I need WiFi calling since I'm out of cell tower range, but I have good home WiFi.
But Mint does not seem to be very Wi-Fi calling friendly. I just got the (rather short) list of "Which phones are compatible with WiFi Talk & Text." Only one phone on that list is offered on Mint's selection of phones you can buy from them -- the LG K10. I don't need a real expensive phone, but I'd like 32MB and a better camera than the LG K10 has.
So I presume if I want Mint's service, I'll have to get a better phone from another vendor, and one that's on Mint's list of WiFi calling compatible phones. Most of those phones are fairly old models and they're pretty hard to find for sale NEW.
But here's a question: Of course, Mint requires the phone to be unlocked (and system compatible). But now I'm seeing new phones for sale that say they're unlocked, but they're also associated with AT&T or T-Mobile or some other outfit. So are those really unlocked and usable on Mint's system? If they're unlocked, why do they say they're a "Verizon" phone or whatever?
So I'm looking for a "Mint WiFi calling compatible" phone with 32GB, 12 or higher MP, somewhere in the neighborhood of $200. I hope I'm not dreaming. Any recommendations or suggestions?
