This phone is back in stock
https://www.boostmobile.com/shop/...-2022.html
As posted in previous threads.
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.
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.

Edit: For additional context, I tried it with already activated and working sims (from an S22U) on US Mobile, Visible, and a Verizon Prepaid sim. I could make calls, use data, but couldn't send texts. Support for all of them confirmed with me that this model wasn't compatible (despite it having the same model number as an unlocked phone from Moto's website).
for people complaining about RAM, they can increase RAM by 1 GB to make it 5GB usable allocation
goto settings - system -RAM Boost -Enable 1GB extra RAM allocation here. This step swaps 1GB space from your 128GB and allocate as RAM virtual swap memory , with all Motorola devices from 2022 onwards we are able to increase RAM.
Edge+ 2022 gives 2GB extra swap allocation to make it total 10GB
Moto G base model gives 0.5 GB or 512MB of extra RAM as well.
Please thank me for revealing this trick

I've absolutely smashed this phone on the ground 4-5 times with zero damage. Do you not have a case?
When i receive this , do i need to insert the boost m sim or insert other sim and then look for an unlock code via ebay? Or is it mandatory to insert the boost m sim and then unlock
Google for "boost mobile cashback" - you'll find a list of many sites. I found one starting with the letter T that offers $25 for new customer or 1% for existing customer; I've used that site before for other deals but not for Boost. YMMV - proceed at your own cost / risk.
