If you’re in the market for a new phone on the super cheap, Virgin Mobile has just added 2 new Samsung feature phones to its payLo lineup. With one being a flip, the other a QWERTY slider, and both contract-free for less than $50, there is something for every budget shopper.
First up, we have the Samsung Entro. This flip-phone is available right now for just $14.99. It sports a 1.77-inch main display, web access, external color display, speakerphone, and text message capabilities.
For those looking for a few more features, but are not ready to jump into a smartphone, Virgin Mobile will also be offering the Samsung Montage starting on August 20th. This side-slider will retail for $49.99 and feature a full QWERTY keyboard, a 2-megapixel camera and camcorder, Bluetooth, microSD expansion slot, threaded text messaging, email, web access, media player, voicemail, and caller ID.
Both handsets are eligible for Virgin Mobile’s payLo plan. That plan gives customers unlimited talk and text plus 50MB of data for just $40 a month with no contract.
