Personal Tech: Mobile switch: "How I canceled Verizon and cut my phone bill in half"..."After I made the last payment on a two-year Verizon device contract, I decided to take a closer look at my mobile bill. To my surprise, I discovered I was overpaying dramatically." Editor's note: in the U.S. there are "low switching costs" in changing mobile wireless carriers, thanks to government regulation.
Also note: new Google smartphones Pixel 3a (5.6-inch display), and 3a XL (6-inch display) rumored to launch May 7 (Google I/O?).. Both will have 4GB of memory, a Snapdragon 670 processor, a 12-megapixel rear camera, an 8-megapixel selfie camera, and 64GB of storage. Pricing is also rumored to start at $500 for the smaller of the two phones which is still too high, in my opinion, but do the phones have NFC and band 71? If the answer is "No," the phones are a non-starter for me.
