SIM Questions

Anyone know if the SIM card in the HTC One M9 will work  in the iPhone 6s? Im considering getting an iPhone but would like to be able to fall back to my One M9 if needed.

Both use nano-SIM. You should be fine. Unless either of the phones are carrier-locked, you know.

Awesome. Thanks. It would both be from Verizon so i shouldn't have to worry about that.

If they're both on the same network, yes. The sim sizes might be different though. You'll need a converter kit if that's the case. But if you need to make your sim smaller, I can tell you from experience that you can follow a guide on how to cut your sim card with scissors.

Yes. I believe you can always keep your old phone no matter what as long as you're paying for it, or had paid for it.

Yep, they can't take your phone, all they can do is charge you full price if you stop paying for it. I'm still paying for my Note 4, but it's 100% mine forever.

yea

if you have the contract and decide to cancel it, you just have to pay the rest of the phone's price before you can leave them

 

but the phone is obviously yours 4ever

if you don't pay, they disable your calls/messages, they can't take your phone from you

You can totally do that always. Well Verizon kind of has a tight grip on their service. I know with my T-Mobile I can switch devices any time I need to.
