I wanted some opinions on my wireless plan and phones.
I currently have the grandfathered unlimited 4g, 1400 minutes, and 1000 texts. I also have my daughter's basic phone on a second line. I am eligible for an upgrade right now and while I have wanted to leave Verizon they have the best coverage in my area. I wanted T-Mobile and tried a Nexus 4 but I had zero coverage in the house and wifi calling isn't an appealing option.
So it looks like Verizon is my only option right now. I have narrowed my upgrade choices to the the LG G2 and the Nexus 5. I would be very surprised to see if the Nexus 5 makes Verizon so the LG G2 seems the logical choice.
If I upgrade and use the current discount being offered I can get the G2 for $139.99 and another 2 year contract. I lose my unlimited but I rarely use more than 2GB of data per month. I gain unlimited minutes and texts which would be nice.
I contemplated selling my Verizon contract on eBay but the average price is probably around $200 for a contract. I will have the hassle of the AOL process and eBay fees so it doesn't seem likes its worth since I'm not a heavy data user.
Am I missing anything here? Any downside to going to the Share Everything plan based on my current use?
I think the LG G2 would be a good choice and I don't see anything on the Verizon horizon that makes more sense. My Galaxy Nexus is getting by with CyanogenMod but it's showing it's age especially in the battery & performance department.
I am huge lover of stock Android and I like CyanogenMod on my Nexus. I am hoping the developers get the bootloader unlocked because the G2 is a prime candidate for custom roms. That would make my user experience much better.
I could pass my Galaxy Nexus on to my daughter and upgrade her from her Samsung Brightside (very dumb phone).
Your thoughts?
