I got the free (with trade in) Moto Edge 2022 phones on T-Mobile. Pretty cool phone, high end features in a mid-range price. Free making it better (trading in previous "free" phones to get it). Big phone, very nice screen, some useful features, close to stock look and feel.

This Moto Edge+ 2022 has a lot of similarities to the non-Plus, but some key differences:
Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 (2022 flagship processor) vs the Mediatek Dimensity 1050
this has 512GB of storage (!) vs 128GB
USB-C supports HDMI vs doesn't. This is important since both phones have a Desktop mode called Ready For like Samsung's DeX, but the non-Plus version can only do it through Miracast (wireless with lag) or over USB with Windows. Desktop mode (DeX) is probably most useful over HDMI, which the Edge+ can do.

With the phone being locked to Boost makes it very unappealing if you're not planning on staying with them. And Motorola has promised 4 years of updates with bimonthly security updates, but my Edge 2022 is still on Android 12, with Google getting ready to release 14 later this year, and security update still on Dec 2022, despite nearing the end of February.

I, like others, have been burned by Motorola and their update promises in the past.

But man, all that this phone packs for that price is so intriguing.

Would be a great deal if it can be unlocked easily. Without unlock, this is lukewarm at best.

12 month assuming with $25 plan = $300 + $200 for phone = $500. Might as well buy another flagship at that price.

It's T-Mobile
Boost uses both ATT and TMobile towers because of the merger. They are starting to slowly phase out TMobile activations. Most of the newer sim cards are black (ATT network).

Where is $25 plan? $25 for every month? High end phone?

"AT&T BOOST MOBILE SIM KIT ENVELOPE" is listed at checkout. Is this TMobile or AT&T towers? Also, where's the unlocking fine print? It just says you will be charged $40 monthly until you cancel.

My first assumption when buying a phone from ANY carrier is that the phone would be SIM locked to that carrier. Even more so when the phone is discounted. At 75% discount, well, you get my point.

As usual, I'll be happy to be proven wrong.

Try starting here: https://deals.boostmobile.com/myp...mo-hp-mybm

"After your first month, you will pay $25/mo unless you go online to cancel. By continuing, you agree to our Terms and Privacy policy. New customers only. Requires Autopay. For iPhone, requires iOS 15.2 or higher. 5G service requires compatible device. 5G is not available everywhere. *Unlimited Data: After 30GB high speed monthly data allotment is exceeded, speeds may be reduced for the remainder of the month."

This is the AT&T sim. About 2 weeks ago I ordered the sim, put it in an old Motorola phone, and transferred my number while activating it. Charged $12.50 for the first month. Has been working fine. Last week they offered the https://my.boostmobile.com/shop/edge.html link. I ordered the phone for $200 and it is due tomorrow. I'll follow up when it arrives.
