Verizon unlocking policy states the devices are unlocked immediately if you pay in full.

Community Reviews

This Verizon Pixel 11 Pro deal is mainly about getting a heavily discounted flagship and then verifying carrier unlock after activation. The strongest upside is the low out of pocket price, with store pickup and immediate activation often leading to an unlocked phone that works with Google Fi, Mint, T Mobile, or other eSIMs. The main catch is Verizon's confusing unlock behavior, since some units stay locked for hours or days and the bootloader remains permanently locked. Cancellation usually needs chat or phone support, and full month bills or prorated charge adjustments can take follow up.

After unlocking, will the Pixel show a stupid Verizon logo when booting up, or will it not show one at all?
Can I trade in an old phone and get an additional discount on the purchase price? I think it is only a statement credit, so trade-in savings aren't an option.
Do Pixels ever show the Verizon logo? Mine doesn't, it's been years since I've had a Samsung phone, but I do recall those used to show the carrier logo during boot.

You should try to reboot etc sometime it takes a bit on the backend to send the signal to Google server.
I wish. But in my case the support told me there is a lock for sixty days. I don't know why. It says it's unlocked but definitely not true.

It's just too cumbersome to deal with Verizon.

What Happened with Pixel 11 and GrapheneOS
  • The Initial Warning: In late August 2026, GrapheneOS reported that the Pixel 11 lacked support for ARM Memory Tagging Extension (MTE), a core hardware security feature required by the operating system. The project briefly warned users against buying the device. [1, 2, 3, 4]
  • The Recent Discovery: New firmware analysis (such as Android 17 QPR2 Beta 4) showed that the Pixel 11 does actually include MTE hardware capabilities, but Google had it disabled or hidden in earlier software. [1, 2]
  • Current Status: Because the hardware supports MTE after all, the Pixel 11 is no longer a lost cause. However, GrapheneOS has not yet officially launched full support while they continue testing the hardware and firmware behavior. [1, 2]

Damn, no idea how some of you guys are getting the 600 offer. C1 had today's "top offer" for Verizon but it's still just 150.

May just bite the bullet though. tmobile has been driving their customers away with all the changes. Just yesterday they tacked on more fees per line. smh.

I will never buy a Verizon phone again. I don't know what they do to the boot loaders but I've had two of the same phones (one carrier neutral and one Verizon) and the Verizon phone took MUCH longer to boot. Plus they fill up your phone with bloat.

I do see $900 now for me. Does anyone know if we stack multiple lines to get the most of the cash back?
