So I want to replace my iPhone 6 128GB backup phone (main phone is Note 8) and I'm thinking I'll buy a Pixel 2 to do so. I have a Verizon plan with various devices on it....Note 8, iPhone 6, Samsung Gear S3 Frontier, (2) Wi-Fi hotspots/Jetpacks.....I will want to replace the iPhone 6 that is at its end of contract and 'upgrade eligible'.
I need to decide...do I buy it from Google and get a SIM from VZW or may be take the SIM out of my iPhone 6?? Or do I buy the Pixel 2 from VZW? I believe the Pixel 2 will come unlocked from Google with an electronic Fi SIM in it...Can I just put a Verizon SIM in it?
I think I'd rather do that if it will keep the phone more bloatware uncluttered...if I buy from Verizon I have to wait for all their updates right??
Input appreciated....I use this second phone mostly for Waze and as a camera and the iPhone 6 has been just crippled with the new updates....I don't really see that it's worth the hassle or $29 of getting a new battery when the phone is outdated...Plan was to get an iPhone 8 may be, but there just wasn't enough reason...the iPhone X is bigger than I want for a second phone with the big Note 8 already....so do I buy the Pixel 2 from Google or from VZW??
