Deal Details
Boost Mobile [boostmobile.com] has 512GB Motorola edge+ 2023 Smartphone (Boost Mobile Locked, Black) on sale for $59.99 + $60 1-Month Unlimited Talk/Text/Data Service = $119.99. Shipping is free.

This phone is now back in stock at Boost. It's a steal at this price still has better specs than most phones out there especially with 512gb of storage. I bought one on last years deal and was able to unlock it via one of the unlockers who were kicked off of eBay. Many didn't have the unlock codes yet back then but would assume their available now. YMMV. I currently use mine with Instabridge esim for 5gb of free data a month. Just bought another for my wife.

Note, on product page select "I don't want protection" or Boost Protect will be added to cart at $12/month.

Specs (source [motorola.com]):
Processor: Qualcomm SM8550-AB Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 (4 nm)
Display: 6.7" 1080x2400 165Hz pOLED
RAM: 8GB LPDDR5X
Storage: 512GB

Used the website mentioned here to unlock it for $14.95. Got the code in minutes. This phone is almost as good as a galaxy s23 plus! Can't beat the value at this price. Thank you for posting this, OP!

Was paper still wrapped around phone?Got mine unlocked in 17 minutes. Time to order two more lol.​
Yes. Paper was there. But that paper is easily attachable and re attachable. The phone will easily slip in and out of that paper without it being opened

mine arrived and the box was sealed. BUT I can't activate the sim. It gets stuck on the Insert the SIM part. i insert it and it refuses to acknowledge that it's in there...never had this happen before and I've activated a LOT of phones.

EDIT: had to contact Boost and they activated it on their end. working

Yep, it's atually a pretty good case for $4 ( I see the price has gone up ), I just had to take off the magnet kickstand becasue it was blocking wireless charging. The unlock website posted above worked greate too, got my code in 30 mins and phone is unlocked ( will use with T-mobile once the boost plan is over)

Autopay is on by default had to setup the boost account (with email you ordered with) to disable it. Also can't remove current payment card unless replace it with another.

Port Lock is enabled by default have call support to disable it if plan to use number before it expires to get another discounted phone from Total/Metro

Yep, I activated the edge+ 2023 with Boost and it uses Dish's network. Dish has its own SA 5G data only network, PLMN code 313-340 in my area, and it's garbage, runs on band 71 (600mhz), but 5G speeds are slow for me (10-30mbps) down, only saving grace is that it uses AT&T for Voice Calling and Texting and I can roam on AT&T indoors with it.

Remerber with Boost's port lock, it only unlocks for 4 days before they put it back on so make sure to only call CS to turn it off within 3 days when you're ready to port out

i'm 3 weeks into a A36 purchase with metro.
so could probably add a line for cheap
but is there anything really worth getting at this point from metro?

edge 2025? ..is it worth it?

currently:
main=this 2023 E+
backup=A36 (7 ? years update promise)

any advantage to getting the edge 2025?
...im not sure worth the hassle to mail in somewhere for trade in

i assume that is your plan? send it for trade in money?

edit:
looking into the edge a bit more.
it is odd that metro list price is 299.
but everywhere else it is 549.
that is odd.

i guess i shld have picked up the edge 2025 instead of the a36 (list at 399) ?

Edge 2025 is downgraded to Dimensity 7400 from 2024 snapdragon 7s gen 2 i would only get it to sell and offset cost of this Edge+ 2023

Sellcell shows T-Mobile variant which is IMEI metro sells brand new sealed online phone shop is paying $195 and "Other Carrier" $165 sealed so can make $100+ easily.
