Any reason to buy the verizon pixel over the Fi pixel?
« on: August 10, 2020, 10:11:27 AM »
I have the Pixel 3 now and am considering upgrading to the 4a. I bought mine through Google Fi and use it with verizon. I liked that I was able to switch to Fi with just a few taps when I was traveling.

My question is- is there any reason to buy the verizon version? As a verizon customer, is there anything I will get that I won't get if I buy the Fi version?

TIA

The fi is better in that it doesn't have uninstallable Verizon bloatware. Verizon is better if having NFL preinstalled and will work over WiFi easier.

Thanks for that.

I don't care too much for NFL honestly, don't use my phone for that sort of stuff.

What do you mean that it will work over wifi better? also, is visual voicemail only an option on verizon phone? or can that be don on pixel phone as well.

thanks

I have no experience with the pixel, you sure you can't swap the firmware?
