Never been a nexus fan but it's worth it checking out now. Only bad thing is it does not have expandable memory it's either 16gb or 32 available. I could actually buy one now if I wanted.
So say I go with the tmobile pre paid plan for $30 bucks. I already have Google voice number that is forwarded to my current phone number. If I port my number to tmobile and then set my company forwarding to the Google voice number will it still go through t mobile voice calls?
but won't work on verizon...
I believe that HTC Droid DNA is GSM sim unlocked, dunno about 3G/4G/LTE-compatibility... if you don't mind, buy a StraightTalk sim / t-mobile prepaid sim, test out the service for a month or so (will cost you $30-$45)
I have the exact same plan, & while I feel like I pay alot, too, I use LOTS of data. If I was to go with t-mobile, I would still pay almost 80 per month for the same plan(but unlimited talk on TM).
Not going to leave my unlimited awesome coverage lte.
If you went to T-mobile you'd pay 70 flat... or you If I was the original poster I'd go with 60 plan. This is what I did two months ago. I switched from verizon with unlimited data and went to Tmobile. Let me tell you tmobile data is faster than my verizon data was (probably because verizon was so oversubscribed).
OP has unlimited data on verizon. He can't get a subsidized phone if he keeps unlimited data.
If he has to buy a full priced phone on this plan, then buying a full priced phone that works on t-mobile, and get a cheaper plan on T-mobile might be worth it
what I'm saying is if he stays on VZW (and keep paying $80/mo.) he doesn't need to pay $600 for a new phone switching to TMobile. Can't use that DNA on TMobile. So by committing himself to pay for a new phone with TMobile $25 x 24 months (their way of subsidizing the phone), he's not saving anything until after 2 years. And by then the phone isn't even the latest the greatest. Even the very common and "not exactly new" Galaxy S4 is $600 right now.
I don't know whereabouts you live in Philly but near where I live(around Philly International Airport), building penetration with T-Mobile is terrible. Verizon seems to be the best in the area, followed closely by ATT.
BTW, I'm on ATT.
The Verizon S4 will get LTE on T-Mobile but not AT&T's BS Band 17. It will get HSPA+ on AT&T though.I was reading a thread on xda where people with Verizon s4's use straight talk with the att SIM cards they bought from ST, set up the proper apn configurations and were able to get 4g LTE speeds or hspa+ and the speeds seemed pretty good.

Get a MDK version if you can.
I'd stay on Verizon. We are using more and more data, that is not going to change. Unlimited Verizon LTE is going to be like gold going down the road. I'll keep mine until they take it away. My contract ran out in October and I'll gladly pay retail/buy used.
Pretty sure the VZ One doesn't have AWS.I may just get the htc one instead of the galaxy s4. Although it would feel weird going from my DNA to that since the one is a bit smaller.
LOL, this ain't a WP feature. It's not only on every T-Mo Android, it's on every T-Mo ROM for Android, including some you can flash to VZ devices.if you go with Tmobile...some windows phones on Tmobile, I know the NOkia 520 has it, have a feature called "wifi calling". Exactly like it sounds.
