Switch

So i got suckered into getting a new iphone by my family after being a lifelong android user, long story short I absolutely hate iOS and this phone. It’s definitely too late to make a return, but still in great physical condition. Not paid off, how do I switch back to Android without paying extortionate amounts of money to Verizon?

    I was in the same position almost a few years ago. I sold the iPhone on ebay and bought an S21 for cash and kept the contract sim.

    And once you do… Stay strong! I almost missed a huge fuggin family event of like 35 people. It’s just me with Android haha! Luckily a cousin noticed I wasn’t replying. Damn… I actually really hate family group messages now that I think about it.

    Had the first iPhone ever, then switched to Android after that so I’ve been on the dark side for a while. Fixes screens on them until #4 on the side and just hated everything about them. I like to tinker and optimize.

    If it’s an iPhone from the 15 lineup you can sell it for almost close to what it cost. Plus they’re still in high demand, especially the pro models. Use the money to pay in full an Android.

    This is so relatable for me. I got an iPhone 15 Pro because my girlfriend and family all use it. Mine is paid off but damn I miss my S21 Ultra so badly. Going to take an L and sell this crap once the S24 Ultra comes out.

    🤣🤣🤣🤣 well, here’s the thing. You don’t. You suffer with that decision until you pay off a big chunk of it, then you come back to android. I can say this with laughter because a similar thing happened to me
