AC Question

I want to buy a galaxy S6 edge plus and switch it to straight-talk but I don't know if this will work or what phone company to buy from. I want to know if it will be easier to buy it from Verizon since straight-talk runs off Verizon towers. or at&t of T-mobile I plan on buying it from best buy any help would be amazing. Thank you in advance.

Welcome to Android Central! Straight Talk uses both CDMA and GSM towers (not just Verizon). GSM phones (i.e., from AT&T or T-Mobile) tend to be easier to swap to other carriers, but pay close attention to the unlock policies. Unless you pay the entire retail cost of the phone, you won't be able to switch to Straight Talk until you've paid off the phone with the main carrier.
