2. The price is much cheaper than Verizon's price is there any particular reason?
3. Can I get this Q through the Sero plan?
Lastly can you please let me know how your experiences have been with Sprint and how the service is and anything else you would like to throw in!! Thanks in advance |
I just switched to Sprint from Verizon last week. I had the Q with Verizon and purchased the Q with Sprint. As far as coverage, I haven't noticed any drastic differences. I'm in the Dallas area and it appears that downloading pages on Verizon was ever so slightly faster, but not overly noticeable. I have 3 bars in my house with Sprint, had 3 with Verizon. And as said on other posts, Sprint has free roaming which includes data.
One annoying difference i'm noticing is the lack of MMS which is addressed in other threads. I still have not figured out how to set up my sprint pcs mail on my Q. From what i gather many are sending through that. I have Yahoo and my Verizon home emails set up but haven't figured out the sprint pm account. Any help would be appreciated.
Even with that slight problem, spending $90/mo with Sprint vs. $140/mo with Verizon for the same services I selected was a no brainer.
