i think last time they gave me $40 off for 1 year unlimited plan.
So $320 instead of $360? That's not a huge deal at all.

How much did you pay for the p10xl? Consider total cost.The way it did was. I bought a pixel 10a from boost mobile for 160. I'm trading that in for $300.Cost breakdown:$630 with tax for the s26 + 160 with tax for pixel 10a = $790 - 300 (trade in value) = $490. Plus im going to try to sell the 1 year of mint. So hopefully i can save another $50 to $100 from that.
I paid 420$ for the p10xl from last Mint sale in November, but Pixels are known for not holding value too well, so I'm thinking too just trade it in and then resell the S26 instead. I also noticed the $300 trade in for the pixel 10a is good value considering they sell for $350 or so aftermarket

Do the phones arrive already unlocked?

Will it unlock within 60 days if I take the Mint Sim card and use it on another unlocked device or the Mint Sim has to be used on the S26 for it to unlock in 60 days.

There is a new deal for S26 Ultra with Sprectrum with 700$ off - Check it out. Also they have new deal for Spectrum internet with 2 free phone lines for 30$ per month
I've got Spectrum at home, and they gave me a free Mobile line for a year. However, when my home internet went down, so did the Mobile! I had no backup. Frown

If your phone breaks, you can just swap it into new phone and get it repaired. Also you can always convert to esim if need arise. So better stick to psim...

If for some reason your phone broke and couldn't boot up, you are pretty much screwed if you have esim until you find a retail store.
Transferring esim by yourself requires both phones working. For that reason I'll never get the Esim if I have a choice

great question was wondering same. Was willing to try out this service but plan to keep my other monthly for a at least the first couple months. My service gets spotty in some areas and i have a top carrier. Wanted to see if my phone is the issue as well.

$400 trade in value on certain phones too, effectively making this a free upgrade
