Amazon has recently launched a new site, Amazon Wireless, that makes purchasing your cell phone plan AND cell phone itself simpler and quicker. You can shop for top phones such as the Android and Blackberry and purchase them at the price after rebate, completely eliminating the 4 – 8 week rebate reimbursement wait!
It looks like most top phones (except for the iPhone, of course) are on Amazon Wireless, allowing you to easily upgrade your phone when needed.
Also, they have FREE 2-day shipping on all phones, so you are getting a fast turnaround on any phones purchased through them. Some phones were as little as 1¢ with a service plan, so you should definitely be able to find a phone that fits your budget.
I definitely recommend spending a little time researching your cell phone to see what other users have said about it before purchasing. As little as 30 minutes on Google can tell you A LOT about the phone you are interested in. If you really don’t know where to start Cnet’s cell phone reviews is a great resource for in-depth reviews of the most popular cell phones available on the market.
We will definitely be checking out Amazon Wireless when it’s time to upgrade our phones. If any of you guys have used it or end up using it I’d love to hear how it went in the comments below!
