I hope I'm not going to be too wordy but here we go.....
My needs and possible phone usage.....
1. no music, no TV, no watching hockey games, etc.....no need
2. do not do social media, don't text
3. may never charge away from home, retired and would use the c max for any longer trips
4. probably will never use phone to charge, precondition, as with my c max energi, when I need a charge, I'll plug in
5. Ford told me I can register online for owners (did), BUT cannot activate online, must use smart phone.....without activation, I can't use free 250 kwh, or the 22000 ford pass reward points
6. fob as a key is fine with me, PaaK unnecessary.....
If I get a smart phone.....
1. 3 GB or 10 GB???....remember my needs are probably much less than most of you
2. what does android OS "O" mean???....."set up guide/brochure" says Android must be OS 5 or better, is it??
3. looking at Android because my son has that.....motorola ?, samsung ?, Zmax 10 (consumer cellular)????
4. looking at consumer cellular because they have multiple plans that seem to suit my current needs, post use billing, can pay by check (my preference), friends have very positive results with them,....
5. needs very basic, nothing fancy......would be like buying a riding lawn mower for a 50x100 property
6. am I asking for trouble??....seems like many of the issues being talked about here involve phone issues as well.....
If you are kind enough to respond, PLEASE keep it simple, haha.....someone in another post, was talking about the technology, phone and car, said he was knowledgeable, but (to paraphrase) he said "sometimes he felt like a 75 year old buying his 2nd computer", haha....well I'm not quite 75, and I've had more than 2 computers, haha......
this is certainly not a money issue, after all I just bought a $47000 car.....it just about what I need......no overkill.....thank you in advance......take care
