Virgin Mobile - Best prepaid smart phone ever!

by David
(Az)

There was a time when prepaid cell phones were frowned upon by the mobile phone community for various reasons. The phones were poor quality, plans were rather expensive, etc. I've been a prepaid user for about four years now, mainly because of my bad experiences with contract plans. I can't say that I loved all the prepaid plans I've tried, but at the time it beat the alternative.


Last year, after having been on the market for several years already, I finally got the urge to get a "smartphone". But alas, this would mean signing a dreaded 2 year contract with a provider I probably despised. But I wanted one. So I started doing some research online, and much to my surprise I find out that there are providers out there offering smartphones on there prepaid plans. I couldn't believe it. I didn't believe it. But sure enough it was true. And the more sites I visited and threads I read, I found Virgin Mobile's Beyond Talk plan to be my new plan of choice. And the LG Optimus V to be my first smart phone. I've had the phone for about 6 months and I love it as much today as I did the first day it came in the mail. I'm on the $25 plan which gives me unlimited data, web, email, and 300 voice minutes. But with a little know how and a handy app, I can make free calls till the cows come home.


And the phone, they call it a mid-grade smartphone but this thing rocks. It actually preforms on the same level as my buddy's galaxy, and out preforms another friend's old school iPhone. Bottom line, if you want a well built smartphone and plan that cannot be beat, check out the Optimus V on Virgin Mobiles Beyond Talk plan. I promise you will not be disappointed.

Loving My Virgin Motorola Triumph
by: Anonymous

I have to say that I'm very impressed with this phone! Most of my friends are on contracts and sometimes make jabs at me about having a prepaid phone. But now that they've seen my Motorola Triumph Android phone, they're really impressed. In fact, they're even a little embarrassed by the fact that their phones aren't any better, and they're paying a lot more on their contract plans. It makes me laugh!

$300 for a phone is a lot of money, yes. But I used to pay about $200 on a contract phone anyway, and the extra $100 is quickly made up by the fact that my plan is actually cheaper than my friends' contract plans, and actually has even more included features.

I really don't ever see myself going back. It's prepaid wireless all the way for me now!

Prepaid Smartphones CAN Compete
by: PrepaidWirelessGuy

I think a lot of people are starting to feel the same way you are. Even since your post, Virgin has launched additional prepaid smartphones that are even more capable than the LG Optimus, including the Motorola Triumph with a 1GHz processor, 4.3" screen, 5MP camera, HD camcorder, etc.


Other carriers have launched additional high performance smartphones as well, and are planning on launching some really exciting smartphones for the remainder of 2011.


It's only a matter of time before more and more people catch on!
