Then you have to choose between Verizon and AT&T cell phones. The most important factor to consider is the coverage and cost. Coverage is needed if you want to keep in contact. Cost should also be cheaper that can fit your budget. You need to understand the pros and cons of both these companies before buying one for yourself. Verizon Tri Mode phones don’t come with a sim card. If for any reason your mobile stops working, then you cannot access the phone numbers that are stored in your mobile phone. But since AT&T is a GSM phone, they have a sim card in them. So, you can use the sim in other mobile to access your contacts information.

When it comes to using the voicemail, AT&T phones are more easy to use in accessing the voice mail by just entering the pass code. But with Verizon, there is a need for the pound key to be pressed and then followed by entering the pass code. The most annoying thing about Verizon is that there is no way to get rid of the announcement even though you have selected the personal greeting. You can skip the recorded announcement of the system to your personal greeting.

The signal strength of Verizon is also much better when compared to AT&T. But, the signal strength changes from an area to another area. As far as the mobile phones are concerned, Verizon has a good list of LG phones with them. Many phones are available in their online store. Though, tri-mode is not offered by LG. The billing scheme is also different between these companies, while AT&T bills you every month; Verizon bills you one month in advance.

Since iPhone is only available through AT&T, the craze for the iPhone has created a wave in AT&T by giving a big sale. Verizon gives exciting phones which offer to view mobile TV, but that can only be accessed by paying some fee. When comes to the customer service AT&T is still behind Verizon. Verizon’s offers the best customer service. There is a nationwide plan in AT&T which can be used for no roaming in more than 150 states. IN calling is a scheme that is offered by Verizon, which doesn’t work all the time. IN calling can be used for free mobile to mobile calling. The plans of both the networks are almost similar. There is a Night and weekend plan available in Verizon which gives you unlimited free minutes.

Both companies have their pros and cons like any other industry. Both have build up very good coverage of networks all over the country. Varieties of models are available from both of them excluding the iPhone which is only available with AT&T. Both are nearly having equal number of subscribers, Verizon Wireless has 65 million users while AT&T has 71 million users.
