Has anyone else got an invite...trying it out? If so...thoughts so far?
Got an invite today for Project Fi and decided to give it a try. My Verizon contract ends at the end of August and this will give me a few months to decide if I want to renew it.
On average...I use about .75GB - 1.25GB of data each month. I mostly travel between work and home, where the phone connects to WiFi. With the exception of Google Maps Navigation here and there...I don't use much cellular data. I live in the Indianapolis area...where if you look at there coverage map...its all 4G.
I pay about $90 a month on Verizon and if I can get away with paying $30 to $40...that's a win to me as ill be saving $50-$60 a month.
The hangout's integration with SMS looks cool (send/receive texts from any device with Hangouts) and the free international texts and same data prices. I don't care if its not fast data internationally...last year when I went to Ireland...I couldn't even keep my phone radio's on...as Verizon was going to rape my bill with international charges. I would like to keep my radios on and connected in case of emergencies and not be charged up the ass.
Overall...I am pretty excited for this and hope it works out well/as advertised. We shall see with being an early adopter.
