Will the note 9 be eligible for activation?

[neosiris]

Samsung will be announcing the note 9 next month, and it would be awesome if we could activate the unlocked version with Boost's services. Given the recent history of unlocked samsung devices that could be activated, I would say that it will be possible to activate it.

Hello everybody at boost :D! Here you have me again with an update on the note 9 eligibility situation... So apparently you can now reserve the unlocked version of the phone over in (https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/reserve/)
Do you guys have an update as to whether it is eligible to use with your service? Given what we've seen with samsung's latest phones (including the unlocked note 😎 I would say yes, it's possible, but I wanna make sure before I reserve the device!
Thank you and any update would be appreciated 😄

SOOOOOOOO!! I spoke to a Samsung representative regarding the note 9 activation limitations. And he told me that the device could be activated with every carrier and technology worldwide, the same way the s9 and note 8 were. So I just wanna make sure with you guys that I could swap to the note 9 before I preorder it

Hi again, @neosiris This device isn't in the list of compatible devices for the Bring Your Own Device program, so we suggest you refrain from making any purchase until further notice.

Oh no, so basically you guys only have to work some backend stuff right? because essentially the phone can be activated anywhere. Well, I hope you get an answer soon about that because I would love to get the preorder goodies.
