Net10 - Nokia 1600 Cell Phone —

The Net10 mobile is a nice priced phone but what makes it the best deal so far is the minutes/text price. I don't have the great model with the camera, web browsing, etc., I just have the basic model. Your price are 10 cents a min. for calls and 5 cents for texts. I beleive it is good for the average person that just needs in in case of an emergency, on the road, or lost. This isn't for someone that is looking for all the bells and whistles, it's just basic phone service, although I have never been in a spot where I couldn't use it, except in Walmart(but I've talked to other people about their cellphones going out in walmart, and it is the same no matter what brand you have). For the price, you can't beat it. Watch sale flyers for the best deal on them, as I got a GREAT deal with mine. My deal was if you buy a 300 minute card, the phone was 1 penny, the phone came with 300 mintes free just for buying it, so I ended up with the phone and 600 minutes for roughly $32. The minutes last 60 days for every 300 you buy, so mine is good for 4 months. They do rollover as long as you buy a new card/minutes before your exp. date, AND you get to keep your raining days. It rolls over the days and min. for you. No contract, credit check, no monthly bill. If the min. or days run out on your phone before you can add more, they give you a week to add min. to save the same number, or whenever you do re-activate the phone you might be given the choice of the same number or different one, depending on how long you let it go. I would reccomend this phone to anyone with little kids, if they get your phone and call on it, they only wasted dimes, not dollars.
