Cricket Wireless ZTE Engage

October 16, 2012 in Android Blog

Advanced Android Phones on prepaid carriers.  Finally Android Phones are affordable without signing a contract? Does Cricket Wireless intrigue you? Then have I got the news of the century for you. Meet the ZTE Engage. It’s not particularly exciting. It’s not particularly cheap. But it’s… a phone. And it runs Android 4.0. So there’s that.

The ZTE Engage does other things, too. Like music. And apps. Here are some specifications that describe it:

  • 4.0” WVGA TFT capacitive touchscreen
  • Qualcomm MSM8655T Scorpion – 1.4GHz
  • Dual-Facing Cameras: Rear (8.0MP) w/LED Flash & Front (VGA)
  • MUVE Music Ready with 4GB Muve Music SD Card included
  • Removable MicroSD Memory Card (up to 32GB)
  • Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR
  • Lithium Ion 1900 mAh battery

If those don’t get you pumped up, well, you’re probably a person of pretty reasonable expectations. So, how much can you expect to pay for this mundane, rectangular, vaguely DROID Bionic-esque device? $250, starting October 2nd. That’s… actually not very impressive at all. A Galaxy Nexus will cost you $350, and it comes with Jelly Bean. And isn’t a ZTE.

Anyway, if you want to know more about the Engage, engage yourself with the source link below.

Boost Mobile Shrink Plans

August 11, 2012 in Android Blog

Prepaid or Postpaid which is better?

Prepaid plans are becoming very aggressive with their huge values and unlimited minutes. Prepaid plans actually have a better value than signing a contract. The only only value to sign a contract is to get  better phone. Which is great, but what happens if you don’t take the insurance and break your phone. That contract phone is not very cheap. I learned my lesson when I so signed a contract with Sprint for the EVO 4G. Of course I canceled my insurance. The Evo 4g lasted me about a year then started to shut off constantly.  Tried to fix it with master reset, and other quick fixes. To buy another EVO while stuck in my contract was $540.00 even with the evo being over 2 years old.  So I just went and bought a used phone.

The point to this story is if you break phone and don’t have insurance its not cheap to replace your phone.

With the prepaid services the phones are more expensive, but you get a way better plan. Boost Mobile for example offers for $55 unlimited: minutes, Long distance, pix, text, and Android Market. It even gets better the plan drops $5 every six months when you pay your bill on time up to $15 off so after a 1 year and 6 months you are now paying $40 per month for life for an Android Plan. That seems like a really good value to me. They even have some really nice phones like the HTC EVO Design
