Believe you can wait a day or so [I waited 27 days] after initial month plan and than opt for lower second month plan.By waiting a day or so you ensure that second month plan goes past 60 days activation.See my post here https://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=177056479&postcount=269&peid=80a8bab8-2a2f-4e67-acb3-bfa28908f3d7
Did you have to pay anything additional to unlock besides the monthly plan payments or did it unlock automatically?

2024 G Power has a MediaTek (Dimensity 7020) [prefer Qualcomm]. That's why I originally passed on their deal in Nov. Finally, couldn't resist it and purchased one in Feb. Fears were allayed and can say that I am impressed/satisfied.

I did not realize that the unlocked Straight Talk fone would work on another VZW brand like Trac.

So did you ever activate on Straight Talk before using the Trac sim? I know my ST phone came with the sim installed although it was not fully activated.

Edit: I see you DID activate on ST. I thought that even with an eligible fone, you could not "sim swap" on Trac, so did you have to transfer your plan and "keep your number" on Trac? Or was it a simple sim swap?
it's plug-n-play.

Need not be consecutive.Note can have 1-29 days inactive after first month and then if buy a second month plan it will unlock at 60-62 days from initial activation.That is to say if get on May 1, inactive for 15 days and get second month plan [lower rate] on June 15 it will unlock around June 30 or July 1.
Thank you so much for the clarification! It unlocks automicatically right? I dont need to make any additional calls or make any payments to get it unlocked?

After you place an order, are you supposed to see the transaction in your Straight Talk account? I don't see any in mine, but I did get an order confirmation email.

Update:
My order shows up now at https://www.straighttalk.com/my-a.../my-orders. So it doesn't show up immediately after placing an order and maybe takes an hour or so to do so.

Moto G Power 2024's Dimensity 7020 has 19% faster single-core and 15% faster multi-core performance than Moto G Power 2025's Dimensity 6300 in Geekbench 6.4.

The improvements for 2025 are IP68/IP69 rating, Gorilla Glass 5, and an ambient light sensor on the rear.

Is this the standard Moto g power 5G that supports Verizon, T-Mobile, ATT despite ST being Verizon? Can this be used for T-Mobile after unlocking?

45 days ago, I was considering getting a second G Power 2024. Now, I finally got the auto unlock, I'm a little bitter and debating whether ~$75 (best case) is worth it, especially with the uncertainty lingering.
Might already be mentioned, but after first month, rebrand to tracfone and get the $15 plan is an option. People on reddit have confirmed it will unlock. I'll be able to confirm, Hopefully, in 2 days

Personally, I prefer the smaller, lighter 2024 version.

For the second month, I got the Bronze ($35) plan. For some reason, I got a $10 discount when I added it to the cart, plus $1 off for autopay. So, $50 for the Gold, if you got autopay, plus $24 for the Bronze. Some people said the didn't get the $10 off, so ymmv. Someone else said when they called the Unlock Dept and got denied under the old 60 day policy, they asked about a discount and got a[n even] better discount code. It was in one of the other threads. Again, ymmv.

The 2024 is no longer offered for free+Gold, only the 2025.
Good luck.

So, I bought a FREE Galaxy A16 from StraightTalk deal about 1.5 month ago (still waiting Galaxy A16 to be unlocked - haven't hit the 60 day mark yet).

1) Can I still purchase this Moto G Power 2025 "under the same account" or do I need to "create a new account" to get this deal?

2) How would I go about activating & transferring number from Galaxy A16 to this new Moto G Power? Ultimately, I want Moto G Power to be unlocked as well after 60 days.

Please advise on the steps I should take. Planning to place an order soon for Moto G Power.

I thought someone told me that if you do that, it restarts the 60 days for unlocking. Keep us posted because I had a friend do that as well.
