I'm still on the grand ole Samsung S5. I just can't justify spending even $400 on a new phone. Spending the outrageous default of $800+ on a new S9 or S10 or whatever the fuck's out now is just out of the question. I'm just paw paw like dat. I switched to Verizon a few years ago to cut my bill down. Pretty happy with their service, but I mainly need data and not really cell coverage.

I've been on Google Fi for 3 years now and really like it. Got my wife, dad, and myself on the "plan". Wife and I have new Pixel 3a's after our Moto X4's just didn't want to work anymore. LOVE the Pixel 3a. Takes good photos, snappy, great hardware, solid battery life.

What do you NEED UNLIMITED data for? Stay on WiFi at work and home, and then what's data for?

Yep.
I usually use 1-2gb of data per month, but like 30gb overall all on WiFi. routine <$40/mo phone bills, ~$70 for two is really addictive.

ALSO, you can add free data-only sim cards for tablets or whatever. Just pay for the data you use with zero other fees.

If you need to pron without WiFi, you have larger issues to address.

Im tired of being fucking throttled on ping times because we used all our high speed. I can deal with slow (since my use is mostly text and web images) but 20 second ping times are retarded.Detroit wrote: ↑Fri Jun 07, 2019 3:24 pmiPhone works on Google Fi, but you don't get WiFi calling IIRC.Big Brain Bradley wrote: ↑Fri Jun 07, 2019 3:20 pm

The data is free after 12 GB, $120. It's $15 for the first line/mo then $10 for the second. The most you will EVER pay for Fi for 2 lines is $145.Big Brain Bradley wrote: ↑Fri Jun 07, 2019 3:55 pmsprint and tmoble dont say they throttle till 50gbtroyguitar wrote: ↑Fri Jun 07, 2019 3:21 pm I don't think anyone has a truly unlimited plan for any reasonable amount of money.

I'd be if you both routinely use more than 12gb combined if you're just using text and images. You won't be throttled until you hit that 12gb. Anything you use under that isn't charged for.

ah i see. 145 then, but I'd still need a new phone. for about the same price the wife and i can rock three lines, roll with brand new iphone xr's, and recoup some of the 260 fucking dollars i just spent to pay off her phone by selling it.Detroit wrote: ↑Fri Jun 07, 2019 3:59 pmThe data is free after 12 GB, $120.

Google offered me 0% financing on the phones. The money in my Ally savings account is making 2.2% right night now, turning down 0% to pay cash would be losing me money.
