Chris,
Welcome to the free market economy. In our ongoing move to fascism, where
the government is owned by private businesses. Our governmental agencies
that are responsible for standardization have allowed two different kinds
of cell phones to be sold, like AM and FM radio. So, if you go from AT&T to
T-Mobile or something similar, your phone won't work. I suspect that the
carriers like it that way because when you change carriers, they can sell
you a new phone, or lock you into an eternal lease.

I’m confused, Ken. Why did you have to get a new mobile phone on changing
your carrier?

I really wasn't too happy about having to replace my Samsung Note 3,
as it still probably has another year of life left in it. I've been
very happy with it, but we had to switch carriers. I liked the screen
size, a lot, and the battery life is exceptional. The new Motorola Z
Force Droid is actually a little longer than the Note 3, but a little
narrower. The Defender Otterbox made the Note 3 rather huge. I got the
Commuter Otterbox for the new phone and it's "just right". Because of
the Otterbox, the three year old Note 3 is in flawless physical
condition. Looks like the day it came out of the wrapper. But the
motion detectors are a little futzed out.
