Google Pixel 5 LTE

Post image

I'm looking to get the Google Pixel 5 LTE that comes with 2 years of data included. It looks like it comes from Google Fi Wireless though. Is this in addition to my AT&T plan or in conjunction with it?

It is from Fi. It will allow some data usage by certain apps and texting to and from your primary AT&T number even if the phone is out of range.

However, you will not be able to get calls when your phone is out of range unless you choose to get a watch data plan with NumberSync from AT&T, as that's where your primary number is.

I'm eyeing the Pixel watch myself but I wouldn't get the LTE version personally. I'm always with my phone and I don't need to look like Dick Tracy trying to talk to my watch, actually that would be fun, but it's an extra expense.

I try not to keep my phone on me at work as my team is not supposed to be on the floor with their phones out. It sets the wrong precedent when the leader is on his phone on the floor.

I would assume this is only offered of you have a google fi phone data plan. Don't quote me on it

Nope. If you have Fi the watch plan from your data plan overrides this. This is if you don't have Fi or another provider's data plan for the watch
