Many cavers need to find ways to save money. I switched to MetroPCS last night. I would advise against this if you are a T-Mobile customer. Also, unless you need 4 phone lines, you are probably better off with Cricket. My initial impression after about 5 hours of use, is their LG K20Plus is a decent phone. It has some kind integrated Android Calling as long as the other person's phone has this feature. Meaning, if all 4 of your family members on the plan have this phone or one with that feature, then video calling should be a simple thing to do. My flagship LG G6 with same Android 7.0 does not have this video calling feature. I have been told my voice sounds clearer on the new cheaper phone. So I accomplished one objective out of 5. I had other reasons besides saving money. In our case, the MetroPCS store is inside a taqueria/Mexican grocery store just 5 miles from our house. My wife and mother-in-law can easily go there and discuss their phone issues with a live person that speaks Spanish. Meaning, I do not have to fix any problems they have with their phones. They would never go to the T-Mobile store on their own initiative ( which was 20 miles away, although we just got a new store about 7 miles away. ) In our case, 4 lines with unlimited everything, international calling and hotspot is $ 170 per month flat fee. That was about $ 50 cheaper than T-Mobile. Since MetroPCS only uses T-Mobile towers it is easy to imagine that the signal will be worse. T-Mobile owns MetroPCS. I should know by the end of the month how the quality of signal compares. I know T-Mobile sucks in our house and in rural areas near Houston.
