I guess it’s a new older one as it has Android 12, but it should be good for the two years I have to make payments on it. I got the phone from my cable company instead of the prepaid ones I have had. I just got WiFi from the cable company last summer.
This is what I’m busy with now, giving everyone my new phone number.
The phone is $10.41 a month plus tax, no big bucks.
$10 per month is great!
Thanks @LilyoftheValley
Google says Android 12 is the current release, so maybe it’s not a release behind like I thought. I thought Android 13 is the current release.
I should add it’s about $18 a month for the phone line in addition to the $10.41.
That’s a great deal.
Thanks. I’m getting the deal with a combo with my WiFi. I signed a one year contract though.
I don’t have any low cost plans to choose from in my area. I have stellar credit and still don’t qualify for a cheaper plan. That’s why I haven’t gotten a new phone in so long
Well my WiFi is $45 a month, but I’m getting the US government ACP credit for $30 a month based on.my income alone. You may want to see if the ACP credit is good for phone service. My understanding is that it is.
The $45 a month includes a streaming TV box that I use instead of the old cable TV channels box.
I’m glad you get that deal.
ACP = Affordable Connectivity Program from the US government where the government gives you $30
Yes I have 13, got it the day it was released.
What phone did you get?
The latest version of Android is available for Google Pixel phones cause they are both made by Google. I have a pixel phone which is why I have it already.
Other android phones usually have to wait a bit before they get the latest release.
Thanks @Headspark A Samsung Galaxy 13. I don’t think it’s the newest phone there is.
Do you mean the Samsung a13?
You will get Android 13, although you’ll probably have to wait a month or two
It may be an a13. They told me it would get Android 13 at the cable company. I was surprised that it only had Android 12 on it.
Your right. I just checked in Settings and it’s an A13
Yeah, the reason why you have to wait for android 13 is Samsung takes plain android from Google and customizes it for their phones. That customization process takes time. You’ll get it in a month or two.
Thanks @Headspark
I guess I am one of the few here to have a dumbphone. Only one crazy enough 
But the old technology of phones focused on convenient size and long battery time which I like. Phones today, even new ones have battery that lasts 2 days tops. I wish they would make a smart phone that was more like the old phones, that they had apps and a internet connection with crummy graphics that gave them a week long battery life. I would take the trade. I don’t really need photo and video stuff on phone. I got a seperate camera for that. The need to charge the phone almost every day is very annoying to me.
