Metro allows their phones to be unlocked after ~180 days. Some Metro phones work with T-Mobile out of the box, though I'm not sure if that's the case with this specific phone.

are samsungs able to be flashed to unlock more bands?

1080p30 is for the front facing Selfie camera only. 🤣 you will see video at full fps on the screen.

I got my A23 today but there was no Sim card included. I called support and they were clueless. How do I activate the phone?

Does the 6 month unlock timer start only upon activation?

Basically, if I don't activate the SIM card for one month service, I cannot unlock the phone in 6 months?

Good phone but it's probably going to just get 1 android update and that will be that, like most Motorola phones.
Where'd you get that info? My mom's A10 got several updates throughout the life of the phone. Why would a newer A series get less or just one?!

This. A14 5g has a lower end processor, lower 90hz screen vs 120hz on the A23 5g, slower charging speed 15W vs 25W on the A 23 5g, less os update support than the A23 5g, no ois.
Avoid the A14 5g.
Who said less updates?

This is an excellent phone. The screen is lcd but has a 120 mh screen which looks better than my Pixel 7 . Camera is kind of meh, not in the class of a iPhone or Pixel.
Bro ppl getting A series find these phones good enough cus Iphones & S series are overkill with specs and prices. I realized myself all I need is a simple working phone and not need to compare brightness & other trivial specs when I just need to call and text someone and browse some reddit. These A series are game changers. Most ppl think iPhone is just the default phone to buy, it's kind of sad.
