When Xfinity Mobile burst onto the scene earlier this summer, the only ‘low cost’ solution they had for phones was the LG X Charge, which listed at $180 outright or $7.50 per month. Other than that, the devices would set users back anywhere from $15 to $40 a month depending on the configuration and…

How To Make The Jump To Saving Money With A Prepaid Plan
One of the most common questions that people ask today is how they can get started in a prepaid cellular plan without sacrificing the ‘top-tier’ device that they already have. For those carrying a new iPhone 6 or Samsung Galaxy S6, the monthly savings are tempting, until they see that it will cost them a…
Boost Mobile Shocks The Value Market With The LG Volt 2
The sub $200 smartphone market is getting awfully crowded. With great devices coming from so many manufacturers, it’s getting harder and harder to justify the expense of those flagship smartphones like the HTC One M9, Samsung Galaxy S6 or iPhone 6. Of course, when you can team that $150 deal with a plan that delivers…
Solavei Increasing Pricing 45% Overnight
It was only a matter of time before the bottom line caught up with Solavei and their users. The draw of Solavei was the word ‘unlimited’. Of course, it wasn’t long before users found that there was a different meaning to that word if you were in the top 5% of the data users on…
Accessory Review: Soundbot SB220 Bluetooth Stereo Headphones
Hot off the heels of my Skullcandy Titan review, I wanted to keep the music theme going with a few more must haves. This time, I take the music up a notch by removing the strings. The $19.99 street price on the Soundbot Bluetooth SB220 Headphones is a great deal. Although not a perfect pair…
Republic Wireless Offers $99 Defy XT
One of our favorite wireless deals just got more interesting. For those that can’t spring for a $279.00 Motorola Defy XT to take advantage of that $19 a month service ($807 2 yr cost after taxes), the good folks at Republic Wireless have you covered with a newer, low cost option. For $99 upfront for…
2013 Best Value In Wireless – Unlimited Plan #5
Simple Mobile impressed us to the tune of the 5th best deal in wireless this year. Had they offered the 2GB plan at a slightly more affordable $45 price tag they would have moved up the list a few more spots. As it sits, with that $200 non-contract handset from T-Mobile and 24 months of service, starts at $1160.
Quick Press: Red Pocket Mobile To Cut Data To 1GB
In a bit of sad news, our 2012 Best Value In Wireless Winner, Red Pocket Mobile, has made a decidedly bad move in the value department for their users. What was an unlimited minute, text, MMS and 2GB data plan for $59.99 will quickly become a $54.99 plan that features the same unlimited portions, but…
Hardware Review: Cricket Huawei Mercury
Much of the value of the Huawei Mercury depends on if you live in a strong Cricket Wireless area. If you do, the only drawback to the exceptional $229.99 non-contract pricing for the Mercury is the $65 a month unlimited Android plan that comes with it.
Review: Red Pocket Mobile
Overall, for the light user, you might be able to sneak in the $49.99 plan and just borrow a few MB here and there on the road. For the 'I want to Facebook from my phone at home" body, the $39.99 plan is right up your alley. For you power users, and we don't me those tethering fools that challenge themselves weekly to set a 100GB download record, the $59.99 plan should be a great fit.
