Surprised this offer is still available in April 2023, but it is. It's a better deal than the Metro version, unless you really need 6GB RAM. Boost handset comes with 4GB RAM (both have same model # XT2215-4).
Deal is not $10 as thread title suggests. Phone will cost about $53 unlocked, potentially $27 after cashback. Breaks down this way:
$10 (the handset) + $40 (a month of service) + $1 (taxes) + $2 (unlock code from eBay) = $53, then one cashback site offers $26.25 though that should be considered a bonus. [taxes may be different, these numbers are based on FL]
Not allowed to post the eBay listing (I think their rating is too low) but look for one that's $1.75+tax. Does not mention the 2022 version of this phone but many reports it works (including for me).
Unlock is performed in the traditional method of putting a non-Boost SIM in the phone, then entering unlock code when prompted.
Can't post the cashback site but it's easy to find and they sometimes have referral bonuses, so if you're not a member check if you have a friend or relative who's on them.
Boost defaults to autopay=on, you'll need to do live chat right after activating (i.e. well before renewal) to have them disable (no self-service option). You can use the Boost service for the month if you want.
That's it, though the Metro version (6GB) is now $20 online (new #) and only $0 if you go to a store and port in.
New customers only and you have to purchase the 40 or 60 dollar plan. Not clear if they let you switch plans. The unlimited plan is $25 if you bring your own phone.

Easy to switch by calling to confirm. I got the Samsung A23 (I like it better than the Moto's) and first month's plan was $40. and then I moved to their 3 month for $45. plan. It's been a good service and I wanted their add on Mexico plan for $5. I'm on At&t and their network in Mx is strong and the popular destinations like PV have 5G.

Since it's marked as new customers only I figured they wouldn't let you switch to it after also giving you a subsidized phone.

AT&T has it listed as 4GB RAM also. Not good. I would definitely consider if it's 6GB.

It's for 2021 Version, not for 2022 of this SD OG.
