I just set up a Nexus 5 with GoPhone though it's for a flip-phone plan. I turned off Cellular Data before I put the Micro-SIM in. Everything is working as it should. I can do voice calls and text messages on AT&T's network and everything else is WiFI.

I believe that I could turn on cellular data but it's expensive (they charge by the KB). This is basically going to be a WiFi phone.

Is that the $35 plan?

Even though I have the $60 plan, the discount refill cards I get bring the price down a good bit. I have to buy a $50 and a $25 but the price of those equals what I would normally pay for my plan, $60. So I have $15 left over every month.

Might be worth the little extra to get data.
