Thank you - any and all input is welcome. I'm in the US (NJ) - currently an AT&T subscriber, and we have the same pricing structure here (until a couple of years ago, you would buy the device at a reduced price as long as you contracted with the carrier for 2 years.  The phone was yours at the start.  Now it's the same as your plan - you 'subscribe' to the phone for maybe $20 or so per month and after 2 years it's yours.  My phone is the Samsung Galaxy J7, which was the cheapest phone on their list ($7 per month).  Since I'm on permanent disability  I have to be careful about cost now.  It's quite the thing to get used to. :-(

What I'm hoping for (I may be delusional, but hoping is free) is something carrier-free for less than $200. I have a phone already, so I just want something with a relatively large screen specifically for this game - so off the shelf with just a basic ability to connecdt to the internet in general is ideal. And Android because I already have this game (and one or two others) through Google Play, and I just want to be able to pick it up and play without having to learn anything new at all, no matter how easy it might be (I'm not anti-Apple; I'm just anti-change). My phone is too hard for me to see now (at least for the game) and I found a mini-tablet to be light enough but big enough to allow me to enjoy the game.
