Hey all,
I have a cell phone that is very old (it actually has a qwerty keyboard). I love my old phone and have been putting off upgrading but it doesn't ring (not really a problem because it still vibrates) and isn't going to last much longer. I know...I know...I should just upgrade but want to wait until after my thru-hike.
I am searching for a reliable, no-contract phone for my SOBO thru-hike. The best I have found is a Tracfone Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime 4G LTE 5" 8GB Smartphone w/ 1350 Minutes/Texts/Data. It is right around $90 but that is for a year and you get triple minutes on future reloads. Some of the monthly phones I've seen are around $30-40 per month so that would still be $180-$240 for 6 months.
Anybody seen any better deals or have advice on getting a no-contract phone for a thru-hike?
Thanks,
Mike
