You can bypass that by tapping four corners from top left, top right, bottom right, bottom left, do it for two more time in the same order, so total 12 tap, then press volume down, after that you will able to connect to wifi and set up without SIM.

Just FYI, if you want this tablet unlock after 180 days and you don't intent to keep your metro phone number , it's better to activate your tablet with metro sim as soon as possible. Otherwise this could happen:
1. It's time to pay your next metro phone bill, metro will charge you $40, it will charge from the $20 which you have paid for the tablet first, but of course that's not enough, so you still have a $20 due on your account.
2. After this point, you can't activate your tablet since you don't have $20 to pay the first month tablet charge any more...
3. Then your stable could be locked to metro forever since it never get activated on metro.

This sped up my tablet a lot.

As per Samsung: Remove animations: Tap this to negate screen effects from apps if your eyes are sensitive to animations. It can also help speed up your device a little.

Now both lines are standalone, but next month billing will be adjusted to the first line, i.e., $40 +$32 = $72.
So it will be prorated for the second line and adjusted to whichever comes early (my experience so far and the table should do the same).
Otherwise, they're pro-rated, so they can't do anything if we don't provide them with a credit card, and auto-pay is off. At worst, one line will expire and another will stay active, but I doubt that will happen based on my experience.
Only way to get this is to refresh my account for $40 or try and get a new phone then link a tablet. Don't want to spend another $60, would do $30-40 if a new deal shows up.
Thanks OP.

It is exactly the same as the one on my credit cards.
Address is the same too.
Totally idiotic system.
It also has a better octa-core processor (MT8768T) and TCL is quad-core (MT8766). Both have the ancient Cortex-A53 architecture, so expect lags and issues with resource-heavy apps and games.
The A7 Lite got Android 14 update (probably the last major one) and TCL is still on ... Android 12.
Totally idiotic system.
