Data plan for waze and google maps only

[Jerseysteve]

Hi - I would like to use a cheap android phone as a gps - I only need data for waze or google maps and occasionally to look at an email. Obviously I do not need 4g and throttled data should be fine. Was are the best options? Are there any cheap options with unlimited 3g (I assume that is enough)?

Project Fi data only sim

Project fi is too expensive.  Either freedom pop free or t-mobile $10 line.

Does freedom pop free have enough data? The best would be if they give unlimited slow speed after you use up your data allotment

I have project fi - it is currently frozen - if I use it then I need to pay the monthly fee.-
I use verizon on my main line ($30 prepaid unlimited for dumb phone).

Can you have a  data only sim without paying for phone line?

You realize that Project Fi would be $20 for unlimited minutes and texts?
Unless you stick to Verizon for quality/coverage

Does mad surfing give unlimited data? it seems like only 6gb but on SD they claim you will not get overages unless you tether.

I don't know, but I'm pretty sure it's more than enough for Waze and email.

really depends on what your email contains. 700 plan text emails or 30 with large attachments. Really depends on the person.

Wase uses nothing at all, so dont even count more that 30MB (max 150MB) per month.

and
really depends on
-from the navigation distance (more "map tiles" need to download)
-the route were uses earlier (it is cached or not)
-the territory that You drive trough ("more domesticated are = more data usage")

Fi sim card works perfectly fine in a GSM dumb phone

Freedompop should be your best option.  It's free.
