10/3/2025.
Reports are that boost may may changed their T & C.
(Around 10/1/2025 . maybe, not clear)
Requiring activating phone and using service for some time.
(3 months?).
Do your research.
However, may not matter much as phone appears to be gone for good from boost website.
________________________________________________________________
You must activate the phone on boost network within 30 days of purchase.
If not you may be charged the full MSRP of the Device(s).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
best practice=open the phone. activate the boost account. make a call or 2. send a text or 2
phone call &/or text just insures the phone number has been fully registered on the boost network
while not entirely necessary, just to be safe.
and not get a $600 bill or get sent to collections
[ which has happened to at least one user on this thread ]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
make sure u activate.
By checking this box I agree to e-transaction/e-signature, Privacy Policy, Terms & Conditions. Once activated I authorize Boost Mobile to automatically charge my card monthly for my Boost Mobile services, taxes and surcharges. My service will not begin until my SIM is activated. If you do not activate your Device(s) on the Boost Mobile network within 30 days of purchase, you may be charged the full MSRP of the Device(s) (less your purchase price), if applicable, to the card used today or any alternative method. . I also agree to receive communications regarding this order via email, SMS, or phone call using the contact information provided
_____________________________________________________
Buying multiple phones?
Consider this.
The first phone will be 120.
Subsequent phones (either purchased at same time on withing next few days) will be less.
Boost has a weird way of billing and its often confusion. No one has figured it out yet.
Many have made speculations:
For example. Below is from a user.
My first purchase cost me $125.90 in total then subsequently thereafter I purchased 2x more phones which came out to $94.84 each.
Since you bought the first phone at regular price, Boost treats any further purchases as an additional line since they're on the same account.
However, bear in mind Boost will automatically enable autopay again so be sure to disable it prior to your next billing cycle recurring.

You can activate without opening the boxes most times. Call activity from that device is not necessary, at least not currently.
I have sent a dm, please check
Most people are unlocked the same day they get theirs. If you need shoot me a DM.
Whoa!!! really - so i could start using it with another carrier next day?
The phone is nice, besides Monitor output and sheer SoC power and gaming performance, I find this phone to perform just as good as my Moto G Stylus 5G 2024. I couldn't see any noticeable difference between the two on normal usage. I do much prefer a flat screen over a curved one. Reason why I'm sticking with my Stylus 5G for now. Haven't been able to find a case that protects the edges of the display in case of an accidental drop on a parking lot, etc.

With the Motorola Moto G Stylus 2024, it doesn't even have any gorilla glass. It has a hardened scratch resistant display. The Stylus 2025 got Gorilla Glass 3. The Edge+ is using Victus Gorilla Glass which is 2x more scratch resistant than Gorilla Glass 6 so you know it is far more stronger than your Stylus 2024 hardened display with tempered glass. I have never cracked or scratched any of my phone's display. I used tempered glasses with majority but the ones that have the slight curved display, I didn't use any tempered glass and just a case. I didn't damage them.
You could also use Supershieldz film protection against scratches and probably helps a little bit more against drops on display contact. You shouldn't let the edge curve deter you from using the Edge+. It has very strong Victus. There is still lip protection on the top, bottom and corners with the Edge+ case. It still has side protection but no side lip protection. If I were to drop the Edge+ with my case on on a hardwood floor, I can't see how the display can make any contact with the flat floor as it has raised corner lip protection. With bumpy gravel ground, I have never ever dropped any of my phones on gravel. Hold phone more secure on gravel ground. It also helps when one pays $120 sale on a phone rather than $799.99 launch price to be little bit more risky with having a lesser case protection.
Looking around at the other major banks basically say the same thing. Here's Chase https://www.chase.com/personal/cr...uick-guide
I highly doubt locking/freezing your card would block a recurring payment to Boost. Your better off turning off AutoPay, using a prepaid card or a virtual card and then deleting it.
Is it mandatory to activate on Boost or I can simply unlock and start using a different carrier? TIA
