Solved! AT&T prepaid

[brod298]

Hi there,
I have AT&T Zenphone 2 that won't be supported from February 2022 as it is G3 . I need new cell phone 4G, HD-voice and I don't know what to buy. I would like smart phone, mostly because of cameras but I am using phone mostly for emergencies so sometimes only 1-2 times a month. I have prepaid plan, 25cents a minute and I am good with that. Buying minutes each year, adding $100 each time so I have almost $400 on it. Lately, AT&T just renew my minutes without asking me to add more money
Now I have to buy new phone and I don't want anything fancy and expensive . Keep in mind I am 70 years old and know little or nothing about cells phone in general. I still use my landline when needed, even that is not too often.
I would appreciate any advice and suggestion.
Thank you so much !

Why "I have to buy"? I'm a few years older than you and I've managed to keep the mobiles I bought seven years ago.

If it works, keep it.

It works for now. Cannot keep it as it won't work from February 2022 because AT&T is shutting down their 3G network. They do have a list of the phones that are approved but there are many.

Motorola G models are good, as are the Samsung A models (A12 for example), Nokia G10 is another option.
