In January 2016 I will be traveling to Kochi, India for a week. I have questions about the best way to get service while I'm there.
I use a factory unlocked Nexus 6, so I'm free to use pretty much any carrier. I'm on Verizon, but I can grab a month of T-Mobile's Simple Choice service for while I'm there. I also have a Project Fi invite.
What are my options? From what I understand, T-Mobile's Simple Choice international program does include India, but data speed is low. Would Project Fi be throttled as well? I'm thinking I might be better off grabbing a prepaid SIM for the time I'm there?
Assuming I use an Indian carrier, what's the best one to use? As I said, I'll primarily be in the Kochi area. I do not need voice or SMS service. As long as I have data, I'll use Google Voice/Hangouts. I can forward my Verizon calls to my GV number. I'll want something with unlimited data, or at least quite a few GBs.
