What exactly is a no contract and an unlocked cell phone? I had an unlimitrd data plan on 3g but, it did not transfer when I updated my phone to 4Glte. Thanks for any info you can supply.

a contract is what you sign when you go to a cellphone company like sprint so its better to buy a phone without one its cheaper and when a cellphone is unlocked it is able to be used on any company with a sim card like say you have a at&t phone and you want to use it on t-mobile you can as long as it is unlocked .what company do you have?

I do not understand the "new" world of cell phones, so I do not really understand your question. I have an expired Verizon contract that I continue to pay monthly. It is not a prepaid plan nor is it anything like their current options. I do not have a data plan.

I am not on contract (Even More Plus plan) on T-Mobile, have an unlocked phone and also use their 9.99 UNLIMITED data plan for feature-phones.This works out best ... the Even More Plus plans are way cheaper than the contract plans (because TMob doesn't have to subsidize your phone).

The seller states this phone could be used anywhere in the world that has cell phone companies & towers for their customers to place a call. This is what I understood when I researched this phone from the seller. I also went online to look up the best type of unlocked phone. I needed to know what an unlocked cell phone meant to me not having to buy a new phone every two a more years. It is important to do your research on the type of unlocked cell phone & its features and to purchase a good insurance to cover your purchase. These type cell phones are pretty expensive & you want to protect your investment. I also need to mention not all of the sellers on Amazon has a return policy, so buyer beware of that as well. If you are still uncertain about purchasing this unlocked cell phone, it might be a good time to reach out to the seller and ask questions you can do that right online at Amazon. I also suggest that you go online & look up this particular cell phone. The features do not change because it is an unlocked cell phone. Moreover, it is important that you understand the status/features of an unlocked phone. It's important to know if it operates on both 4G/3G, 4G only or 3G only networks who the cell phone carriers or carrier that you will be getting service tthrough. And, whether or not it can be use with multiple different cell phone carriers. This Samsung Galaxy Note I I I can. Some of these unlocked cell can work on two different cell carriers network, which gives you a lot of options because not under a contract for your unlocked cell phone. I am not an expert, but knowing what that means can help you with your purchase. I hope this helped.

This is not being sold as prepaid. Only a call to Verizon can tell you for sure. The term "no contract" in this case means only that we do not supply service only the phone.

as long as I have a SIM card that is valid and fits the phone, no difference. a no contract is like an ATT go Phone, or walmarts NET 10. you don't sign a contract and you pay as you go,

I believe it means that you're not purchasing the phone with a two year contract, that it's just the phone. I have Sprint, and every phone I've purchased has always said NO CONTRACT and I've always been able to take it to Sprint and have them transfer my Account to it.

Good question- I called the service center for AT&T.; From what I understood, I don't think, AT&T; has a 'no contract service' for this phone.

Oh & I see someone says it let's your phone go between 3g and 4g this phone will not go beyond 2g. I brought the $90 unlimited plan and it still ran on 2G only

None what-so-ever. It can only be used to replace a defective unit for a service previously entered into. Verizon no longer offers the 3GB service, but if you have it, keep it because it's unlimited monthly useage. You don't get those deal anymore.

You can use it on a normal post-paid shared data-only plan as well, if you like. Either way, get your SIM from Verizon. There's also been a firmware update in the last few months to support the newer Verizon LTE technologies (what's now branded as "XLTE," I believe). In some cases this should get you better or faster performance - partly due to mitigating network congestion.

Unlimited talk and text, but only 1GB of data. You have to watch your data really close. I have had an entire month without data. I don't know why, but it has upset me.

I was able to get a phone plan from AT&T with no data plan. But that was many years ago. I don't know what the carriers would demand now. Good luck! Dave H.

Yes you can. However I never got a chance to use it. I had unlimited on my old 3g one. But they would not transfer the unlimited plan to the new device. Go to a Verizon store and they will advise you on all of your options.Hope this helps!

I suggest u contact verizon first..not all smartphones require a contract. especially the 3g jobs
