Deal Details
This is for the new Fi users. The sell ends on Nov 18th so it can't be combined with the black Friday coupon mentioned in
https://slickdeals.net/f/20281626-psa-sign-up-for-google-store-black-friday-promo-code-and-perhaps-signup-for-google-fi but it's still a good discount especially when you consider bill credits will also roll in for those 4 months.

Pixel 11 Pro: $599, Pixel 11 Pro XL: $799

0. Sign up with unmentionable RC. Choose the cheapest plan which typically is flexible , I think you will need to make sure to have a plan whose cost is more than device credits

1. Order the phone and when the phone comes set it up with the same Gmail address, download Fi app and the activate the service on the phone.

2. the Fi app, the billing and then in progress you will see a tracker which would look something like $500 off and what steps the completed. It will also show how many of 120 days are left.

5. Wait 24 hours from activation for that counter to go down by 1.

6. At this point you can delete Fi app and install your (e)SIM and start using this phone with it. I would suggest to just disable the Fi eSIM or make it secondary etc.

7. After 120 days, the whole in progress section will disappear but the bill credits would be in progress. You are good to cancel the line with Fi or pause it for the next deal.

This is very tempting. My S26 has just been ok. $395 trade-in for it makes this look REALLY good.

Yeah all Fi phones are factory unlocked and hence the appeal of this deal as you can start using it with your carriers from day 1.

Mint phones are not factory unlocked so you have wait for 60 days. Also you have to pay $180 on top while you are going to probably less than $20 on top of the phone price here.

So if I did the mint deal I can't add my Verizon eSIM and just dial sim for the whole year? I'd have to wait sixty days to add my next sim?

Yes. Mint phones are locked to their network. I think it gets automatically unlocked after 60 days.
