Welcome to TracfoneReviewer, a website that shares news, reviews and other information about Tracfone. |
| Tracfone News, Sales and More! |
We want to share with our readers both the latest news, and some of the top discounts or deals from around the web.
Buying a new phone can be a challenging process with many options and lots of pro's and con's for each phone. We want to help by sharing a handful of phones that are either currently discounted, a great deal, or newly available for Tracfone.
We will start by covering some of the new devices available, then some great deals on Tracfone smartphones, and finally some great BYOP phones to bring to Tracfone.
If you're new to Tracfone, start with our Beginners Guide to Tracfone. And if you're not confident in how the activation or transfer process works, we've created a Guide to Activating or Transferring Service with Tracfone.
Let's take a look at some new phones.
New Tracfone Smartphones - October 2016
Some of these new phones were actually released right at the end of September, but we want to include them anyway. We will add any new phones to this list as they are released.Samsung Galaxy On5
This 5" touchscreen smartphone features a 5 MP rear camera (2 MP front), 8 GB memory and Android 6.0. Besides the fact that it runs Android 6,0, which is a very recent version of the OS, the Galaxy On5 doesn't really bring any inspiring features. It compares similarly to the LG Treasure or LG Premier.
It is priced reasonably however, with a minutes bundle on HSN for $149 (on sale for $109). The On5 is a 4G LTE device that uses GSM networks.
Samsung Galaxy Luna
The Luna is fairly similar to the On5, running the same Android 6.0 operating system. It also has a 5 MP camera, 1 GB RAM, 8 GB Memory and quad core processor. The screen size on the Luna is slightly smaller than the On5, at 4.5", which some of our readers prefer. The Luna uses CDMA networks and has 4G LTE capability.
You can find the Samsung Galaxy Luna on QVC with an airtime bundle (1200 minutes) for $121, now on sale for $99. The airtime alone is worth $100.
ZTE Max Duo
The ZTE Max Duo is the type of phone many Tracfone users have been hoping Tracfone would release for a long time. It features 16 GB internal memory, a 1.5 Ghz octa-core processor and 2 GB RAM. It also has a full HD, 6" touchscreen with Gorilla Glass for extra durability.
One of the interesting features on the Max Duo is the dual rear camera. It has two rear facing cameras, one is a 13 MP camera, the other a 2 MP camera. Plus a 5 MP front facing camera.
There are a lot of great things packed into this phone, and it is currently available through HSN with minutes bundle for $249 (on sale for $199). Expect to see more information about this phone from us in the near future.
ZTE Cymbal
The first Android smartphone that is a flip phone. If you just can't give up the flip phone, this might be the upgrade you're looking for. It runs Android 5.1.1, has a 5 MP camera and WiFi. This phone is CDMA and has 4G LTE capability.
Right now we've only found it on BestBuy for $70, and no info on how it performs, but look for more in the near future.
We also want to mention the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus which Tracfone released in September. You can learn more, and see full specs and prices, by visiting our Tracfone iPhone 6 and 6 Plus post.
Tracfone Deals and Discounts - October 2016
Now we want to share some great deals or discounts on Tracfone devices from around the web. If you find other deals, or better deals, be sure to share them in the comments below!Moto E - $20 on Amazon
The Moto E was first released several years ago, but it still can work as a basic smartphone, running a handful of apps, and useful for checking email or weather. It comes with a 4.3" touchscreen, Android 4.4 and 5 MP camera. See more about the Moto E including specs and features.
LG Lucky/Sunrise - $50 with 200 Minute Airtime Card ($40 value) on eBay
Another low-cost smartphone option, the Lucky also runs Android 4.4 and has a 3.8" screen. As with the Moto E, it isn't a very powerful device, but good for basic smartphone functions, and, of course, calling and texting. With this bundle on eBay, you get the LG Lucky and a 200 Minute Airtime card, which is worth $40. At the price, it makes a great backup phone, or device for kids. The LG Lucky uses CDMA networks while the Sunrise uses GSM. Learn more about the Lucky in our Full Review.
LG 306G - $13 on Amazon
We like to include a non-smartphone option for those who are not interested in upgrading to an Android device. With non-smartphones, you get to keep all your airtime in one 'pool' and Tracfone Promo Codes will work on your device. However, non-smartphones are generally very limited in their features, and are best for simple calling and texting and usually not much more than that.
The LG 306G has a 3.2" touchscreen, and uses a java based operating system. It is a popular Tracfone device, although many users end up getting tired of the lack of features, and upgrade to a smartphone. Get full specs and more information in our full review of the LG 306G.
If you would rather have a flip phone, there are two options on Amazon that are currently $15 each. The LG 237C and the LG 441G are basic flip phones from Tracfone that use 3G networks. These are good for daily use, or as a backup. They don't do much beyond calling and texting, but have a long battery life and great durability.
That concludes the deals we've found on Tracfone devices, let's look at some great BYOP options.
Great Deals on Tracfone BYOP Compatible Unlocked Smartphones
Using the Tracfone BYOP program opens up many more options for phones, and many great value devices. Below we will share some of our top picks for unlocked smartphones to use with Tracfone.BLU R1 HD - $109 on Amazon
At just $109 for 2 GB RAM and 16 GB Internal Memory, there are few phones that can compete with the value the R1 HD offers. Many Tracfone smartphones retail for over $100 and only have half the RAM and memory. The BLU R1 HD has received good reviews for being a budget smartphone, and if you're looking to get the most bang for your buck at the $100 range, this might be the best option (unless you go with a refurbished phone).
Moto G4 - $199 on Amazon
The Moto G4 is the latest in a line of popular budget smartphones from Motorola. At a very reasonable price point, it packs a lot of features and value into the $199 price tag. Many see the Moto G4 as the best budget smartphone available. It has a large, 5.5" touchscreen, 13 MP Camera, Octa Core processor, 2 GB RAM and 16 GB Memory. For an extra $30 you can get 32 GB memory.$199 for the features and performance this phone offers is a good deal, and it is compatible with both GSM and CDMA cell networks, making it easy to bring to Tracfone BYOP.
Moto G4 Plus - $299 on Amazon
For those looking for more, the Moto G4 Plus delivers, with more RAM and Memory. The G4 Plus has 4 GB RAM, and 64 GB internal memory (there is also a version with 2 GB RAM and 16 GB memory for $249), features we rarely see on a phone at this price. The extra RAM (compared to the 2 GB on the G4) means that the G4 Plus can handle more operations at once, it can run more apps, or more demanding apps, without slowing down. The G4 Plus also has a 16 MP camera and fingerprint reader.
Honor 5X - $199 on Amazon
The Huawei Honor 5X is another budget friendly smartphone packed with great features. This phone has many similar features to the Moto G4, such as a 5.5" touchscreen, 2 GB RAM, 16 GB memory and 13 MP camera. But it also has two additional features - a finger print scanner and all aluminum body. The Honor 5X is certainly a worthy phone to consider along with the Moto G4.
