phone retailers have gone headfastly into referring to storage as 'memory' and trying their best to hide the ram - but this is a new one.

Here are the phone bands, I think I am going to get it

Technical Model Number for this phone is Samsung SM-S236DL. There are other Samsung A23 5G models with different phone bands so the specific model number of s236DL is important to me.
This info from PhoneMore and I assume it is correct https://www.phonemore.com/specs/s...sm-s236dl/
Primary 5G network
  • SA/NSA/Sub6 (2, 5, 66, 71)
  • mmWave (41, 48, 77, 78)
Primary 4G network
  • LTE Cat15 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 12, 14, 20, 29, 30, 66, 71)
  • TD-LTE (38, 39, 40, 41, 48)
  • VoLTE
Primary 3G network UMTS 850/900/1700/1900/2100
Primary 2G network GSM 850/900/1800/1900
GSM MHz band Quad-Band 850/900/1800/1900
—————————-




T-Mobile uses these bands if one wants to transfer after the 2 months unlock
https://www.t-mobile.com/support/...le-network

5G
  • Band n71 (600 MHz)
  • Band n41 (2.5 GHz)
  • Band n258 (24 GHz)
  • Band n260 (39 GHz)
  • Band n261 (28 GHz)
4G XR
  • Band 12 (700 MHz)
  • Band 71 (600 MHz)
4G
  • Band 2 (1900 MHz)
  • Band 5 (850 MHz)
  • Band 4 (1700/2100 MHz)
  • Band 66 (Extension of band 4 on 1700/2100 MHz).

No band 258,260, or 261 but those are the 24 to 40 ghz frequencies that never work indoors and anything that blocks line of sight such as a piece of paper or the leaves of a tree disrupt frequencies in this range. Normal Wifi is 2.4 ghz and thus penetrates walls 10x better than 24 ghz (it is a little more complicated than this from a science perspective)

I think I am going to buy this in the next few hours Confusednod

I'd be interested in this if it had 6GB of ram instead of 4GB.

Yep and it was an originally Android 12 device and then a few months later they did Android 13 for it so hopefully Android 14 but no 15 or 16 (androids usually come out every year based off past decade of history)

I think I am going to push purchase for myself.

Motorola does not give you that kind of support. This is why people like Samsung phones.
Remember this is a budget phone, but not bad for the price.

Yep, 100% I am not voicing my entire-thought process with all the details out-loud laugh out loud for it would be a rambling mess. But this is the quilting point I settled on, for while Apple is better with updates I think this is the best I am going to get for the price I want to spend nod

(thanks for the feedback, it helps settling things)

If youre planning to use it on tmobile, then might as well get the Metro version for $50 + $40 first month and total $90. Also unlocks in about 60 days. You wont have the extra TF 1yr plan, but could get the flip phone w 1yr plan from TF on ebay for $25-30, and that matches this offer in total cost in the end.

Metro unlocks in 181 days (6 months). That's a lot longer than 2 months Frown

Does Tracfone auto unlock in 2 months? Any cases or situations where unlock did not occur?
