Amazon is selling unlocked P7’s for $449. Combined with the flood of P7’s on Ebay, marketplace, etc, this would not be a good time to resell these.

Was just able to place an order for this today, 3/29 at about 12:30 p.m. Eastern

Interestingly, the AMEX offer gets triggered for the 2x amount. The AMEX offer is $15 off $115 two times. With this purchase well over $230 (2x$115) i was given the full $30 credit!

OOS again.

Credit Card Offers

Did anyone get biz wireless credit by prepaying using the wallet feature? the $10 monthly credit?

Yes I do this every month. It charges 10.50 due to some recovery credit.

Can you explain further? Can someone who signed up for this offer expect to pay an additional $10.50 monthly fee on top of the $289 + tax we already paid?

Ordered a 12 month unlimited on 3/23, checked order status today and it said “no information available” or some such. Never received a tracking number but did receive a email receipt immediately after purchase. Called today to inquire about status and first rep said the order was placed today. I reiterated I made a purchase last week and the call was “escalated.” After many minutes on hold, the new rep also said the order was placed today and to wait a couple days for the status to update. Not very encouraging….

As everyone else is saying, back in stock. I paid $330 for it shipped (289 + 18.50 recovery + 22 tax). I assume port in is when I receive the phone

Are you planning to resell or use it long term?

Resell marketplaces are flooded with P7s. RIP resellers.

I’m honestly not sure. I wasn’t planning on upgrading from my pixel 6a anytime soon after I did the $300 trade in for a pixel 4a. I mean if I did sell the pixel 6a and broke even, that means I traded in a 4a + $280 (ish) for a 7 which I don’t hate… but then also i just wanted 4a + $100 for a 6a lol. I looked at specs to see if there’s something I reaaaaaly want, like 90 hz or wireless charging enough to keep it and I might. I was gonna buy this regardless just for the phone plan and just break even on the 7 is fine with me.

I ain’t a scalper, I only buy with the intention of using. But I’m not susceptible to capitalism. Bought a Valve Index for intention of using it, sold it at a scalped price because it was insane. Bought it again later and had it for a year+. Bought a Steam Deck and could’ve sold it at a profit but it was worth that scalped price and I am still using it.

I think I’m deciding to keep the Pixel 7. Features that did it in order of weight would probably be: 90 Hz, HDR, aptX, glass camera+improved screen, all around improvements

Back in stock, ordered just now mainly for guaranteed security updates. Only a 7-day return window so have to check fast if I get a lemon that drops connection and calls. The Mint service offer is nice and I might even use it for data, but they are still vulnerable for sim-swap attacks so I am not planning to port my main phone number there.

Why is Mint Mobile more vulnerable to sim-swap attacks vs. AT&T, Verizon, etc…? Are you planning to resell after 6 months or keep as extra phone #?

We’ll see. I am mostly happy with my Pixel 3 after ~5 years. I am mainly worried about it not because the battery is getting old but because it is no longer updated to the latest Android. If this one holds up as well, I plan to keep it.

From what I read Mint is not getting its act together. Sim-swaps still happen with them and they do not care to train their reps better and/or provide a better security setup. T-mobile used to have that problem but they mostly fixed it a couple of years ago. No idea about ATT and others.

Website is super buggy, and my “failed” order ended up going through and causing a double order. It somehow exceeded my credit card limit to do so as well, which is a damn pain.
