Google Fi + Moto G Power or Verizon (Total Wireless) + Moto e6?

217 117 December 31, 2020 at 06:50 AM Target
Need some advice on which cell carrier to switch to.

My options are Google Fi + Moto G Power for $50 [google.com] for the phone or

Total Wireless (on Verizon network) + Moto e6 for $30 [target.com] for the phone.

Anyone with previous experience with any of the above is encouraged to share.

Thx,

I've got a Moto X4 and I'm on Fi.
I *was* a Verizon customer (Had a Galaxy S5) and as such bought the X4 as it was multi-carrier compliant (and listed Verizon).

However...the X1-X3 phones all worked on Verizon with Post-Paid plans...and as billed, the X4 also worked on Verizon, but none of the local Verizon shops could get it added to my account. Finally it was determined that it only worked on PRE-Paid Verizon plans.
WTF???
A Co-worker was (and is) on Fi and sent me the referral link...we both got a $20 rebate on our bills after I was on for a month+.

Been happy with Fi ever since.

I did buy though the Play store Fi-Switch. This allows me to instigate a switch between carriers that are in my neck of the woods Sprint and T-Mobile. *Yes I know they merged and now are T-Mobile, but there are still 2 different physical networks.

My phone is not 5G rated, but when I do move up to 5G I'll most likely stay with Fi.

Bills average about 35 a month. Verizon was 70-80 /month.

i've used Fi for maybe 5 years and have been happy with it. just upgraded from the x4 to the G Power. it was hard not to for the price. have had the phone for a week or two now and enjoy it. only negative about the phone is the finger print reader is on the back. if the phone is on my desk, i have to pick it up now vs putting a finger on it to see messages.

have loved the service, works perfectly even for international travel.
