Well tired of Sprint and their games. Not over the 20 or 26 gb of data limit before they throttle your data speeds, but always keep getting less than the minimum data speeds of 6-10 mgbps on the LTE. I've been getting like less than 1.5 mgbps. So after several non helpful support messages later to sprint, I am dumping their asses and going to Verizon(consumer reports is Verizon is #1 and Sprint is #5)

 

But before i go and lock myself with a phone I need an input from folks on which one to get. 2 I researched on consumer reporting sites that i saw in the top 2 was the iPhone 7-7s and the Samsung Galaxy S8.

Wish i could of made a poll via mobile

I have an iPhone 7, great phone for me. Samsung S8 seems to be prone to screen breakage. Have 2 friends with an S8 with broken screens

@YACCster i have the IPhone 6 already but cant have it switched to Verizon since its locked to Sprint. I looked at the iPhone 7 but wasnt much a fan of it but been hearing the S8 is top notch this year, usually i use an otterbox case immediately when i get a new phone. Not worried on screen breakage since I never face the screen outwards when i put it in my pocket.

Buy an unlock code on ebay. I have done that before and it works. Or take it into a repair cell phone store and they will unlock it for you. It is not that expensive. I paid $25.00 for my code.

I would check with them again about unlocking. iphone 6 is eligible. So long as your contract was up it should be ok.

My current phone is a very old nokia flip-phone. And I mean old, not the high-tech version of old where things go obsolete in 2 years. Before there was such a thing as 'G'. Just never had a reason to spend the money for an upgrade.

On a more serious note, I recently updated to a Galaxy S8 and am very happy with it.

Of course I use it mostly for email, facebook, grab a few pics now and again and have some fire department apps (CAD and Scanner) installed on it.

My Galaxy S5 was perfectly fine other than it would no longer hold a charge.

All the iPhone bashers in here...  The funny thing that most people fail to take note of is when you see the response from people that have iPhones, and like them, is that their post doesn't read "I have the iPhone 6 but am dying to get my hands on the 7!  My point is that most iPhone devotees don't feel the need to upgrade every year or two, we are happy with our phones and only feel the need to upgrade when we break them.

Your unlocking the phone. The sim chip belongs to Sprint. You can put any sim chip into any unlocked phone. If your phone breaks you can replace the phone and put your sim chip in it and it will work. At least that is what I understand.

Which seems to happen a lot. My son cant keep his screens from cracking, I've never cracked a screen on an Android phone....
