[Q] Samsung Galaxy Note 2 price?

Hi everyone. I am looking to buy the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 or the HTC One Max. I want to see how much the Galaxy Note 2 was when it came out last year. How much was it unlocked when it released last year? Also how much was the HTC One unlocked when it came out earlier this year. I just want to know so I can get a rough estimate.

Sim Unlock

Hello Guys,
I just goy a new Galaxy S5 from my cousin in US and i need to sim unlock it.
is there any way yo do it free or any software that gets the job done?
If the phone is paid for, your cousin just needs to call Tmobile and ask for the unlock code. They will give it to him.

Is it true some S6 and S6 Edge variants lack MST / Support for Samsung Pay?

Hi everyone, I have a question I can't seem to find an answer to.
I have a Galaxy S6 Edge (SM-G925I), and one of the main reasons I bought it is because of the incoming release of Samsung Pay in Brazil, my country. But, our local Samsung branch claims the S6 and S6 Edge variants sold here lack support for MST, and consequently, Samsung Pay.
Compatibility
The Samsung Pay only works on some of Samsung's high-end smartphones, in addition to one or other intermediary. MST we have the Galaxy Note 5, Galaxy S6 Edge + and intermediate Galaxy A, in addition to the new S7 and S7 Edge. (Interestingly, the service was announced by the Galaxy S6, but Samsung says that the Brazilian version has no MST, only NFC.)

The S6 Edge+ (SM-G928G), Note 5 (SM-N920G) and A7 2016 (SM-A710M) supposedly support the feature fine.
My question is: is it true? Does the G920I and G925I really lack this functionality? Or is it some corporate BS to push their newest devices?
Is there any way I can tell if my phone supports MST?
Bump
I guess no one knows, due to the lack of answers?

Which of these devices is the most development-friendly?

Hi guys,
I'm thinking about getting a monthly plan from a local carrier. The plan offers your choice of a bunch of different phones. The phone I choose will be replacing my Samsung Galaxy J5 (2016 edition).
I will mostly use the phone for texting and Spotify, but I need the phone I choose to be as dev-friendly as possible. This means no locked (or very easily unlocked) bootloader, painless to install recovery like TWRP + root. Because after I root, of course I will be installing apps like Titanium Backup, Viper4Android, etc.
Here are the devices I can choose from the plan:
Sony Xperia XA Ultra
Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime
Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge
Samsung Galaxy A7 2017
Moto G3 Turbo
Moto Z LTE
Moto Z Play
LG Stylus 2
Huawei P9
Huawei Mate 8
Huaweii Y6 II LTE
Lenovo Phab 2
Now of course I can search and search the XDA forums to see how much support each model has, but I am hoping anyone who reads this thread 1: Owns one or more of the devices I listed, and 2: Has experience in rooting / modding them.
Thanks! <3
Edit: I realize that the carrier may or may not pre-lock the phones, but ignoring this, assuming I wanted to buy one of the above devices with cash and not on a carrier plan, which should I go for as far as dev-friendliness?
