Community Reviews

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.

    roberthhidtxdfgzrecoilporksmugglers

  • 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.

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.
if for home internet, you can enable hotspot on the tablet,

I'm using it with an anker USB-C Ethernet gaming dock, tablet/phone WiFi too weak and unstable w/ high traffic

With the A9+ deal, I was able to sign up for a new line and order a few shortly afterwards. Any way to do that with this as well? Or will it not let you or not apply the discount?
And does anyone know which phone plan is the cheapest to be able to add the tablet as an additional line, if I can sign up now for a month?
Thanks.

If I currently own a main Metro line and add this tablet as the second line, would letting this tablet line expire by not paying affect my main line? (Assuming I keep paying the main line)
Not going to work. It will combine monthy bill. Say you pay 25 now, after buying your bill will be 45 and if you not going to pay your account will be suspended along with your phone line.

Ah, duh. I saw that, but apparently needed it spelled out. Thank you. I am not currently an existing customer, but will gladly become one if I can get this tablet for $20. At $120, not worth it to me. I understand the deal is for existing customers only, but I would still expect to see some language spelling out the deal on the public-facing website. If it's only shown on the existing customer-facing website, that makes more sense why I'm not seeing it. Can you confirm that as an existing customer, you don't see the "$250 rebate" language but rather $350 or something like that? Thank you.

I ordered the A37 today. So, do I need to wait to activate the A37 line in order to get this at $20?

As long he/she cancels the tablet line only, they'll be fine keeping the main account

or auto cancel by giveaway the number to ppl who want a port-in deal, and can keep the $20 credit if delay activate till ready to port-out. i haven't tried same day but they do prorate.

also possible getting a $10 10GB(not sure) line which may also have unlimited hotspot w/ the APN trick. someone took this offer when they tried to cancel.
