Same phone as the Sprint Hero. So your saving $70 on the phone, but pretty much losing $80 a month on the carrier. How might you ask? Theres no way Sprint offers comparable plans that much cheaper you say? Let me break it down for you.
Verizon's Premium Unlimited plan offers unlimited text & data as well as unlimited minutes. That's great, but it's a CEO like $139.99 a month.
Sprint's EPRP gives you the same unlimted text & data with 450 land-line minutes which nobody uses anymore and unlimited calls to any cell phone on any carrier, essentially giving you unlimited minutes. And they do it for the good Christian price of $59.99
139.99 - 59.99 ------------- 80.00 In Savings
And if you one of the few neanderthal's that still call land-lines all the time then bump it up $20 and go for the 1000 minutes, still saving you $60 a month.
If your worried about Sprints coverage don't fret. In Moderate to heavy populated area's Sprint will roam on Verizon's towers. And their 3G is on par with Verizon's Coverage and Performance. Don't believe me? Just check out this handy dandy Comparison that PC world cooked up for us. http://www.pcworld.com/zoom?id=167391&page=1&zoomIdx=1
This is not a slam Verizon add, as I do think they are the best carrier out there. I'm just trying to educate people in a way that will save them $1840 over the life of a contract (difference in phone price included)
If you have Bentley money then by all means go with the Bentley. (Verizon)
But if your like me and have Used VW Passat money, and want the savings to slap a Supercharger on it then Go with Sprint.
