Best Buy's page if you want to activate an unlocked device as part of the order says "We're currently only able to activate service on this unlocked device with Verizon, Google Fi Wireless and AT&T."

But that doesn't mean the phone isn't compatible with T-Mobile, it probably means they don't stock T-Mobile SIMs and service. Do you have a source that says this unlocked phone from Best Buy will not take a T-Mobile SIM?

Also, trade-in note at checkout if you're selecting store pickup is "Bring your trade-in device to the store when you pick up your new item."

The real deal was trade in two phones towards a pixel 8 pro. Only a few ppl snagged it by doing trade in in store.
Nobody snagged anything. Nobody has any proof they could stack 2 phone elevated trade in credit. Someone that did prove me wrong with a picture. Just one maybe 2 people saying they did. And then when I asked detailed questions they didn't respond lol.

Isn't the total cost: 239+150 = 389? Taxes extra

Edit: the above cost holds true If you were to buy iPhone from Walmart

Correct. You pay $389 instead of $699. But nobody is dumb enough to pay full price for Android devices.

True bruh. Maybe 55$ or less... looks like Google is following Apple in changing the phone looks... Google that's one of the reasons why I don't get an Apple..

That's my only real gripe about the Pixel 7. It reads my left thumb almost every time. It reads my right thumb about half the time. No amount of calibration will fix it for more than a day. My Pixel 5 worked every time with any finger.

I'll wait for Black Friday to see if there is a better offer
I had the same issue, and I eventually realized that my right thumb (and hand) had drier skin, being my dominant hand. It's the same problem on my S23 Ultra. If your skin is cracked, it won't pick up your fingerprint. P8 Pro supposedly has Level 3 face unlock, which is on par with iPhones.

For anyone like me a bit concerned about using the Walmart StraightTalk SE with Best Buy trade in and having it declined as is not Verizon carrier or whatever, I went with this used Sprint option that fully aligns to BB rules. It is $189 instead, but after $460 trade in, still yields net ~$300 off the Px8, depending on your state tax (BB refunds tax).

I was all set to trade in an old iPhone 12 I have laying around. They are offering $550 for it. So I was gonna pull the trigger. But the performance killed it for me. Geekbench on the pixel 8 is 20% lower than the 3 year old iPhone 12 base model. That's pretty sad. Not gonna spend $150 for a slower phone.

Yes, with port in you get 12 month of service, without you will get 6 months. People mentioned you can get a number to port in for cheap. I use google voice so the carrier number does not matter to me.

I sold the phone to with $10 profit and keep the free 12 months service.

No, once you sign the trade in, your phone is gone. You can't get it back.
You won't get back the trade in value either
Think clearly before do the trade in

Pixels have never been performance based. They care more about efficiency and user perks. I have a pixel 6a and see very little difference compared to the iphone 12 and 15 when actually using apps
