iPhone XR losing battery effectiveness.
Elected to keep Google Fi and get a 14 from Apple. $729
Shame on Apple: $30 for an unlocked phone. "Connectivity Discount" or whatever else you call it, it sucks.
Discounts:
$75 back for a future purchase: Gift card from Apple , black friday
3x $15 back from target for $100 apple gift cards. Only one card from online. The second kept saying Pending, until I cancelled it. Two more from the store.
Estimated $140 back for iPhone XR

Family got the hand me downs.
Google Fi unlimited seems ok for now (2, 3, 4 lines are now $80 +, currently called "Simply Unlimited"). We switch back to flexible for international trips. Switch is possible only in monthly increments, at the end of the billing cycle.
