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.
EDIT: A7 lite
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.

Decided on the samsung because will be using it as car GPS so the ram might be more important. Also quick share, so I can transfer video files from my samsung phone faster

Best buy is to buy and sell for like 120 on Offerup or Facebook, don't even open it.
It won't let me sign in. Should I open the box and activate the phone to get the tablet deal?
Thanks
You can't just swap sims like on other carriers -- your online account or Metro app should have option for "switch phone" for free (you can phone their CS but they'll charge a service fee)

You can try activating it to see if it still has unused service (doubt it) -- I think you'll need an active line to get tablet deal

Except now I can't use the imei to sign up again because it's associated with an account now, and I can't get into said account to pay because I never paid or got a phone number to login with.
Any tips?
