be useless for my bank/brokerage apps because Android 14.
thats why For the $40 metro deal, i picked the Moto G Stylus 5G 2022 (Android 12, 128gig version) over the N20 (android 11) even tho the N20 has slightly better specs for my uses.
Then i found out the N20 advertised 3 upgrades to Android 14!
I still would have picked the G Stylus.
being burned by the One Action, i rather have bird in hand instead 2 in the bush (which maybe an empty promise).

But that isn't relevant here. This 2022 5g version of the moto g stylus uses a qualcomm processor. It is the non-5g 2022 moto g stylus which uses mediatek.
Also the 2021 moto g stylus 5g, 2021 moto g stylus non-5g, and 2020 moto g stylus all use qualcomm processors too.
A refurbished phone with SD 8xx will be much better.
