Does this come with the physical SIM or eSIM? If physical, can I try to put a different SIM(from another carrier) so the phone is not locked to Metro?

GV number port will eventually finish in 30 days even if your service expires and then your GV number will be gone from your Google account -- you won't get to keep the GV number
So when do you actually get the port complete email from GV? in 30 days I assume.

Is it possible to receive the metro login code on a tablet line instead of the primary phone line?

Details - iPhone 12 currently gets the login code and that's the only phone line, along with other tablet lines. I need the login code to be received on tablet. I didn't see any option online account.

Thanks for your help.

eSIM -- doesn't matter since the phone is locked to Metro from factory

Login with your tablet's phone number

You need to activate the 1st line and have that phone on hand in order to get SMS confirmation code to login to online account -- after that you can add a 2nd line to your account (2nd line should be $50 phone + $35 discounted plan rate)

If this is true: "the phone should have service for 180 days within 365 days", then no more deals from "Metro by T-mobile", sad!
Their unlock eligibility does not mention 180 days of service tho...

Unlock eligibility requirements

We unlock mobile devices that meet the following eligibility criteria free of charge:

The device must be purchased from Metro by T-Mobile.
The device must not be reported as lost, stolen or blocked.
Three hundred sixty-five (365) days must have passed since the device's activation date.

I ordered about 8 iPhone 12 in previous Metro deal in March, and I traded in all them for all kinds of deals the past half an year. For this price, there's nothing to lose. You can trade them in at best buy for gift card more than what you paid.
Thanks for the heads-up! I'm in for 1!

MetroPCS has to manually complete the port sometimes.

You alrdy have an online account (phone number + 8 digit account pin you created when ordering) but you'll need the phone in hand for SMS verification code to access the account each time

I would setup the phone since it'll automatically see the pending Metro eSIM on startup then you can try moving the eSIM to another compatible phone if you want to access your online account in the future -- otherwise just delete the eSIM and factory reset the phone (do a basic setup using wifi without logging in to your Apple account) before trading it in

I would try to move it to another phone just in case you want to add more lines or port out the number for another carrier promo
I have a question

Let's say I want to keep this GV number after I port in to Metro. Is it possible?

Can I port it back to GV? How soon after activating?

I know with Metro you have to do moving of SIM to another phone dealio with phone on hand (one from Metro) because service isn't tied to the SIM but also to the IMEI

Can I call up Metro right after activating and say I want to move esim to my unlocked dual SIM phone? Then I'd have it ready to port back to GV? But I don't want to pay more than the first month's service to make sure porting to Metro went through...

Do you have active service?
After the month of paid service is up, if you dont pay, it will be suspended. 30 days later the account is closed.
You would need to start a new account, by ordering a new phone or BYOD to the phone you already have.
Thanks, good to know - I left it to pass indeed.
