Touch Screen Phone, You Say? Only $50, You Say?

2011 | Wordpress Themes

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Net10 for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

All this talk about phones has gotten me looking again. The market for phones of all kinds is huge, and I know what I want (I'm greedy, you're about to find out how true that is) – the whole package. I want a name brand (either an LG or a Nokia, I have a Samsung and a Motorola Razr), I want the same amazing coverage and all the trimmings I'm getting now (unlimited calling and texting, cheap international, camera, mobile web, etc. for $50 a month with no contracts/credit checks/you name it) but I also want something my current phone doesn't have. I want gadgets!
I want trendy, trendy gadgets! I want a touch screen, I want apps, I want a video recorder – the works. I want it to look cool. Yes, I am that shallow. I want it to look all Star Trek, and I don't want to have to sell my house to afford it like I would have to if I wanted to purchase a touch screen anything from a certain fruit-titled company who shall not be named. And if I don't get what I want, I will absolutely have a hissy over it.
I'm starting to make a bit more money, and while I can't afford to spend willy nilly (now suddenly wondering where that term comes from :/), I can afford to save up for this bad boy – the LG 800G. It's…. it's…. *sigh*
  • Let's just go over what it offers, real quick (oh, and this is for about $50 bucks – take THATLG 800G unlocked eBay phones and people who still buy them and refuse to see the Light!):
  • Touch Screen
  • Mobile Web
  • Bluetooth® Wireless Technology
  • 2.0 Megapixel Camera & Video Recorder
  • MP3 Player (cable and microSD Card not included)
  • APP Capable (App download requires purchase of additional memory)
  • MMS Picture Messaging
  • Voicemail, Call Waiting, and Caller ID
  • Text Messaging
  • LCD Color Display
  • Hands-Free Speaker
  • Voice/Sound Recorder
  • Auto Redial
  • Alarm Clock
  • Phonebook with up to 1000 Entries
  • Includes Polyphonic Ringtones
  • Lightweight – 3.06 ounces
  • Battery talk time up to 4 hours
  • Standby time up to 8 days
And Net10 phones are durable little buggers with either pay-as-you-go plans (don't worry, your minutes carry over if your service remains active), the Unlimited Minutes, Text and Web plan which is the one my mom would need and that's about $50 a month, but then there's the perfect-for-me plan: The Easy minutes plan.

The Easy Minuter Plan is an automatic minutes plan and it starts out at 200 minutes and you can get that for something like $15, which is exactly what I was griping about before. I love prepaid's, but I wish they had smaller minute plans and this is about the perfect size! I think you can buy minutes at stores, I think I've seen them at Dollar General, but if you're anything like me you're probably so busy you'll opt for the easy route – the internet or directly from your phone. I prefer the net, but I tend to prefer the net for everything, lol.
They have information I don't, so check them out on Facebook if you get a chance, and follow them on Twitter!
It would be great to have a phone for the house and one for when I'm out on the road, especially one that takes better pictures than the one I've got now. Plus I need a minimal quality video recorder if I'm ever going to do those vintage hair tutorials over at Victory Girl, and I really don't want to have to choose between a new phone and a camera. Way too cheap for that! Basically, I want something that will help me keep in touch with my bosses and clients so I can write off a frivolous luxury (that I want, want, want!) as a business expense. :P
Don't take my word for it, hear it from a real NET10 customer and then ask your local genie to send me an LG 800G!
