Kosher Phone - US edition

If my daughter's camp wants her to get a kosher phone, what does that mean? talk and text only?
Should I get a sprint $15 plan, or is there a better way?

Usually kosher for younger kids is talk only. If her camp is in the Catskills do not use Sprint, it might not work. Everyone who goes gets Verizon. There are places that sell such phones.

This is for Michigan.
Verizon offers for $30 a month.
Or maybe the sprint for $15?

A basic phone only has 3G.

Oh, not familiar with the service there

For a basic and kosher phone it's 3G.

You can get 4G basic phones, but for  certified kosher phones there's only 3G, AFAIK.

Correct. I wasn't talking about the LTE phones

My business Verizon rep is offering me this https://www.verizonwireless.com/basic-phones/sonim-xp5/ for $30 a month. I was thinking of getting in on the sprint $15 a month, but can't do that without a phone first, and sprint flip's seem hard to come by. And it seems that in rural areas Verizon is a safer bet.
thoughts?
