I plan for a new phone this year, but it is going to be the iPhone SE. I need iOS and I need small.
I switched back to iPhone with the SE since going to android after my 3GS. I love it and I am back on the iPhone train. My biggest reason for switching is being on a older phone and on Verizon it was 6-12 months before a major update would be ready for me to download. As of a few weeks ago I was still on Lolipop, when N is in beta.

yeah, I've been looking. I really want the next version of the Nexux, the current one is already to old to want.
I'm still on a Nexus 5. You shush
Actually paying for phones kinda sucks if you want the latest/greatest. That's the only think that might be considered not great by Americans about the mvno I use, Ting (That's my referral link, fyi.)What do you average for payments with them? I get concerned I'm going to go nuts and spend a ton of money hah.

My maximum was $35, I average $27, and last months was $25.68. Staying on WiFi and my personal VPN really keep me off the heavy data usage.

I might do that. We have Straight Talk right now. It's $45 and 5 GB data. But I never use that much.

I'm on Republic Wireless right now. Great service, and Wifi calling. My bill averages $15 a month or so.

None of the Nexus phones are on this list. Makes me kind of think they were compensated somehow.

The Nexus 6P and 5 are both there. You don't even have to buy a phone from them, just a SIM card.

If I had not broken the glass I'd still use it, it's a really solid piece of kit.

If the phone & touchscreen still work... why not keep it around, lol.

Mine is 2 years old now, which means the battery needs replaced, and it's been dropped a number of times. So sometime soon I need to pop the glass, replace the battery, and make sure all the connections are solid. It's been a trooper for sure.

I have a note 4 right now and am curious what the Note 6 (or probably named 7) will feature for sure. Lots of leaks and rumors. Most likely will be my next phone.

@scottalanmiller Why do you "need" iOS?
