I know Virgin Mobile is CMDA network.. is it better than boost? . Is boost Mobile gsm? Can I use a boost simcard on ex. (Unlkd)NEXUS 4 or S3?..
 
Boost, just like Virgin is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sprint that runs on their CDMA network, there are no sim cards involved.
OB
 
They are both CDMA and are run by sprint which is CDMA as well obviously. These phones networks don't have Sims and the data is rather coded hard into the phone. It makes it inconvenient for traveling to different countries. :(
 
You can get a nexus 4 and activate a sim on tmobile, at&t, straight talk, simple mobile, and some other prepaid subsidiaries. The best plans are the 30 tmobile plan 100 unlimited text and unlimited data 5gb which is Web exclusive and the 45 unlimited straight talk plan. Just don't overuse the data or they'll knock you off.
