Samsung r451c Straight Talk Phone Review
Posted by admin in prepaid cell phones, straight talk on January 26, 2010
The Samsung r451c is a recent addition to the Straight Talk Wireless lineup and a welcome one at that.
The r451c is a slider phone with a full qwerty with a sleek modern look. This Samsung model is a good option to use on a prepaid plan from Straight Talk Wireless.
For $144.99, you can purchase the phone and your first month of unlimited service. Every month thereafter, you will only have to pay $45 for unlimited monthly service, which includes unlimited calling, text messages, 411 calls, and yes, even unlimited web browsing. It’s one of the best deal in prepaid especially for people who make a high volume of calls or send frequent texts.
If you are a more moderate cell phone user, you will probably be able to make due with the $30 All You Need plan from Straight Talk, which is an incredible value. For $30 you get 1,000 monthly minutes, 1,000 texts every month, and 30 mb of data usage, which is substantial. You even get unlimited 411 calls which saves at least a buck a call. For the phone and this plan, you will pay $129.99.
Learn more about this phone and your plan options at the official Straight Talk Website. Since all phones are not offered in every part of the country, you will have to enter your zip code into a field to see what is available in your area for the Straight Talk plans.
When you arrive at the site, find the “Shop” button at the top left of the page. Highlight that button and then select “Phones.” At that point, you will be asked to input your zip code. Once you do that, you will be able to see all the wonderful Straight Talk phones available to you. You will see the Samsung r451c with both of the plans mentioned above.
