Another good reason to never ever buy Carrier Branded phones if you can afford not to.

Seeing you can use straight talk on any phone, why would anyone buy a carrier phone? I am using Verizon version of straight talk now. I had been using at&t, simply changed phones, got a different sim card, kept same phone number, now using Verizon towers🤣.

I started on straight talk, they do work on verizon yes, but when i used my buddies verizon phone i switched. on ST when i exceeded my data it drops to 2g, V only drops to 3g; on ST when on a phone call the data shuts off, on V i can surf and talk at the same time. Those are the two biggest reasons i switched, better customer service was another perk too.

I left Verizon because they were too expensive.
Loved the speed though. I'll bet a whole dollar they are first with real "5G".
