It's 68 pages for a reason - it unlocks immediately with a $3-5 unlock token.
the chip is also better on the s25fe. only downside here is the storage.

how u like it?
initial first impressions?
what phone are u coming from/comparing/replacing ?
thoughts on 24fe v 25fe?
In terms of specs, S25 is superior in every way, except that the display is too small for my liking. S25FE is very similar to S24FE, both having Samsung Exynos 2400 with S24FE has the pared down version 2400e. Big plus for me is the S25FE weigh less than 200g, the comfortable cutoff point for me. Anything heavier than 200g gets uncomfortable for extended use.
In terms of performance, I do not see any difference for my intended use among the 3 phones. I do not play games or graphic rendering so the S25 SD Elite is an overkill for me. All 3 perform relatively the same for my intended use, which is multi-tasking with lots of apps opened, videos, and music. One big negative I noticed from the S25FE is it runs much hotter than the other 2. Exynos 2400 with faster clocked speed might be the reason. I'm not a fan of Exynos, and it's ironic that the phone is called Fan Edition. But it's cheaper than the S25.

I was going to get this s25 Fe but I think I'm going to wait to see what kind of promotions come up for the Black Friday.
100+65+tax. Is a good price.
But 0 + 65+ tax is better.
If I can get that for either of the Fe editions in November.
I don't think I would ever consider s25 without the Plus or ultra.

So if you want to port in at end of month, order now, wait for it to arrive in the next few days and wait to activate.
You could buy a phone at full price and upgrade it every 2~6 years, or just use these deals to upgrade year over year for a fraction of the full price of a phone. The hope is that you can recoup the original costs over time instead of just having e-waste by the time you actually are ready to upgrade again.
For those wondering about T-Mobile activation, it kinda still works on the motorolas and less on the Samsungs but give it a try:

I'll repeat below:
1. As soon as you take it out, DO NOT insert the Metro SIM, instead, insert your T-Mobile SIM
2. Start the phone
3. It either starts working or it throws an error
4. If it starts working, you can put the Metro SIM in the drawer and it will autoactivate after I think 14 or 20 days
5. I think you can use the Metro SIM in another phone to use the service
6. The phone will unlock in a year during which you can only use it on T-Mobile
The moment you insert the Metro SIM into the phone, it will lock it

I highly doubt that these recent FEs will drop to $0. S23FE briefly hit that price once and it was quickly gone. I never had a chance at that time. The S24FE and S25FE are very close to flagship level so the demand for them is higher than before. I was hoping for S24FE to drop to $50 once S25FE comes out, but it didn't. Even at $80, Metro is having problem keeping it stocked. I called in a few times checking on when it will be available, but no estimate time is given.
Text FOUR to 611611 that will provide you with the Last 4 #'s of your Account number, then match that to your IMEI

Straight Talk currently uses the same protocol as Visible in which the confirmed port-in from Metro does not trigger immediate deactivation of the line at Straight Talk. The deactivation from Straight Talk happens when your phone is shipped and you activated online via the email link or Order Status page. This is the industry standard.
TracFone still uses the old protocol. At the ordering stage, once Metro requested and confirmed the port, TracFone deactivates the line immediately. After a few failed attempts, I got fed up and filed FCC complaint. Tracfone responded quickly by reactivating the line and helping me through the porting process until I'm done.
I don't bother with Total Wireless anymore due to the required ID upload and no guarantee that those IDs are permanently safe.

maybe it will not go to 0.
maybe it will
the s23fe did go to 0, just days after release.
i got 2 of them.
was gonna keep for my son and i.
eventually sold all 3 for a handsome profit.
24fe are low inventory .
historically, when that happens, they dont restock online.
still up on website for refence to in store store.
25fe price may be lower on BF. may not.
however now, (unlike the old days)
metro deals are not that attractive, given the 365 day wait.
not too many will wait that long
i imagine not too many folks are buying the phones
(i have bought just 1 in last ~9 months)
(where before i would average 1 per month lol)
so i expect/hope metro to have more deals.
but maybe i will just cave in and get 1 x 25fe @ 99 price.
son has the only phone currently that can accept esim.
in june i used twigby $5 plan with his esim capable for porting into metro for a36 deal
son is back from vacation, but will leave for school in 1 weeks time
