Yes. It works from day 1. No need to wait for unlocked.
Thanks, one more question. Did it work with both T-Mobile prepaid & postpaid? Is yours T-Mobile postpaid?

There's no difference between the two as far as the lock is concerned. If it works on postpaid, it works on prepaid.

Can you confirm this still works with a T-Mobile SIM? Mine is now showing "SIM not allowed"

That's concerning! I am seeing reports that after the latest update, T-Mobile SIMs stopped working in locked metro phones

For those who bought this phone:
  1. What's the model number?
  2. What do you like and dislike
  3. What you would have gotten the metro a35 instead (both are free right now + $75 plan)

A35 doesn't have wireless charging and this have. But A35 should be able to get more updates.

FYI, while I activated my phone at June, I still can unlock it after 180 days.

I guess metro haven't finish the changes to their software infra yet so at least some phone still will be unlocked after 180 days even you activated the phone after May.

I was able to unlock my phone that was activated on 06/05/2024. Looks like there is at least a transition period.

No wifi calling when some Metro phones are used with other services!!! May be this is another reason, carrier specific phones are cheaper.

I am planning an international trip and want to make sure that wifi calling is working so I can receive some verification SMSs. When I check my moto G Stylus 5G 2023 with RedPocket (T-Mobile) Sim, and navigate to Settings, mobile network, ..., Red Pocket, under Calling I only see Allow 2G/5G but NO WIFI CALLING. Without the option the wifi calling cannot be enabled. When I switched to a Metro Sim, the wifi calling option is back and can be enabled.

The problem was observed on moto G Stylus 5G 2023 but I assume that would also apply to 2024 phone. I also saw posts about the same problem on other carrier branded phones.

Some/most android phones with dual sims do not support wifi calling on one sim that relies on internet connection through the other sim.
I wasn't able to use wifi calling on red pocket t-mobile service using a metro moto g stylus 2023. Lockily, the wifi calling works fine for a metro moto g stylus 2024. Sorry for the mis-speculation.

Thanks for the data point on Metro's Moto G Stylus 2024.

I too had a WiFi calling issue with Metro's Moto G Stylus 2023 when used with Red Pocket GMST. Decided to try my luck with Metro's Motorola Edge 2024 instead though.
