I really like the A54 and to the point of using it more than my Pixel 6a.Latest One UI 6.1 and android 14 is smooth

The ID verification took a minute and wasn't hard at all. I had an A54 in the past and didn't like it at all. It was super heavy and really sluggish. Decided to try the Moto Stylus 5G 2024 as it is lighter and has 8GB RAM. For $100 (minus about $10cb), I am willing to give it a try as a secondary phone. Worst case will just sell it after it unlocks and recover what I spent on it.
"super heavy"? Moto Stylus 5G 2024 weighs less than a half oz (.4) vs the Sam A54..

Samsung phones always feel a bit sluggish. As if the interface is bogging it down.

Stylus 2024 has ufs 2.2. I don't know if A54 has same or faster. I wonder how Stylus compares to thinkphone ufs 3.1. My TP is getting sluggish once storage filled up about half way. Out of the box all phones seem fast. Moto TP has 300+ background processes and apps running. I hope some day will root and debloat. With this locked Stylus won't be possible other than disabling some bloat apps.

Yeah, the Moto is 12g lighter, but also has a larger display and a stylus. I think a better comparison would be the 2024 Moto Edge, which is substantially lighter than the A54 at 174g. In any case, the bigger issue I had with the A54 was the sluggish performance. Lots of stutters and jerkiness.

And just to clarify, I don't have my Moto Stylus 5G 2024 yet. It's arriving on Friday. Will test it out and form my opinion at that point. The A54 was just not for me, so I sold it as a locked Metro phone for cost. I like to try new phones, so don't mind picking up new ones just to play with.

Price is $40 + $15 service.
The service is probably a pricing error, expect that to change.

I purchased one for $40 as an upgrade, so if your account is eligible for an upgrade you don't need a new line.

Good to know, thanks. Ordered this from Total Wireless for $100 with port in. They unlock in 60 days. Much better deal IMO if you want an unlocked phone.
total wirerless asks for id verification...what kind of identity are they expecting to verify

Tempting as just an emulation device. Don't need it as a phone.

Yeah, looks like a price mistake to me. The Boost Facebook page has a graphic showing the item as costing $99.99. Another thing odd is that for new users, Boost is allowing them to choose any available service plan. Normally, subsidized phones require and only have the one option of starting the $60 monthly plan.

As to the phone itself, there is a discrepancy in regards to the amount of physical RAM included in the device. While the upper portion of the page where specs are lists the device as having 8gb memory, the legal notice at the bottom says 4gb physical RAM + up to 4gb Boost (aka virtual RAM).

Unfortunately, I am not getting involved with this deal as I am about 7 months away from being able to receive upgrade pricing.
