I like TracFone, and was able to transfer minutes from old phone

The Samsung is a nice phone and works well with Tracfone as the service. I also have a LG 420g which has more memory. I carry a phone all the time and it always works fine.

Simple Yet Effective

 

This is a reasonably priced phone and worth the money. I use it to simply to make calls to family and friends - nothing more. To that intent, I give it 5 stars.

Cheap phone, but it works

 

The phone itself seems acceptable, but the activation process was quite a trial. It took multiple phone calls over several days to finally get it working, but now it works and it has to be the cheapest pre-paid I've ever seen. Great for an emergency...
