Actually I think there are plenty of people like me that could use a phone like this and still have time left over at the end of the year.
Some people, like me just use a phone as an actual phone. I use my computer for most other things like bills and such. My phone is just a phone and no I don't speak on the phone most days either.
Another thing you seem to have ignored is it's only $60. Many people pay more than that for a single month. So in reality, you COULD buy this phone every month and still save money.

Quote from LavenderPickle7682 :
$60 is 2x of $10? ....I mean, sure, if you say so.

$10/month gets me unlimited calls + texts, with a respectable 1gb of data. The phone was freely provided. Compare that to spending $60 for a 1500 plan (and a below average device) that has to last 12 months.

If you "don't need" something because you don't use it, then don't buy it? Otherwise of course it's going to be wasteful. I don't see how that relates to this so-called "deal" being all that amazing. Folks need to be aware that it's a really, REALLY limited plan on a weak device.

Is that US mobile as your phone's wireless carrier? Are you happy with it? TIA.

Thanks but prefer a decent phone for surfing at night rather than my 8" Amazon tablet with 2 gigs/memory. I'll have this one and then unlocking my other phone and my friend got in on a real good deal of 2 lines from T-mobile awhile back with unl talk/text/60gigs 5G data/per line for $60. I'll let him use that phone when he explores in his truck camper and I will use this phone.

This deal is good if you actually get minutes, texts and data with the phone. I had to return multiple orders from tracfone ebay due to no minutes, text or data on phones or sim cards. I don't deal with tracfone via ebay anymore.

It's just like any other phone service, porting is not a problem.

Quote from LieutenantChuckles :
Looks like lavenderpickle was writing that up as you submitted your comment. For 60 bucks (40 if you're a first time customer) this a very good deal for a decent emergency phone. No one is buying this as their main everyday phone and that's not what this is designed for.
I agree, completely. Cheap deal for a backup phone in the glove box for those times I forget my daily driver, hopefully avoids a return trip to get it.

My concern:
These "whole year of one talk/text/data pool" deals should specifically state the amounts listed are not a monthly allotment.

Reason: Most cellular plans renew and reload monthly.
Even with Tracfone, you could get monthly allotment plans, so it's ambiguous without stating it more specifically.

The FP deal editor didn't even explain it well.
You had left out the plan details other than it was for a year, for some reason. I hope this makes sense as advice for future deals. Thank you for posting, and repped.

Buying this for my mother who needs a new phone. Getting a decent brand-new entry-level smartphone for < $50 out the door is good. Getting a nominal usage plan, which is plenty for her since she barely uses her phone, makes this a good deal.

If someone knows where to get a better phone for that price, please let me know. I couldn't find one.

I'm hoping that she can use the Samsung A13 5G with another carrier's plan after the 1 year period, if needed. If not, maybe she'll get another Tracfone bundled deal.

I looked at the BLU phone, but she really doesn't need the higher usage plan, and she likes to pinch her pennies, so this fit the bill.

This deal was $40 about two weeks ago.
To get a brand new Samsung Galaxy A13 with 64GB memory plus service 1 year is not too bad. Phone can be unlocked in 2 months and used with any carrier.
But there is a catch. As shocking as it sounds, Galaxy A13 uses a 32-bit Android operating system, so the 64-bit apps wont work on this phone. One good example is the populat DJI Fly app used to control DJI drones. If you plan to dedicate this phone work on the remote permanently, you will be disappointed as the app won't install on Galaxy A13.

I'm a little leery about the h/w - whether the phone will boot or not but I've never heard of them shipping w/o a sim. They're usually shipped in the phone already. Since the plan is tied to the sim, no sim no plan.

Hi guys. Sorry I'm new to the USA, just came.
My old neighbor has mint plan, but she doesn't want to pay 180usd per year anymore.
Is there any way to buy this deal and transfer her mint number here?
Or if no, how can freeze her old number for year? Just put it in drawer and get message,calls for year with lowest price?
