These will never work, and even after VoLTE it probably won't. They're both missing Band 13 which is key to Verizon.

They want you to buy THEIR phones on THEIR network. They don't make money when you buy those phones at cost. Another reason why the terrible Gnex was over $500 when it launched on Verizon. I'm surprised Verizon is getting another Nexus, but then again, it's now $650 so the appeal of Nexus devices is gone. To some, not all. Hope you can find a replacement.
