Sim Card A-OK

I removed the sim card from my 2018 Samsung and put it into my newer Galaxy S10. It worked perfectly. I was concerned when "Verizon" popped up, but it really was unlocked, so I was able to connect to TracFone and use it as a phone. All of my contacts transferred, but that was all, which is fine.

Over the weekend, I tried using the phone more than my little Sony WX9 for stills and videos, and it worked fine. I'll have to read the 266-page manual and see what else it can do.

I thought this was funny. Before buying this S10, I read and watched several reviews. Not one reviewer mentioned the main feature - the phone! In the past, I remember reviews commenting on the sound of the speaker and the mic. I admit that I seldom use my cell phone as a phone.
