Seems like a solid deal, but where is the $407.63 retail price coming from? It looks to me like this is regularly $199.99.

RRP on the Moto G 5G is $399 so the number is correct. However as you say, it normally goes for much less, and is $199 on the Moto website and elsewhere at the moment.

$199 for the phone
$125 for the 1500/1500/1.5G
~ $83 for the case and the stand and the car charger

You are getting the phone at about 1/2 price and getting the year of service for $0 with some minutes and texts and data thrown in

$199 for just the phone

this includes the 1 year of service with 1500/1500/1.5GB which is normally $125

It's for the whole year, starting from the day of activation.

If you are new to Tracfone be sure to sign up for the Tracfone rewards! You get a valid referral code to sign up for a nice bonus. This can be used to buy air time, get phone discounts or add extra data/ texts/ minutes, etc.

Activate the phone first, then sign up for rewards. Remember to enter a Promo Code (ask for it) within 14 days after signing up for rewards.

The 12 months can easily be extended to 18-21 months if you get referred and redeem the points for service plans. Also, you can earn points on the rewards website by answering polls, social media posts. I just click the FB logo, and don't post but still get the points.

60 days. tfwunlockpolicy.com

Minor nitpick w the title, this display is 720p, which is only HD, FHD is 1080p+.

60 days after activation you can unlock it.

I like this phone, but I'm holding out for a Samsung A53

So any Verizon based MVNO unlocks after 60 days. (The reason this occurs is Verizon bought 700 MHz C block of radio frequencies in 2007 and the FCC at the time put rules on it that were customer focused and this was the net result.)

It is a little different between Android and iPhones but the experience is painless. I did this in April 2022 from a Feb 2022 similar deal.

=====

Now let's look at phone band frequencies this phone can do.
  • 4G bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 18, 19, 20, 26, 28, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43
  • 5G bands 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 28, 38, 41, 77, 78 SA/NSA
  • Speed HSPA, LTE-A, 5G
And per the T-Mobile website they use these frequency bands so you will want to match the list below to the list above.
Extended Range (XR) 5G:
  • Band n71 (600 MHz)
Ultra Capacity (UC) 5G
  • Band n41 (2.5 GHz)
  • Band n258 (24 GHz)
  • Band n260 (39 GHz)
  • Band n261 (28 GHz)
  • Important tech stuff, band n41 is useful but band n258, n260, and n261 are not. This is because 25, 28, 39 ghz are unable to penetrate buildings, have a real short range, and even things like a tree with just leaves can block this line of sight.
  • yet frequency band that are 2.5 ghz well that is useful and will have similar building penetration such as indoor wifi. Yet the 600/700/1700/1900/2100 mhz are even better at penetrating buildings and indoor walls. Stuff in the 600 to 800 mhz range is the best at penetrating walls.
Extended Range 4G LTE
  • Band 12 (700 MHz)
  • Band 71 (600 MHz)
4G LTE
  • Band 2 (1900 MHz)
  • Band 5 (850 MHz)
  • Band 4 (1700/2100 MHz)
  • Band 66 (Extension of band 4 on 1700/2100 MHz).
So while this phone is 5g capable it does not have the phone band radio frequencies that T-Mobile uses for 5g, it will be a 4g phone only on T-Mobile. You want band n71 even if n41 provides some 5g.
