Phone contract is coming due.
I’m thinking about moving away from apple.
Pls talk me out of it. 👇🏽
Discussion
it’ll be annoying and time consuming and inconvenient
(but most worthwhile things are at first)
use mint mobile. BYOD whether ios or android
don’t listen to this conversation if you want to stay on apple or google
do listen to it if you don’t want to exchange your life data for convenience

I use a combination of silent.link for mobile data and US Mobile for calls and texts. It's very cheap, but you do need a dual sim phone that supports one esim and one physical sim.
Sounds promising
So far so good. US Mobile has an unlimited talk and text plan for just $8/mo and silent.link is prepaid with bitcoin and is billed at rates like $0.002/mb. Since I don't use a lot of mobile data, my balance runs down very slowly. I only started last month, but I predict that my average monthly cost will end up being less than $15-20 per month total. Maybe even closer to $10/mo if I'm frugal.

Do you need to buy a new phone?
