Written by Pay as you go mobile phones can be better than contracts for a number of reasons. Firstly you are more in charge of your phone bills and you do not have to worry about clocking up unaffordable ones even if somebody else gets hold of your phone without your knowledge. Also pay as you go phones do not need credit checks, which can also be an advantage. The only disadvantage though is that you need to find a chunk of cash up-front as with pay-as-you-go you have to actually buy your phone, and some of today’s smartphones can be quite expensive, that being said there are some great offers at Phones 4 U online.
There are three major choices of pay as you go smartphones. These are the Apple i-Phone 4 (and the iPhone 5 is on its way), Blackberry phones, and a range of Android phones. Of course there are also Windows Maple phones which are just around the corner, but at the time of writing they are still a bit of an unknown quantity so we will ignore them for now.
The best pay as you go smartphone depends to a large extent what you want from it. If you want the ultimate in style and posing value then you can’t do better than an iPhone and certainly being an early user of the iPhone 5 will give you oodles of street credibility.
If it is email and messaging that is the most important factor, then you should be looking at the latest range of Blackberry phones such as the Torch.
On the other hand if you love technology and you want the very best in terms of functionality and computing power, then it will be an Android phone that fits the bill and the most sophisticated phone of all is the Android powered Samsung Galaxy S 2 which has a twin 1GHz duel core processor, making it as powerful as a laptop computer.
