The Facts: Verizon Cellular Phones

By Todd Brandley


Verizon Wireless is a mobile network operator run out of New Jersey in the United States. It was founded in 2000. The company sells numerous Verizon cellular phones that range in function, price and size and are to be used on mobile networks.

Mobile or cellular phones are devices that are capable of making and receiving telephone calls. They do this using a radio link that covers a huge geographic area. The mobile phone operators allow devices to connect to a public telephone network by way of the cellular network. In modern times, many of these devices do more than send and receive calls. They can also access email, the Internet, Bluetooth, gaming, photography, applications and text messaging. Often these advanced devices are called smartphones.

The company sells a variety of basic and smartphones. These are not manufactured by them but different brands, including Casio, LG, Samsung, Motorola and Pantech. They also sell more advanced units and products by brands such as HP, HTC, Compaq, Apple, Sony Ericsson, Android, Windows and Palm.

These units can be bought with or without a contract from the network. Generally, it is recommended that customers sign a service contract because this reduces the cost of the phone. Individuals who purchase a phone without a new contract or extension of their current contract are subject to phone retail price, which can range from as low as $100 to as high as $900. Signing or extending a contract will greatly reduce the selling price.

Certified pre-owned devices are also an option. These units have been inspected and reconditioned. All pre-owned devices are checked thoroughly to guarantee they meet like-new conditions. Typically these phones are less expensive than brand new ones and if manufacturing defects occur before the first year, they will replace the phone.

Phones and other devices can also be traded in for a value that can be used towards a new device. It is recommended that new devices be purchased with equipment coverage or insurance. This keeps the owner from having to pay extra fees, if the phone malfunctions, is lost or stolen after the warranty period.

So think about Verizon Wireless when you need a new cell phone. You can find all the cell phone products and accessories you need. Cell phones can be bought new or pre-owned and have option insurance and service contracts.
