Community Reviews

The Galaxy Tab A11+ is a fast, solid 11-inch Android tablet that stands out for better performance than the A9+, long update support, and now fast charging. It also works well for everyday use, media, and travel, and some setups have used T-Mobile service, eSIM, or a physical SIM after activation. The main catch is that the Metro promo is not truly free, since it requires a qualifying $20 monthly tablet line, taxes, and sometimes activation or plan charges. Checkout can be finicky, and the device appears to be network locked until the unlock period runs out.

  • Metro customers who want a fast Android tablet for reading, streaming, and light work, because it feels noticeably quicker than the A9+ and handles media without lag.

  • Shoppers who plan to use the tablet on T-Mobile service after unlocking, because it can work with T-Mobile SIMs and some setups keep T-Mobile branding instead of Metro branding.

  • People comfortable with debloating and firmware tweaks, because disabling carrier processes and switching firmware can remove Metro branding and extra apps.

    gzrecoilScottoDonolou2004

  • Travelers who need a tablet with cellular data and hotspot support, because the line can provide unlimited data and hotspot can be used for home internet.

    Left4Dealgzrecoil

  • Buyers who want a simple one-and-done purchase, because the deal can require activation, browser workarounds, calling in, and repeated payment retries.

    AmusedPanther530gzrecoilkarthik_rkunal2212

  • Buyers who need a physical SIM for a travel router, because checkout may only offer eSIM and no way to request a physical SIM card.

    acontrastojorgenismo

  • New Metro accounts that need instant checkout, because the order flow can loop, refresh, or fail until the account has been active for about 30 days.

    SmilingHaddock380txdf

  • People expecting to move the tablet SIM into another device, because Metro binds the IMEI and SIM together and the SIM may not work elsewhere.

I just joined Metro a couple of days ago. I can see the deal and add the tablet to my cart, but I can't actually complete checkout. On the website, after I click checkout/continue, the page just keeps refreshing and never makes it to the payment page. In the Metro app, the cart loads twice and then the screen just goes black.

This deal seems restricted to accounts that have had an active line for at least 30 days, even though the promo still shows up for newer accounts.

Bummer. That's a deal breaker for me. I was hoping to be able to get the physical SIM to swap into a 5G travel router. I could not see any way to request or add the physical SIM card to cart during checkout.

Unfortunately I had just bought one for $49 plus $20 plan. Bought again now for trade in on a future purchase.
Tablet is indeed noticeably faster than the A9+. As soon as you get it turn ram plus off . Decline instillation of all the junk games.

Can you test it with T-Mobile sim to see if it works?

Just call in, it took maybe 8 minutes with the guy on the phone for him to get the order through for me, 20 dollars for a month of data for a free A11+ tablet is bonkers and well worth it.

Do these tablets need 365 days of active plan to be unlocked?
