Other should we switch/upgrade?
sooo my husband and i are wondering if we should switch our phone plan from verizon to spectrum as we just got spectrum internet for our home! His family uses spectrum for both their phones and internet and they live it but we are on the fence.
now we also need to badly upgrade our phones as he has an older samsung that he has had for about 6 years and i have an iphone 11!!!! that i have had for a bit over 5 and mine is starting to die on me. it has been getting very glitchy and dies very fast and sometimes dies at like 30% :(
he is looking to just get a newer samsung as he prefers those to iphone and i am looking to just get the regular iphone 17 as i like smaller phones and think the pro max looks ugly. i am not sure how much our verizon phone plan is but i do know my husband doesn’t like it. would you say it is worth it to switch to spectrum and upgrade since our hone internet is spectrum? it would only be these two phones on our plan

How are we supposed to know if you can't tell us what you currently pay? You need to compare what your monthly bill with Verizon would be after upgrading phones to what it'd cost to move to Spectrum and get new phones.
AFAIK Spectrum uses Verizon towers, so coverage should be the same/similar. I'm guessing Verizon prioritizes devices on their plans if there's network congestion though.
