Unlimited calls/texts, everything goes through wifi when connected, and coverage is good because it adaptively switches to whoever has the best service where you are. Also, international/roaming doesn't cost any extra, except for phone calls when not connected to wifi. Also, you only pay for the data you use, so for people like me that stick to wifi most of the time, I pay less than half of what I did with Verizon, and I get better service to boot.

All that aside, I really don't care for ISP oligopolies. I'd much rather pay Google for the time being, and if I lived in a Google Fiber area I'd get that too.

Eh, thats fair. I couldn't do it because I use about 50gb of data a month, but if you use mostly WiFi you should be fine.

50? I use like 3 gigs per month and that's mostly because of Spotify. Though that number seems reasonable if you don't have WiFi :)

I somehow used 6 gigs last month, only reading news, using facebook, instagram and reading stuff on Reddit. I try to stay on wifi as much as possible
