This Mint Mobile bundle pairs a Pixel 9 with a year of unlimited talk, text, and data, and the strongest appeal is getting a new phone and service for under $400. The Pixel can be resold after the unlock period, which can make the service cost feel nearly free, and the phone also brings Satellite SOS and physical SIM support. The main catches are the 128 gigabyte storage, the one year Mint lock, and reports that activation may be limited to new lines with a 45 day activation window. It is a practical value play if the storage and carrier lock are acceptable.

  • The deal can effectively reduce service cost when reselling the Pixel after a short trial period.

  • Mint ordering reportedly gives a 45-day window to activate the service and phone.

  • The purchase flow reportedly may allow completing the deal without entering a phone number or having a Mint account.

  • The phone can fit tight budgets when Satellite SOS is needed for driving in areas without cell signal.

  • The 128GB storage can feel too small after data migration and loading, which can limit practical use.

  • The Pixel 9 can remain locked to Mint for an extended period, with bootloader unlock reportedly occurring about 60 days after activation.

  • The Pixel 9 camera can struggle in low-light, with over-sharpening and weaker portrait edge detection.

  • The deal may be limited to new lines, since existing accounts can show the phone at full price.

Not the current model, low capacity, not a very good phone but locked for one year.

Got this deal last year. The year of service plus a new phone under $400? Hard to argue the deal here. If you hate the phone, just resell it after the time period to unlock it.

Seems to be a great deal on 10 pro XL. I bought US Mobile service for 300, which should be refundable. Mint service + 10 pro XL comes for 570 plus taxes minus 200 for 8 pro trade-in. In total it would be ~ 150 more than US Mobile, but with a phone upgrade

I'm looking at moving 4 lines to either US Mobile or Mint. I have 2 phones already and need to get 2 more as Xmas gifts for the kids. Would it be smart to buy 4 of these pixel 9 / 12 month bundles and sell the 2 extra phones? Seems like an awesome deal but I wasnt sure if part of the promo meant having to keep or use the phone or something. Sales just said I need to activate them within 45 days but im thinking that means the line, not the phone itself. TIA ( new to prepaid companies )

Would like to know as well. I'm actually on mint with pixel 9 from this same deal last year but I'd like to apply the 12 month to my current plan and either flip my current pixel or this new one.

Got mine today and put my USM sim in it before booting. It's locked to Mint. Seems like some got lucky with the P10 pro deals not these p9

Bootloader is locked until Mint does a carrier unlock which happens 60 days after activation/use on their network. AFAIK only Verizon and their MVNOs keep the BL locked even after a carrier unlock.
