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.

I don't get it. I re read the first few pages and assuming I got the right website I need to pay $15 to unlock yet some people have paid much less ?
That's because there are many sites offering unlocking service. The site I went to (also mentioned in this thread) was just under $8.

Most phones in this range on SD are slow or have too many compromises, like 128GB or poor screen. The battery on this phone with custom is unlike anything I've seen. Most times I charge every 3 days.

it was $105 two days ago.
this could've been a moneymaker deal if i got the 30day money back guarantee

The $1300 2025 razr ultra, and the razr+ have newer Snapdragon CPUs, but USB 2.0, so no Display/Smart Connect out via cable. I personally have no interest in a folding phone.
When I bought my Sony 65Z9D TV in 2019, it was a 2016 model that was still being made because it was their best TV. Newer ones were not as good. It's like they secretly knew people wanted actual good quality so they kept making it, but they were making their money on newer models that were cheaper to make.
To be fair though, they didn't intended for it to be sold for $120. Just happened to be a deal boost decided to do to get customers. I'm sure they didn't know about the unlock.

I ran an AnTuTu benchmark on this phone and it got 1.8M AnTuTu scores. That is an impressive score for $120 phone.
The price is really funny, since old phone in tech years. The 8 Gen2 is a flagship chip, doesn't matter that the phone is $10 or $500 like an old S23 Ultra. Usually something this old gets discontinued by the carrier. Why is Moto still making these? That's my thought. They are losing so much.
