All phones are subsidized by the carriers. So you will pay more for your phones across the board.

If there are no more ETF's, carriers will be forced to charge full price for handsets since the consumer will be able to leave at will.

there will still be etfs, they will just be regulated by the govt and not the carriers. there will always be a penalty for breaking a contract
