I'm currently using a Samsung Core^hhh Prime phone on Verizon. It's nothing to brag about, but it suits my needs. I really only use chrome, gmail, phone, sms, & gmaps in that order. Once in a blue moon, I use the camera to document something. What I DON'T need is all the crapware from verizon & samsung. I'm considering rooting the phone or just buying a rooted verizon phone from Amazon.
