Can't the second month of service be $35 + $10 by downgrading the phone's plan to the BRONZE plan and the tablet's plan to the unlimited plan? And both the phone and tablet should still get unlocked?

This is super intriguing. I've really wanted to get my hands on one of these NXTpaper devices and this seems to be the cheapest way to do it. Do I need it? No. Do I want it...

I am not sure 100% but I think the discounted tablet plan (down to $20 in place of $60) is only available with a minimum Silver Unlimited phone line plan for the second month as well. $10 tablet plan is also based on a discount

Do you see any terms for that? At https://www.straighttalk.com/plans/tablets, it just says "Save $40/mo when you bundle a tablet plan with a phone plan" and doesn't mention any specific phone plan.

Came across this Verizon press release, https://www.verizon.com/about/new...blet-plans, that states:

Quote :

The Total Wireless Base Unlimited Tablet Plan and the Straight Talk Wireless Tablet Unlimited Plan both deliver great value at just $10 per month when bundled with any of our phone plans, saving customers $40 each month.

Good to know. That's why I said 'i am not 100% sure' on my post.

Thanks for clarifying

FYI.
some people were asking about the terms

if you click on the GET OFFER DETAILS ( TOP OF PAGE ) it says

Offer valid through 07/10/25 while supplies last. Taxes and fees apply.

Promotion requires new activation on Tablet Unlimited+ Plan and a new or existing activation on single line Silver Unlimited Phone Plan or higher. Available online only. Limited to one device per account.

The question was what is the minimal phone/tablet plan required for the second month to be able to unlock both devices since 60 days of paid service is required for unlocking. Pretty sure the phone plan can be downgraded to BRONZE, but it wasn't clear whether this would affect the $40 bundle discount for the tablet plan.

Did anyone else order the TCL Tab 10 NXTPaper 5G and is still waiting on the order to ship? I ordered last week and haven't gotten any notice of shipment. When I check my order status at https://www.straighttalk.com/support/track-order, it says "Pending remote fulfillment".

Update:

I unexpectedly received the tablet via UPS even though I never got a shipping confirmation email. And the order status at https://www.straighttalk.com/support/track-order still says "Pending remote fulfillment" and doesn't show any UPS tracking. Something is seriously messed up with straight talk's shipment tracking system. I was able to activate the tablet without any issue though.

The TCL Tab 10 Nextpaper 5g have the Mediatek MT6835V/TZB(24E) chipset who is similar to the Dimensity 6300

If I just want a tablet for media consumption and don't care about the cellular connection what's the best one to go with?
