| arwenevenstar's Full Review: Kyocera Mita Virgin Pay-As-You-Go Mobile Kyocera P... |
I have owned many cellular phones over the past 7 years and have spent much of my heard-earned cash on them. So I was pleasantly surprised by Virgin Mobile's affordable "Party Animal".I had a $150 Sprint PCS phone that would klonk out in department stores. My VM "Party Animal" worked well in the same stores and in other areas that my other phone had no service.I especially liked the changeable face plates since I tend to grow tired of looking at the same colors all the time .The phone also comes with "Virgin Extras" which is a fun software included on the phone. In addition to Caller ID, call waiting and free voice mail. You can listen to music clips, download ring tones of your favorite songs, and become a member of text messaging groups.(Text messages are free to receive but .10 to send.)
All of this for a very generous .25 per minute for the first 10 minutes and .10 per minute thereafter for the same call. I did my homework on ALL the prepaid plans and found Virgin Mobile's to be the the most affordable and honest.I really loved the fact that there were no hidden charges and you could refill or "Top-Up" the time on your phone for only $20. VM allows you to keep your refilled minutes for up to 3 months, not so with other plans such as At&T's "free-up".I loved the sound quality of the phone, the fun features and the fact that you could change the look of your phone whenever you wanted by just buying the colorful face plates.I am very happy with the clarity and ease of use of my VM phone and I would highly recommend for: Those on a tight budget (like me), people who do not use their cell phone excessively, or for parents who want to keep track of their kids' cell phone usage. There is no such thing as going past your minutes and getting a HUGE bill here! You get as many minutes as you pay for. Virgin Mobile's affordable, feature-packed phone and up-front, no-nonsense pre-paid pricing makes this little "Party Animal" a great deal in my book!
