Does anyone use Google Fi currently and can speak to the quality of the service? How does it perform while traveling, does it become spotty if you leave a major metro area, do you experience dropped calls, any data throttling?
$30/each for two lines might get me to switch. $45/each for our two is close enough to what T-mobile costs us (nearly identical after the taxes get added on, I bet) that it's not worth the effort to change it.
I think the headline is decieving. Unlimited data for $30 assumes you have three lines open. One line is $60 for unlimited data.
$90 for a pair of two.
$60 solo

Every bit as valid as the misleading headline on this post.

The plans are a bit expensive and I don't like how when you run out of unlimted data it becomes unusabley throttled for even basic browsing.
This new plan is a complete disappointment because I was often torn between the $20 + $10/GB (too expensive per GB IMO) and the $70 for 22GB 'unlimited'. Now they offer $60 for 22GB but no tethering. I'd rather have the old unlimited still and I was tired of guessing which months I'd have little data use so I could switch to a cheaper plan. Many times I guessed wrong and paid $80. Other months I picked unlimited and used only 1.5GB.
I like Fi. I like how easy it is to manage via the app. Changing plans is easy, e-sim is great. I think i'm switching to visible or mint though after a few years of Fi. $10/GB doesn't make sense and $70 unlimited is just a bit too uncompetitive despite Fi being a nice provider otherwise.

family member uses it. i can remember 2-3 times in the past year where SMS failed - random delivery order and time, for ~an hour at a time. i cant remeber that happening with non-google SMS... ever.
$30/each for at least three lines . At two lines, it's $45/each, and at one, $60/each. $30/each for two lines might get me to switch. $45/each for our two is close enough to what T-mobile costs us (nearly identical after the taxes get added on, I bet) that it's not worth the effort to change it.
