Beware of the poor reception!
I got this phone. It sounded great in the store. I got it home, and it got very little single in my house--anywhere in the house. I'd get maybe one bar, sometimes 2, with choppy calls, or calls that cut off after 30 seconds. Now with my LG 6100 and LG 5200, and Moto V60i, I never had a problem with reception in my house, even in the basement. With the Samsung, I get zero reception in the basement.
I took it back, and got the Moto 815, which doesn't look or sound as cool, but it gets much better reception anywhere in my house.

I got it Saturday and the reception works well for me. I just got back from Las Vegas and the reception worked well in the hotel even without any bar showing on the signals.

I hope it continues to work well for you! Maybe I just got a bad phone. I really did like everything about it, except that reception problem. But, like I said, it worked great in the store parking lot after I bought it, and even when I returned it. It's was just in my home where I didn't get much signal, and couldn't make decent calls. In 6 years, this is the first phone from Verizon that didn't work well inside my house.
Let's hope it was just a faulty phone, and not a widespread problem with this phone.

Your other 3 phones were Tri-Mode phones. You probably need Tri-Mode in your area
