coolfox31 Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 Hello OCC Members, What is the best cell phone out there that offers great features. I like the Motorola RAZR V3. Because of the design and all the features it offers. No one in my school has that cell phone. I was also told I could hook this phone up to any network. So if you guys want to help me find a kick butt cell phone plan. I'm looking at version, T-mobile, any other companies you guys can come up with. I want to spend no more than $50/month on my plan. I want to get unlimited text messaging, 300-500 Anytime minutes and unlimited nights and weeks. Anyways thanks for you guys that help.

andrusk Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 sounds like you know what you want. You just dont want to do the research. You can go to amazon and get a really good comparison of all the different plans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolfox31 Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 no it's not that... I been doing the search. I been to c.net and the razr looks good. I just wanted to see what was people's opinions on it and what phones they really like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrusk Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 (edited) I live in phoenix, so this is of course subjective. But down here the rank is 1. Verizon 2. Tmobile 3. Sprint 4. Att/Cingular Im currently using tmobile and havent had any problems yet. Ill probably switch to Verizon though.

Newport Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 I am from Kansas city and i am using Cingular. I have a 39.99/month plan that has 450 anytime, 5000 off peak and i think to get unlimited text would be around $6 extra dollars. So for 450 anytime, 83.333 hours of offpeak, and unlimited text, it would be around 46 bucks plus a 36 dollar activation fee. Free long distance, and if you do any web serfing on your phone, you get 50 MB of free surfing... At least i did on mine... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoLoDreaM Posted March 28, 2005 Posted March 28, 2005 i have verizon and its pretty much impossible to get 3rd party ringtones and stuff... if you want to download ringtones and all kinds of stuff for free from the net (without using verizon's getitnow and having to pay for ur ringtone) get like att/cingular or something.. but verizon's service is great.. they just need to work on the downloadable content a bit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CmpFreak88 Posted April 3, 2005 Posted April 3, 2005 Around where I live, way out in the boonies in a little known town, the best reception is the phone company formerly known as AT&T (Cingular). I tend to get really good reception everywhere. That phone is going to cost you an arm and a leg. With a new account, plan on spending at least $200, if not more.

I use Tmobile service was spotty when I went to TN, but around here its been fine. Verizon def. has the best servive around the Phili area though.

silkster Posted April 4, 2005 Posted April 4, 2005 (edited) Cingular is pure garbage, let me save you the trouble and get Tmobile. Unlimitted text for 10 bucks (incoming and outgoing) and 40 bucks for 1000 WHENEVER minutes. none of those weird "peak hours" or any trash like that, just flat out 1000 min, unlimited nights and weekends :EDIT: oh yes, and I forgot to mention, that Razor phone is nice but all reviews point that it has embarassing battery life Edited April 4, 2005 by silkster Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
