AdBlock for Android. A bit of a kludge but it (mostly) does the job.

Is that AdBlock Plus that does proxy stuff? That is work with mobile data?

If it works by acting as a local proxy it should block anything before it leaves the phone, and thus not count towards data usage.
Or just use
uBlock Origin
which is almost certainly better.

So. Phones.
Lost mine last week, just picked up a replacement at 7-11 store down the street from work for $44 (FiGO Ultra), a 5" with android 6 and ips display, actually quite an upgrade from the Blu Advance 4 it replaces. Getting through to customer service to port over the number (same provider) was a real bitch though, but I was able to keep the airtime in my account.

I bought a OnePlus 6. It is nice, but slightly more than $44

I bought a Pixel 2 XL. Got a 'pristine' refurb for £380. The mic didn't work on calls! So I contacted Google and they sent me a brand new retail boxed one as it was still in warranty. That was a bit of a result

I tried to buy the phone online but their website kept erroneously rejecting my card. So I thought fuck it, I'll try an actual store. I got a 30% bigger discount, didn't have to pay shipping or faff around with delivery and walked out with the phone in my hand. Jeesh, bricks and mortar. Who knew?

I did get a 5% student discount. But I've just worked it out and that discount is more than the full price of Smithys phone
