Looking to switch from Galaxy Note 3 to something with a keyboard - and CDMA
Howdy! Just saw a Key2 LE at Walmart. I am IN LOVE with the form factor that includes - what seems to be - a genuinely usable hardware keyboard. I've been dreaming of getting a proper smartphone with a hardware keyboard for a long time, and now the prices are starting to come down AND I'm in need of a new phone soon. but here's the scoop:
I'm looking for a phone that is at least comparable to the Galaxy Note 3 in terms of performance
Needs to run on the CDMA network (Live out in the sticks, GSM-only phones are completely useless)
Must be unlockable or whatever so I can use a prepaid plan on it (Currently with US Cellular, may switch to Verizon)
I'd strongly LIKE to have a phone that has a hardware keyboard
And I'd strongly LIKE a phone that has a removable battery.
The Key2 looks like the closest thing I've found. I understand when it was released, it did NOT have a CDMA option, but now it's compatible with Verizon. I also understand the battery is not removable.
IS there a key2 that runs on CDMA? And if not, is there an older BlackBerry phone that meets these requirements?
If not, I'll probably go with an LG G6 or something.
