You can keep your number when switching networks.
I'm not switching, I'm cutting the phone entierly, no point in spending $100 a month to pay for spyware in my pocket as they keep taking features I want out and shoving more AI I don't into them all while destroyihng encryption and extending the data collection and sales.
You should try GrapheneOS. It has none of that bullshit, and you don't need to pay $100 per month if you use a cheaper sub brand like Visible or Mint instead of main Verizon/T-Mobile.
If I could get it on payments like they do Googlified ones I would, can't afford to drop the cash for a Pixel to flash, or to order one with Graphene on it already.
Already on Lineage for the old tablet, and it mostly works, though they don't sandbox Play Services like Graphene does so I just don't have them on there.
You can get a Pixel on credit from the Google store website and those models are unlocked.
Synchrony handles the "Google Credit" and the other options are Klarna (which is four payments of just over $100 even for a 128GB Pixel 10a) and PayPal, so no, I can not get a Pixel on credit from Google.
