   Unfortunately, I don't have an opinion on either of those phones, but   
   are you *sure* that her Verizon phone will no longer work after   
   December?  Verizon first announced that they are cutting 2/3G CDMA   
   services in December of 2019, and here we are 3 years later... also,   
   T-Mobile GSM 2G is still alive and "well".   
      
   When the Verizon notices first went out in 2019, my mother panicked,   
   and ditched my grandfather's 3G Verizon cell phone in favor of a newer   
   model; just a plain flip-phone.  Unfortunately, grandpap was   
   deteriorating mentally, and he wasn't able to grasp the use of the new   
   phone; he ended up getting rid of his mobile phone all together.   
   Meanwhile, the networks are still up and running.
