Good Phone Option

Since Public Mobile doesn't sell phones, we all have to shop around for our devices. While scouting for a good PC to buy for black Friday, I came across what seems like a pretty good deal. @ShawnC13, this phone is for you.

Good price for the phone with the specs it comes with.

Only downside is, not everyone can handle Windows phones...which lacks some apps here and there. Personally, I use a Lumia 950XL and am happy with the phone as most of the more popular apps I need are available, not to mention the extra features of being able to send texts and see my phone notifications on my Windows 10 laptop.

@will13am, lol bought it a month ago and returned it next day. Does have the VR headset with it. It is a great deal and know a few that have it and they are getting over 2 days of use on one charge. W10M is dead with no future improvments coming. That is why I am looking at Android now with the Microsoft launcher and all of their software you can really make it a Microsoft phone. Until then I will run my 950XL until I decide on my next phone. I do have a 640XL, 640 and a 830 for back up if I ever need a phone.

The windows phone have some pretty descent hardware. The software totally sullies the package. This is a good indicator of how much of a phone's intrinsic value is imbedded in the software ecosystem. It is why I like running third party roms. Get great software support without paying full price for it.

Moto G5 is also a good phone for $250.
