Will Lynch <time itemprop="datePublished" datetime="2017-06-09 16:41:15Z">6/9/2017 4:41 PM</time> Your "PhoneMore's Choice" is faulty. I compared XT1067 vs XT1609 and XT1609 vs XT1607 and the "preferred" choice was always the phone model on the right. I tested because I was shocked your recommendation would choose a phone model (XT1609) that was limited to one provider as opposed to one (XT1607) that worked on multiple providers.
