	Whiz could be a parody of [[wp:Sprint Nextel\|Sprint]], as both companys' names mean "to move quickly", and they share a color scheme of yellow and black. However, Whiz could also be a parody of [[wp:Verizon Wireless\|Verizon]], as they are both the top network in their worlds and their names sound similar and on one of their radio commercials they have a person saying "Can you see my junk now? Good." which is very similar to Verizon's "Can you hear me now? Good." commercials.

The logo also bears a resemblance to [[wp:Cingular Wireless\|Cingular]], although they changed their name to AT&T Mobility. AT&T itself may be Whiz, considerably since both names are 4 letters and both companies use black and orange.

	In the game, [[Niko Bellic]] starts with a [[Badger]] [[Cell Phone\|phone]] until [[Playboy X]] gives him a better Whiz phone in the "[[Photo Shoot]]" mission to take a picture of a snitch. The new phone is both better looking than the old phone and has a [[Camera]], allowing Niko to take pictures.
