If its a verizon phone and it unlocks after 60 days, does that mean it can be used on any carrier after that? I always thought "verizon" was its own thing
+1. Swore I'd never switch to an iphone for my personal phone. Pixel phones my last three phones but they just can't get it together. Android has lost me. Typing this from my 15 pro max which hasn't had any jank audio issues, reboot loops, wifi repeatedly disconnecting....No issues. Phone just works.
Can I modify it to my heart's content? Load custom roms? Maybe if I jailbreak it? I'm too old for that now and just want a phone that works.
I have an iphone 12 pro max and their last firmware update broke phone call audio. Apple is not signing the older software versions anymore so I cant revert to the working firmware. 2 updates ago the removed the default chimes for alerts and everyone was missing notifications because the other alerts were to low volume and it didnt register with people when they heard it. Many people missed important notifications as a result. I have been using iphones for a long time but I may switch back to samsung/android. Currently have an escalated support case with apple.
Same situation I hate my pixel pro 7...worst phone I have ever owned and up until I got this phone I was an avid Android fan. I still like Android but I want back into the Samsung eco system
I had the Pixel 7a and it was great but now I am on a Pixel 8 and use it more than my iPhone 15 pro max. What issues are you facing with the Pixel 7?

Well those are different phones and possibly different manufacturers. Pixel Pro 7 has massive touch screen issues (worst I have ever used out of 30+ android phones) and the system just hangs and freezes using the Google search app and other various apps. Also there are bluetooth connectivity issues since the last update. It's been a lemon since I got it a year ago

And my Samsung android has fun glitches too, like a notification sound will permanently duck/decrease all other audio volume, so your phone is extra quiet until a new notification resets it.
We either need to switch back from DEI to merit-based hiring or learn to cope with decreasing quality of every facet of our daily lives.

Wow! That was a giant leap from software quality to DEI hiring. Move on and don't buy a phone if you don't like it. Let's keep our posts related to the deal and not use Slickdeals as a vent for our political frustrations.

Heads up, I have a Fold 4. Worst phone I've owned. I love the concept but I've already had to replace the phone for the interior screen hinge malfunction. It of course happens days after the 1 year warranty but I was talked into the Samsung Care which is taking care of this. I've received a refurb phone to replace my original but I have zero faith in this phone after researching this issue and seeing how common it is. Samsung wants me to pay a bunch more money to upgrade to the Fold 5 instead.
So buyer beware. I'm trying to get out of this and into a S23 Ultra

Pretty much my experience too.
Had Android since G1 and take great care of my devices.
One day, about a year after purchase, I open my Fold 4 and screen splits down the middle from the tension in their crappy built-in screen protector.
Honestly think they need to fix this for good customers.
And of course, they have mysteriously skipped their (previously regular) repair promos for the Fold4.
Got it for $686+tax for an open box unlocked 512 GB, a week back. It was like new, I thought that was a price mistake.
Got lucky and picked up a Greek squad recertified fold 4 512gb two weeks ago for $557. It have some light scratches on the front screen but kept it since still had 20 months of the care plus warranty.
I thought I need to add this based on those folks who complained about their fold 4
Got my Fold 4 brand new on Aug 22. On may 23 the fold didn't open flat suddenly! I took it to u break I fix it and it was under warranty so they replaced the whole panel ($800!!) Under warranty. Less than 6 months later, in Nov 23, it happened again!!! And guess what! No warranty for it anymore. Today they announced s24 ultra and I don't see any Fold 4 in their trade in list!! There is fold 3 and fold 5 but somehow they omit fold 4! They know what mess they created with this one they don't even want to take it back! Now I got stuck with a fold 4 that no one buys it from me not even Samsung will take it back! Worst phone ever, avoid at any cost.
I will back up what everyone else said. I'm on number six with number seven waiting on me. They keep breaking. I was waiting on number seven to trade in on a s24 but they won't even take it on trade in!

It was listed about a week or two ago here, and open boxes were even cheaper.

So, now I have a narrow but thick regular phone.

These open boxes are very hit and miss.
