The device is sluggish unless you do the following: go to device care-memory- turn off ram plus. Also go to accessibility-vision enhancements-hit decrease animations.
It runs fine for me after removing most of the Samsung bloat through ADB. I have ram plus turned on and have no issues. Swapping apps is fast! It all boils down to the Samsung bloat running in the background

very simple coz its a tablet NOT a phone. A computer can make phone call too. but do you see anyone carry a pc on the street to use it as a phone?
Don't listen to this guy, t makes calls just fine although I don't have metro anymore. I use free TextNow off Wi-Fi and it calls with no problem.

Does adb allow you to remove the Samsung apps on this tablet? Normally it only turns off the apps.

My 3 razr lines ends tomorrow, if I buy this today will I be able to activate it when I get the device or will it roll over to next month?

You can get a 72 hours extension after the first month has expired (suspended). Then you can activate and use your tablet for 3 days.

Sure. You can go to Metro and get a Moto G Stylus for $55 w/o port in. https://www.metrobyt-mobile.com/c...=1&afsrc=1
Activate it and then get this tablet new for $20 . Total $75.

If we get the tablet can we sell it to a buyer and can they add it to their Metro account to use the 5G service or will it still be locked under my Account until the 2 months has passed with no payment? How about Tmobile..can it be used there or that too will not work for Tmobile customer as long it is active under my Metro account? If I cancel the line will it then be possible for them to activate online their Metro or Tmobile 5G service?

Today is my last day on metro, I ordered yesterday and they shipped out today, but I won't receive til Monday. I check the order status and see the activate button. Should I activate it? or wait til I get device and do the 3 day extension.

Thanks OP, Hope it ships as I was able to order as my $65 month Razr is expiring tomorrow.
I'm in the same boat, iI just bought tonight, and my plan from buying the Razr expires Tomorrow, Sunday. No way it gets here in time to activate it, unless I can activate from the shipping email, which will probably not be possible. Worst case I can not active, and it never unlocks, and it is a WiFi only device, which is probably how I would use it anyway.
