Virgin Mobile and Straight Talk Android New Releases

Posted on November 10, 2011 by Chris

Virgin Mobile seems to be a pretty forward-thinking company and in no small part because it is owned by the wealthy entrepreneur Richard Branson.  When it comes to adding prepaid Android phones to its plans, Virgin has actually added one of the best android phones available right now to its plans, the Motorola Triumph.  It’s a beautiful phone with a gorgeous touch screen and a sleek body style.  Triumph has a super fast processor and can download files exceedingly fast, which makes this phone quite powerful.  Straight Talk has also recently jumped on the Android prepaid phone wagon and has added two new phones to its plans.

Straight Talk’s New Android-Centric Phone Line

straight talk android precedentThe Straight Talk Android Samsung phone is part of the Galaxy line of phones and is called the Precedent, which may not just be a play on words since Straight Talk has set the precedent on Unlimited prepaid plans, having the best one or at least close to the best one in the prepaid phone business.  The beauty about this phone (and its sister phone the LG Optimus Q for Straight Talk) is that both of these phones provide you with unlimited talk, unlimited text messaging, and unlimited web browsing, in addition to cool perks like GPS voice-guided and multiple email account access via the android phone.

Virgin Mobile’s Android Answer

When Virgin Mobile’s Android phone first came out, jaws dropped.  The Motorola Triumph is quite simply one of the best prepaid Android phones available today.  It has a beautiful screen, an amazingly fast double processor, and a really good look.  The screen and camera really stick out as the two best aspects or the Virgin Android phone.  At well over $200, this phone is quite expensive, but if you are the type who appreciates a very nice phone that also runs on an affordable unlimited prepaid plan, definitely think about this phone.

Other Prepaid Android Phones

Other companies, such as Net10, MetroPCS, T-Mobile, and Boost Mobile all have their own Android devices.  Have a look at all of them in order to compare availability.  Keep a look out for deals too, as these companies are competitive with one another and may release awesome deals in order to get a leg up with customers.

Nokia E5 and Nokia E71: Straight Talk Phone Comparison

Posted on August 6, 2011 by Chris

It’s never a bad thing to over-analyze.  Okay, maybe it can be.  But that’s not going to stop me from doing it and it’s not a bad thing to think a little bit too much about the products that you buy.  It can be a confusing task though, when you’re comparing two cell phones that are very similar to each other.  Straight Talk has a bunch of good phones, but only three that I would really consider.  Two of the three I’m talking about here are the Nokia E5 and the very similar but different Nokia E71.  Both of these phones were let out of their cages on the very same day and immediately became two of the most popular phones from this company.

When you’re comparing Nokia E5 to Nokia E71, you have to consider a couple of things.  One is design of the actual phones.  The Nokia E5, which a lot of people consider to be the superior phone is made entirely out of plastic.  The E71 is made of metal, so you instantly have a big difference in terms of look and feel.  A second thing you need to consider is the camera and video quality.  Straight Talk Nokia E5 has a better camera and is going to be able to take clearer photos and capture higher quality video for you.

Both of these phones are similar in one very key way that you should definitely know about before you buy one of them.  They both only work with the Straight Talk unlimited prepaid plan, which is one of the top in the business.  Of course, this does not mean it’s the best for you.  That is entirely up to you.  You have to figure out what you need in a cell phone plan and go find it.  There is nothing that’s going to be the best plan for every single person since every person’s needs are different.  MetroPCS and Verizon have prepaid plans to look at for comparison purposes.

But if you’re looking at a Straight Talk phone, these two are worth spending a little time getting to know, especially if you don’t want to be left in the dust with a low powered cell phone.
