Around midnight on 2 days ago, I got a creepy email from AT&T stating that my new phones had shipped (I did not order anything). I passed it off as a phishing email, and went to sleep. the next day, a package showed up on my doorstep. Lo and Behold, a brand new Cingular flip phone had arrived. So I called AT&T to make sure I wasn't somehow getting scammed. It turned out to be totally legit. They sent it to replace my mother-in-law's flip-phone. They also had sent me a Samsung Galaxy S9 to replace my U12+.
Why? AT&T is shutting down their 3G network in Feb 2022. They are sending free replacements for customers using 3G-based phones. Much to my surprise, they said the U12+ is a 3G-based phone that happens to be compatible with 4G and their 4G-LTE network. They said it had to be replaced by Feb.
My question is, what would be a better replacement for my U12+ that I've grown to love, given that I don't like Samsungs? I had decided on Sony XPeria, but they don't sell them. I believe my choices are Samsung, Google Pixel, Sonim, and iPhone
Anyone know anything about Sonim? I've grown to love the microphone array and the camera on the U12+, and Samsung's bloatware and locked down settings makes me not want one. I had an S7 for 2 years and hated it. Just looking for input on a new U12+ device.
