[QUOTE="Jessie, post: 2677622, member: 224691"] Alright Guys, so im in a bit of a pickle here. By the end of the Month i will have a chance to choose a new network carrier for myself and my family for the next two years! and I've narrowed it down to Sprint or T-Mobile, because the other two are way too expensive. Now for comparisons... (First I'd like to note... With either company i'll go to, I would pay $180 before tax for 4 lines. That much is true and decided for.) Sprint (Everything Plus Referral Program): Pros: - 1600 minutes, with nights start at 7 pm. - Free mobile to mobile on *any* carrier (which is whats going to keep us from ever reaching 1600 minutes) - We already have 4 Sprint phones that we can use (So no need buy new phones and save our Upgrades for a later time) - I've had Sprint before and i like the coverage in my area - Unlimited Data - LTE to come sooner than T-Mobile - Google Voice Integration (which i use alot) Cons: - Data is HORRIBLE in my area. It's just really un-reliable one day i'll get .3 mbps, and other days 1.4 mbps - Phone Selections is pretty bad. Also, i like Windows Phone and it seems like Sprint doesn't... - Who knows When LTE will come since LightSquared deal is gonna most likely fail T-Mobile (Classic 1000 w/Data) Pros: - HSPA+ plenty fast for me and requires no extra antennae (battery-friendly) - Able to buy unlocked phones and swap easily - Usually more/better phone Selection compared to Sprint - Wifi Calling - LTE to come - Decent coverage in my area Cons: - only 1000 minutes with nights starting at 9, and mobile-to-mobile to T-Mo. only - Not Unlimited. The plan i have in mind will have two phones with 5GB, and two with 2GB, then throttling - LTE to come much later - We would all have to buy phones now (as opposed to if we went with Sprint with the phones we already have) - Seems to be loosing more and more High End Phone Exclusives ...And thats all i can think of for now. So what do you guys think? :) [/QUOTE]
