did some reading on the ZTE Stratos LTE Z819L, I liked the specs, but seems a lot of people have had problems with it, I'm not sure of other ZTE models, I have a LG, people seem to have white screen problems with this model.

what's your opinion of this one compared to the LG Rebel?

I'm looking at BYOPs and I found the Blu R1 HD. The base model (8GB memory, 1GB RAM) runs $99, but the premium model (16GB memory, 2GB RAM) is only $109. Also, Amazon is running a deal where you can get either phone for $50 off (making them $49 and $59 respectively). The only drawbacks are the offer is only for Amazon Prime members and the discounted phones come with ads and bloatware.

Here is more info: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B01H2E0KVA/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=YGWF0AE9BLWY&coliid=I22FN2J3AHHVQP&psc=1

I've enjoyed the phones that Tracfone has had on offer (mainly the convenience of having an inexpensive phone that works right out of the package), but for the prices above (and a loophole or two in the form of a SIM Activation), you can get a phone with twice the hardware and is more durable.

The Moto G seems the better bet. It's as close to tier 1 for low low price.

I just got my android tracfone and am very confused about the minutes, data and texting. I have the 29.99 card. I started out with something like 360 minutes, texts, and MB of data. Suddenly after 4 days, I still have the minutes and texts but my account shows 0 data. I don't know what I even used it for.....I am not using the internet, just wifi. Can I no longer use anything that takes data? I have made no phone calls or texts. What is the best thing for me to do?

I have a Moto G 1st Gen purchased from Amazon in 2015 for $114 and it's still going strong, has fast speed, long life battery (2 days). I text see email, use the Bible app, read books, watch YT videos and even Netflix. Very good phone have not had one problem to date with it. Just works!! Great with my Square device in order to take charge cards for my little business.

Does anyone know of a vendor who is still selling the ZTE Lever with Tracfone minutes (NOT Straight Talk) in September 2016? Am I correct in saying the Straight Talk phones will not work with Tracfone?
