Update on the earlier and deleted thread: I sold the 6P for way more than it is even worth. I have not only broken even with Verizon, but I got extra money to spare!!
For a quick summary: My parents are kicking me off their Verizon plan (finally). However since the Galaxy S7 they gave me wasn’t paid for, I now owe VZW $400. Now, the best solution would be to give them the finger, but I’m not ready to burn that bridge with my parents just yet.
For now, I’m using one of my project phones (a Droid Mini) until I make my next step. I plan on getting a new phone (an actual new phone, not used), though something not too expensive.
The Droid isn’t even that bad, just too small for me.
At the moment, the top of my list is a Moto X Pure :D
Also, fun fact!!! Because of my hobby that is rebuilding broken phones for fun, I’ve owned about 50 phones and tablets since 2011. ;) It’s cheaper than having a project car lol

Damn, that’s a shit ton. I’ve had 6. Three of them were cause I got drunk and broke them.

Have you thought of the LG V20Pro? It will most likely be my next phone...

How much did you get for it? I’m a little fed up with mine. I hate the build quality and battery life of this thing. Though the software is absolutely wonderful.

420. Average selling price right now is 350 though. And same here. The software was awesome, but the battery and the build quality were both pathetic for a flagship.

I basically pick each one up for about $50 - $200 on eBay, refurbish them, then sell them for just enough to break even and buy another phone to refurbish. It’s a weird hobby, but I love it!

Think I’ll be going with MetroPCS!

There’s a pro version of the V20? Hmmm, that wasn’t even on my radar.

It’s the first phone I’ve ever put a case one...
I love pure Android and quick updates though so I’ll probably have to wait for the next Pixel.

You should really look into the OnePlus 3T...I have the 3 and it’s goddamn amazing. It’s silky smooth.

Smaller version that V20, yes... Would be perfect for me, but after a quick check, it seems to be only available here in Japan...

Please post on how you like it. I haven’t shopped around much since I switched from Verizon to Straight Talk. It would be good to have your opinion as this seams like a market you are very interested in.
