If you bought the global version, Yes. If it is a branded AT&T no.

Come to think of it, is there even a AT&T branded Pixel Pro?
If you buy it from AT&T, it's not unlockable until the SIM is unlocked after meeting their requirements.
oh i bought the global version. just hope i dont ever have to resort to att versions ever again. i still use their sim card however.

I have the VZW version, thus needed to unlock the bootloader with depixel8. I know that depixel8 will not work on 7.1.1 if currently locked. However, I would have you check to see if the Google version allows unlocking. I'm thinking the Google version is unlockable without the need to use depixel8...but please search around and check.

The EE model works the same as the Verizon model. You can not unlock the bootloader once it is on 7.1.1

Yes but since the EE model is not a Google one that means that I can't unlock it and I can't downgrade

Ok ok thank you for the fast reply, so it's more clever to not buy it
Is this problem just related to EE/Verizon phones? Will other mobile operators like O2 allow booltoader unlock, even on 7.1.1?
Sorry to somewhat hijack this thread but, my Pixel was sent from EE, however the cid is 11111111. Doesn't this mean it's not a "carrier phone" and that its bootloader can be unlocked?
p.s Does this mean a percentage of pixels sent out by EE are essentially carrier-free phones?
Edit: Never mind "OEM unlocking" is greyed out in Developer Options.
for 7.1.1 on ee inferno box/dongle thing seems to work, so its not impossible, just you currently need someone with the hw until a software fix comes out. that may or may not happen. i'm currently trying to find a way as my phone is EE and I have an old sim from '3' i still pay for which has unlimited data.... you can see why i want to unlock....(and its is unlimited, when i had no internet at home for a month i smashed 163gb over the sim....)

You said Verizon. If it is EE you contact them and they will SIM and bootloader unlock it. Assuming the contract has been fulfilled.
unfortunately, ee uk told me that the phone status is "stolen", i bought it from ebay i have to return it before buyer protection end

Oh dear . Me thinks you should be getting in touch with the cops and reporting the seller to ebay. Some poor sod needs their phone back.
I'm in USA and on Verizon. No matter how much digging on the forums I'm not sure I can ever be sure which exact version of the 8t would be the carrier unlocked international version with available bootloader unlock and root available. Hoping someone could provide with that info, thanks!
If you buy it directly from OP you should be good to go. Just make sure it's not been purchased through T-Mobile and hardware model KB2007.
KB2005

Why TMobile? Is there not an equilvalent, for example to my V30 that was a non-carrier branded unlocked international model? And Sykojoe mentioned the KB2005, which one is that? I'll admit I haven't even looked up yet.

I'm saying if you are NOT a T-Mobile customer, don't buy a phone that is locked to the T-Mobile network. You need to get them to SIM unlock it then you need to get a bootloader unlock token from OnePlus before you'll be able to flash any other ROMs.
KB2005 is the international version from OnePlus. That is the one you want to get. If the model number is KB2007 it's from T-Mobile.

Ok, yea I understand. The carrier unlocked (non-carrier) international one was the one i was looking for, thanks.
I'm resident in European Union, if it buys an T-Mobile OnePlus 8t can I unlock it ?
Does the phone work with a European sim card after did this ? : https://www.xda-developers.com/t-mobile-oneplus-8t-rebrand-without-bootloader-unlocking/

As stated in that article "This method will not provide you with a T-Mobile SIM unlock."
If you want it sim unlocked you need to contact T-Mobile.

Not that I know of, but you can read/ask here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/t-mobile-bootloader-unlock.4181339/
I would recommend buying a non locked version though. Especially if you live in the eu.

Yes, would suggest buying unlocked Tmob variant unless the post above can do it. But you cant be sure until you get your phone. So..

you wouldn't have bootloader unlock and therefore no root, you posted this in the wrong section BTW.

currently one service can't unlock the newer firmwares and the other is on hiatus, maybe for the same reason.

Hello friends,
Recently I moved to Canada, I have the international model, G781B, I was wondering if it is possible to flash the canadian variant. Reason: 5G didnt work so far, tryied everything to make it work, even manually configuration of Bell network.
Comparing at the gsmarena.com, the hardware looks like the same.
I'm almost giving up and buying a new phone.

Most likely your carries uses mmwave 5g network, and international S20 FE 5g uses the other spectrums for 5g. There is no way a software flfash can change anyting, and I do not think that you can even flash software for thw wrong phone model, as odin check the BL version prior to flashing
