I replaced my Samsung Galaxy Note (that is V1) back in February with a Note 10 Lite which I am very pleased with, it was less than half the price of the “regular” Note 10. I see they have just announced new models so you might get a good price on the 10s being last year’s models. I purchase my phone rather than include it in my plan which is about $20 per month in the UK. That includes free call and data and I never go near the limits on either. I had my old phone 8 or 9 years, I replace it because of problems saving data on it, the phone itself still worked

Mint Mobile has roaming in Canada and Mexico included at no cost. $15/mo unlimited Talk and Text and 3g of data, more data it goes up to $20 or 25/mo. Best deal is if you pay for the year.
If I was changing carriers that is who I"d go with.

Consumer Cellular.....
check out their website for pricing.....and phone options/warranties... no contract ever.... no overages..... for me it ended being 1/3 the cost of Verizon for the exact plan that I had.... 30 day free trial, no cost.... the warranty has upgraded my phone several times, has not cost me a dime since I bought the first phone around 2005 |

I had Mint mobile and hated it. Service was terrible and the internet was slow. I switched over to AT&T prepaid and have been very happy. Best deal I found was paying for a 12 month plan in advance. For $300/year ($25/month), you get unlimited talk and text and 8 gb of data a month. I'd had my current plan for nearly a year and plan to renew again as the service is excellent.

Mint buys space from T mobile, so if TM i good in your area Mint will be good. I have relatives that use Mint and they are quite happy. I'm on a group rate with T Mobile @ $20/m so I'm happy. |

First off cellular carriers are regional on both availability and coverage so take recommendations with a grain of that salt.
I have been with the carrier that is now T-Mobile since 1998 (originally it was Aerial then Voicestream). They were always strong here in Minneapolis so I've always been pleased with coverage. Never once have I had any issue with billing or customer service. I have been paying ~$50 a month for unlimited voice/text and 4Gb data. This is a contract-less plan so there are no games. I just saw they are offering 55+ plans now that start at $35 & 45 dollars supposedly with taxes and fees INCLUDED. The $45 plan goes to 20Gb data for those that wish to maybe do away with a permanent home connection. |

Concur about the T-Mobile 55+ plan---has been a good choice for the 1 1/2 years we've had it. We're not quite as happy with the rural coverage as you are, but it's acceptable to us; and the ability to use it in Canada is the big counterpoint for us (obviously not now)...we took a trip throughout NS and PEI last fall without a care in the world.

I'm a bit late to respond but right now AT&T prepaid is the best prepaid offering out there. Their top plan - Unlimited Plus is $50 with autopay discount. As for phones the 2020 iPhone SE is a really good value at $400. |
