Anyone get a new phone for Black Friday? Or a new phone recently?

My wife is on PagePlus, got her a new phone last week. Its LG Fiesta 2 lite. So far she likes it. Much faster than her 4 years old phone.

Might get the Samsung Galaxy J3 Luna Pro for the kid, now that it is $39.99.

Got a Samsung Galaxy S7 from Wal-Mart for $199. 5 minutes later I traded it in at T-Mobile for an S9 so I got an S9 for $199. I'm pretty happy about that!

My wife and I recently got iPhone XRs (mine 128GB and hers 64GB) in the Sprint BOGO promotion. I can't say I love Sprint but the phone is nice. Debated getting an XS Max but could not justify the additional cost.

Not yet; if there is another black friday like sale in the next 30 days on the phones I am considering I might bite now that google fi is less restrictive.

What made you get that?
Does not seem a popular line.
Small screen?
I needed a new phone right now but know I will be switching carriers in a couple of months, so I wanted to get something I could bring to Verizon with me but use on Sprint before I switch. Currently have an HTC 10 that only works on Sprint. Was kind of tired of paying insane prices for phones that seem to have issues or break, so I settled for a $250 X4. Its probably a downgrade in nearly every area, so I'm going to give it a go for a few days and return it if I don't like it.

What phone are you currently using?

Check fi.google.com - about a week ago they opened in it up to quite a few other phones including iphone and note 9 (iphone doesn't swtich between networks - not sure about note 9 but i presume it would if you install their software).

I thought Fi is only for Google-branded phones or phones participating in "Android One" program.

This place is dead, ain't it.
Where are you posting these days?

Samsung is offering up to $250 off their S9s, so I traded in my S7 and managed to get the S9+ for $20/mo for 2 yrs. The monthly payment would have been twice that through Verizon, so my bill will stay the same, and I managed to get them to eat their "upgrade fee." Thought about waiting for the S10, but even if it comes out in Feb., I couldn't pass up this deal.
