New Alcatel Flip 3 or Smart Flip

Alcatel has come out with a new flip phone(Alcatel Flip 3 for T-Mobil and Smart Flip for AT&T) that will use Google Assistant to do voice texting. So far I see nothing like this for Verizon use. I live out in the country where Verizon is the only choice to get good reception, and currently have a Samsung Gusto 3, but 3G CDMA is ending at the end of 2020. If I buy one of these new phones that is locked for T-Mobile or AT&T, is there a way I could get it unlocked, and use it on the Verizon prepaid $30 unlimited talk, text, and 500MB data plan?

You will want to contact the carrier the device is locked to. If the device is unlocked, it will most likely be able to be used on Verizon Wireless. 

You are able to check the unlocked IMEI here:

Does Verizon have any plans to come out with their version of an Alcatel Flip that will use Google Assistant for voice to text?

So, are you are saying that if I purchase an Alcatel Go Flip 3 from the manufacturer, I'd be able to use it on the Verizon network?
