Believe it or not I was happy with my personal phone being a flip phone with
a pre-paid one year plan. If work required me to have a smart phone, the
company would issue me one and i would noit install any non-business apps on
it.
Anyways, 3G is being dropped in my area and has been decreasing all around my
area. I was forced to upgrade. Tracfone had a special going on, and I got a
Samsung A11 for free after the discount.
