I'm seeing Google Pixel 9 128gn plus one year of the unlimited plan for $579. ($399 for phone, $180 for plan.) I assume normal 60 day unlock?

I see a similar deal for Pro XL. $699+$180.

Pixels are unlocked at factory. Is Mint is really locking these phones?

If they are locking, do these phones come in opened/resealed boxes? Does the Mint SIM needs to be in this phone for 60 days to get it unlocked?

Yes they are really locked and yes they must be active with Mint for 60 days before unlock.

As far as I know they order them locked right from Google. Just because google doesn't lock them when you buy via google store doesn't mean they can't.

horrible battery life

It is 6 months if you don't port in, 12 months if you do. Not sure where you're getting 1 month. This is a repost of an existing front page deal. Not looking good for your first ever post.

There are exactly ZERO Pixel 9 phones on ebay for less than $400 right now. With the $180 off service, it effectively makes this deal $220 for the phone. Show me any phone that performs better at that price.

Also, it seems odd to buy a "ton" of things you apparently hate.

I've bought 2 Pixels from Mint in the past. Both had the 60 day verbage, but both were UNLOCKED right out of the SEALED box.

When you bought? I bought one 7 pro. It is locked using some kind of apps. So if you use VPN to limit the APP's connection, the phone can take other sims. But later I asked Mint and Mint unlocked the phone for me.

$400 does not include the service fee $180. How did you get $220 then?
Total is $400+$180+tax and fee

I bought a 7 and it was unlocked right out of the box. Sold the phone for what i paid for the whole package. Essentially got a year of unlimited for free. Good times.

This deal comes with a year of service, so if you expect any bites, you'd have to go less than $400.

Hence the " message me if you are interested in this deal for the phone only". I'm aware of their going rate I am selling them on eBay. I actually shipped out a base pixel 9 on Monday to a buyer on eBay who purchased for $ 800 flat, I suppose that I've just spent more time on the water fishing then most. I don't value the mint contract as you guys do, that's why I'm looking for someone who is in the same ( fishing ) boat and wants to pay $500-$600 for a pixel 9.

So, after purchasing this deal, can I activate the sim card, port my number, and use it on another phone? and use the pixel device with any other simcard or is the sim card locked to the IMEI of device purchased?
