The Galaxy Tab A11+ is a fast, solid 11 inch tablet that stands out for everyday use, media, and travel, especially at the promo price. It feels noticeably quicker than the A9+, supports fast charging, and pairs well with Samsung devices. The tablet can come with either eSIM or physical SIM support, but Metro activation and checkout can be finicky, with browser issues, call in requirements, and account limits that may block extra orders. It is a strong value if you can get through the ordering hurdles and do not need a hassle free setup.

Common Questions (5)

  • Chrome Incognito, Safari, or the Metro app after clearing its cache have all been used to complete checkout. Firefox and some browser extensions can get stuck on the next page, and calling in is another fallback.

  • It works on Wi‑Fi right away, and some units have been used with T-Mobile SIMs after flashing or CSC changes. Other reports say the device is network locked and may not accept a pure T-Mobile SIM without extra steps, so compatibility is not guaranteed.

  • The tablet can come with eSIM, and several buyers report receiving eSIM-only units. A physical SIM option was not visible during checkout, so if you need a removable SIM for another device, this deal may not fit.

  • The one-month plan is enough to start the unlock clock, but the tablet still needs about 365 days before it auto-unlocks. Activation must happen first, and if it is never activated the unlock timer does not start.

  • The promo is tied to existing Metro customers, and checkout can fail until the account has had an active line for at least 30 days. Newer accounts may see the offer but still get blocked at checkout or be forced to call in.

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.

Use Chrome Incognito mode. Metro App -> delete app cache from settings --> Metro app

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?
