As a Fi and Fiber user, those services have actually been really solid and reasonably priced.
Android wise, Calyx maintains a nice de-googled one (https://calyxos.org/install/ https://calyxos.org/install/ ) and they will sell you an unlocked phone at a reasonable price if you are a member. We use one on Google Fi with no issues in any of about 10 countries so far.
- easton_s 5y agoI like frictionless Fi is. Phone breaks? No prob. Grab a cheap Moto phone from the Fi store listing, get it in the mail the next day, and setup in 5 mins. Go over on data? No prob. Pay a prorated price at the exact same rate.
- reincarnate0x14 5y agoIt's been by far the best phone service I've ever dealt with, although to be fair that is a really low bar. The international pricing was what made me switch over, but everything else has been great since.
- m0zg 5y ago> Go over on data? Or you could be a T-Mobile subscriber and never "go over" on data, even when abroad. It just gets slower, but that's fine most of the time, at least for me. It's amazing to be able to use even slow internet in the butt crack of the world somewhere without paying an extra dime - that's the way it ought to be on all carriers.
- Dylan16807 5y agoFi has infinite free slow data too. "Going over" in a way that involves money is only relevant to the first few gigabytes on the $0-60 data plan. (Unlimited Plus is flat $50 of data)
- shaklee3 5y agoThat's literally any mvno. Try mint mobile for one far cheaper than fi.
