## Important:
This deal includes a **locked, eSIM-only Pixel 10, a new Mint Mobile line, and 12 consecutive months of service**. It is a phone-and-service bundle, not a collection of separate promotions that can be rearranged however you want.
The included eSIM must be activated **within 45 days of purchase**. You cannot store it indefinitely and activate it years later.
You may activate the included Mint eSIM on another compatible phone and use the new Mint number there. However, you **cannot use the 12 months to extend or "top off" an existing Mint plan while keeping your current Mint number**. This offer creates a new line unless you port in an eligible number from another carrier.
The Pixel itself must be activated on Mint before its 60-day unlock period begins. The safest option is to activate the eSIM on the Pixel and keep it active there for the full 60 days. If you activate the service only on another phone, the Pixel may remain locked because it never completed the required activation period.
For example, you should not expect to:
* Move your existing Mint number onto this promotion as a renewal
* Transfer the new number to an old phone or landline and still have the Pixel automatically unlock
* Divide the 12-month plan into twelve one-month plans and sell them separately
* Wait beyond the 45-day activation deadline
* Save the activation for years or decades
* Combine the deal with every other Mint discount, referral or promotion
If you move the eSIM away from the Pixel before it completes the unlock process, the phone may remain locked until it has been activated on Mint for the required period.
While locked, the Pixel should work with Mint and may also work with T-Mobile, although that is not guaranteed. It can also be used as a Wi-Fi-only device for Google Voice, other VoIP services, messaging, music, video, email and Android apps.
**Bottom line:** If you think there's some sneaky way to extend an existing Mint like, or immediately unlock the phone, or resell it for more then it might work - but it's not really part of this pretty good deal.

if I buy this deal I can use the Pixel 10 with my current Mint plan (swapping out my Pixel 8) and use my son's current Mint # with this unlimited plan? (or would I have to port his # out and then back in to this plan to be considered a new customer)

Maybe someone else has more information for you
My biggest worry was the lower data priority at T-Mobile, had to take that risk.

Most businesses offer better deals to attract new customers. Loyal customers are seen as cash cows to be milked.
If after staying 7 years, you feel you're getting nothing - why are you still staying?

No. Unlike cell service where there's roaming involved, GV works only over internet, so it doesn't get blocked. Google FI - the data service gets blocked if you're overseas for a prolonged period, but text and voice still continue.
Once you've got it, using anywhere over the internet (including prolonged international use) is permitted. Note that business usage or abuse (spam calling etc) will terminate the service; but if you're using it for personal purposes, and with the GV app or through a browser, there are no issues.
The "valid for US only" is from the point of view of getting it in the first place.
Now, if I was somewhere crowded like a concert or sports event, I suspect that's where you might notice lag or congestion since you are on a lower non-prioritized tier.
