A blog all about cell phones!

Cash 4 Phones is Cellular Trendz new buyback program.

Don’t just recycle your phone, get money for it!

Studies have found that most people have one or two used cell phones lying around the house, replaced by a new model. Why do used cell phones lie around? Most people know that it’s bad for the environment to throw electronics away, and that most e-waste contains valuable metal which can be recycled.

Even better, extend the life of your used cell phones, sell them so someone else can enjoy them!

Used cell phones go through a 27 point inspection before they are resold, and are sold with a 30 day gaurentee.

What do you do with your used cell phones?

Used Cell Phones are the tip of the iceberg to saving money on your cell phone service. Do you know about no-contract plans to pair with your used cell phone? Well here’s 3 easy steps to save hundreds yearly:

1) The initial expense to a no-contract plan is the cell phone. Carriers heavily subsidize cell phones to get you locked into their contracts, but if you can afford the initial cost, you’ll save more money not taking their offer! Of course, when you buy a used cell phone the whole process becomes more affordable to begin, and in the end you’ll have more money saved!
2) Be brave. Ask your preferred carrier about their no contract plans! You could save between $20-$50 dollars a MONTH! (Of course, make sure that you have an unlocked cell phone before choosing a carrier, or that your used cell phone matches the service provider).
3) Profit! That is, enjoy your savings! And your used cell phone!

For shared plans, it may be cheaper to be on contract since adding lines costs very little…but you should still ask! And of course, even if you go with a contract, you’ll still save money with used cell phones for the entire family!

As Android cell phones start to take over the market, it may interest users to know that unlocked cell phones work better than their tied down counterparts!

How? When unlocked cell phones are free of restrictions, apps, and other software nonsense carriers like to pack onto the phones they sell in-store. Without carrier software running in the background, restricting use, unlocked cell phones run faster!

Unlocked cell phones also tend to have more memory because they aren’t carrying around carrier software. So if you are an app fiend (and Android has some great apps!) you might save money (by not having to delete old games) with the memory an unlocked cell phone provides!

How do you get unlocked cell phones? Well, you can risk doing it yourself, if you know how. Be warned: there’s the risk of turning your phone into a “brick”, rendering it useless and voiding the warranty. Instead, the safer bet is to buy unlocked cell phones direct, so you know they’ll work when you get them. Then you can hook it up to whatever GSM carrier floats your boat!

How much faster, in your experience, do unlocked cell phones work? Would you describe the difference as little or BIG?
