Touchscreen Straight Talk Samsung T528g

Ever since the Samsung Finesse came and went from the Straight Talk page, many people have been trying to get their hands on that phone. Not really sure why because the phone wasn't very good and didn't do a whole lot and it was also like 400 bucks.

Some 2 years later and Straight Talk finally ads the Samsung T528g as a capable Samsung Finesse replacement. After a long touchscreen phone dry spell, Straight Talk finally adds another Touchscreen phone to it's phone line up.

So what's so special about the Samsung T528g? Well, for one the Samsung T528g is 3g which the Finesse was not. Another advantage is the WiFi connectivity, again another feature the Finesse never had. The T528g actually uses a very similar touch interface to the Finesse. So for $99 the Straight Talk Samsung T528g actually dues much more than their original touchscreen phone. While not quite a smartphone, no true OS, it does quite a bit and the 3g connectivity will really let you take advantage of the Straight Talk Unlimited plan.

If you've been thinking of upgrading or the current Straight Talk line up isn't doing it for you , then the Samsung T528g may just be the ticket to reaping the Straight Talk savings. It does just about everything you want a phone to do at a very reasonable price.

Straight Talk Nokia E71 and Nokia 6790 Resurface on Straight Talk

I have been curious why Straight Talk pulled the two best phones they had. What with all the Android Smartphones Cricket, Boost and Virgin have been putting out. Not that I would use any of those crappy services but it still doesn't look good for Straight talk when their best phone is the lousy Samsung T401. With that, It would seem that the good folks at Straight Talk finally figured out that you have to have a Smartphone in your line up if you want to push the Unlimited plan. Can you really do much with Unlimited using phones like the Samsung T401 or 355? I think not.

Anyhow, if you've been trying to get your hands on a Straight Talk Nokia E71 and/or a Nokia 6790 now is your time to act because both phones are currently available on the Straight Talk website for $199. Now you better act fast and grab one if you really want one because they might not last long. If you're still holding out for the Straight Talk android phone, then keep on holding out because it's still not available. My guess is, wait until it gets closer to Black Friday. By then I am 90% sure we will finally see a Straight Talk Android phone. Until then, the Nokia E71 and 6790 are available and while the E71 may not be an Android phone, it is 100% certified smart and a quite an awesome phone in its own right.

So why did the Straight Talk E71 and 6790 go away? Well, some say the Unlimited plan was being used and abused. Others say too many people using E71 sim in their iPhones. Whatever the reason is, who knows. If the latter was the case the new E71 sim is Sure NOT to work on the iPhone. So whatever the reason was looks like Straight Talk has changed it's mind.

Net10 / Tracfone Compare Motorola EX124g to the LG800g

The Motorola EX124g is another of the new Net10/Tracfone "2.0" phones. That is phones that don't totally suck! The Motorola EX124g is a very handsome touchscreen model replacing the short lived LG800g. So it seems that the Tracfone/Net10 LG800g just had too many problems with it. Receiving picture texts being the main issue it seems. So out with the LG800g which may or may not return and in with the Motorola EX124g.

The look of the EX124g is far superior, in my humble opinion, to the LG800g. this one's got that modern sleek look to it while the LG800g was a bit dated. Another thing that I didn't care for the LG800g was it's odd size. Sure it was small which is nice in this day and age where phone sizes seem to be regressing back to the old brick, but the LG800g was just a tad too small. This one is slightly larger with a bit bulkier feel to it so it fits nicely in the hand.

While both phones are resistive touchscreen models, the EX124g is far more responsive to the touch. While on the LG800 you sometimes had to press real firm to get anywhere, the EX124g responds to light presses so no need to mash the screen with all your might on this one. The user interface on this phone is yet another feature to like over the LG800g. This phone comes with a more modern interface which is superior to the LG800g which had a bit of a dated feel to the user interface and it's weird looking icons. Don't get me wrong, the LG800g is a nice enough phone, it's just that this one is much better.

The EX124g has the same basic features, though we must say is much more handsome device. Of course we all love touchscreen devices and the EX124g is no exception. As with all new Tracfone/Net10 offerings, this one is Java app ready. So it's just a matter of firing up getjar, downloading your apps and moving them to the phone. Very easy! MP3 player, full HTML browser, expandable SD card slot round out the feature set. So a well equipped Net10/Tracfone indeed.

So as it stands, the Motorola EX124g is a nice upgrade to the LG800g. I wouldn't chuck the LG800g out the window for the Motorola EX124g just yet, after all the LG800g is relatively new, but if you you are still thinking about upgrading your old school Net10/Tracfone this model is well worth it. Only downside is the higher price. Though you can save $5 with coupon GI2011 if nothing else.

Please come back for videos and a full demo of the Motorola EX124g.

New Touchscreen and QWERTY Tracfones - LG500g and LG800g

While Tracfone offers some great savings for many users, their handsets have always been somewhat lacking. Lets face, some of them downright suck! I know by Samsung T301 leaves much to be desired in terms of functionality. Well, Tracfone has finally decided to add some nicely capable handsets to their line up, the LG500g and the LG800g.

Both phones come packed with what are now considered industry standards, though no current Tracfone has. Features include mp3, video recorder, digital camera, expandable SD slot, full HTML browser and more. In addition, both phones are also appable! While these are far from "smartphones" both phones are fully capable and starting at $29, you really can't go wrong with the price!

Two great little phones that will finally motivate me to upgrade that old Samsung T301. Find out if these phones are available for your area
