I have saved 400$ and I just broke my Alias phone and I am looking into getting a new phone, my contract is up, but I have insurance on my alias phone which will cost 50$ to replace the phone, I could also buy a more expensive phone instead of using my insurance, and get a phone like the LG ENVY2 or the Voyager. now something else comes into the story my parents could get me a new phone for christmas but I don't really want to wait 3 moths to get a new phone, or I could use my insurance and get my alias wait 3 months then get a new phone! its all really confusing.

I just got the env2 and its wonderful. If you text a lot its perfect. You probably need the phone now, just ask your parents if they want to chip in earlier for the phone but still consider it as part of your chirsmas gift. I wouldn't get a new alias and then get a new phone in 3 months, that's just wasteful
