Vodafone Prepaid Mobile Phones Plans - Reviewed

I used to be skeptical on why mobile phone service providers always revert to providing old mobile phone models whenever it comes to prepaid plans. I have recently jumped to my own conclusion that this is perhaps due to two big reasons; one is being the plans are not that popular in Europe countries and another factor is there is no plausible string attached between the prepaid mobile phone users and the mobile phone service provider like contract-based mobile phone plans. In other words, the users can easily flee with the mobile phone from the mobile phone service provider and switch to another service provider or port server. That would be just not the way to survive in the business and certainly a disadvantage to the service provider. The usual game is also played by Vodafone in Australia when it offers a series of Vodafone prepaid mobile phones.

There are four different sets of prepaid plans offered by Vodafone but we will try to make a brief explanation here about only two of them. If you are a serious user of mobile phone and you just love to talk, then I believe the best option for a talkative person like you would be the Talker Plan. The Talker Plan is just the perfect one for a chatty user and with just $20 a month for standard calls and text-ing (SMS), as well as paying only 20c a call for a twenty-minute of Vodafone to Vodafone calls within Australia, the plan is a breeze.

The Vodafone Talker Plan also includes some options for you to choose to gain access to over thirty mobile TV channels. Not to mention access to over seven hundred thousands of music tracks. These options allow you to pay slightly extra amount to gain live access to these value-added services. Well now if we talk about the mobile phones provided with this prepaid plans, I’ll vote for the Nokia 1650 mobile phone. Why? Because I like bar-typed mobile phone better than any other type of mobile phones. I don’t have to worry about having some kind of technical issues with my prepaid mobile phone, for example if I use a slide version, I might have to face some problem whenever I slide the mobile phone and the screen goes blank. Same goes to flip version.

The Nokia 1650 is only $59 when you purchase it with the prepaid mobile phone Talker Plan. As styled as it looks, the mobile phone is just so practical and designed to fuel your mobile lifestyle. A perfect one for a chatty person since the cost to call someone and talk to that person for hours could be cheaper than you can imagine. The cost might be higher if you chose the other prepaid mobile phone plan which is Texter Plan. We will go to that later in our discussion here about Vodafone Australia prepaid mobile phones plans.

Now let us go and discuss about another prepaid mobile phone plan offered by Vodafone Australia. The prepaid plan is going to cost you $20 as well but for just that amount, you will get a lot of advantages whenever you text someone. The cost is significantly cheaper but it will cost you more if you pick up the mobile phone and call someone. Call rate would be somehow higher if you choose the prepaid Texter plan from Vodafone. In other words, if you are someone who really like to keep your budget under tight control and if you prefer texting a lot more to calling, then this prepaid mobile phone plan is most likely to be your best bet.

If you are concern about getting access to mobile television channels, you do not have to worry about this package though. You can still get access to all that including hundreds of thousands music tracks if you are willing to pay extra dollars. However, just like what I mentioned before, if you have a restricted budget especially when it comes to mobile phone usage, you might not be so concern about this value-added feature.

Do you know that you can get a Nokia 2760 at only $79 if you choose the Vodafone prepaid mobile phone Texter plan? Well, that sounds like a good deal right. This simple and modern-look prepaid mobile phone is equipped with camera as well as FM radio. I wonder though why they only offer one color for this prepaid mobile phone which is Smokey Grey. However, with this prepaid mobile phone, larger user memory is available and therefore it will be easier for you to store more photos and images. You can also keep more MP3 mobile phone ringtones in the mobile phone as well as more entries can be kept in the phonebook.

Don’t get me wrong but this prepaid mobile phone is 2.5G mobile phone which means it will not work for 3G communication. Just for your information, 2G stands for second-generation mobile phone where these types of mobile phones are capable enough to make voice calls, texting, and also voicemail. When you add another 0.5 to it, it really is a next real step up between 2G and 3G mobile networks. In simple English, it means 2.5G mobile phones has enhanced features such as navigation, music, file downloads and mobile email. You can also surf the web using these 2.5G mobile phones.

I prefer to have a 2.5G mobile phone as well as 2G mobile phones. Why? Because these type of mobile phones are safer to be used by beginners like me. It is also better for those who only use mobile phone for making calls and texting others. As for me, if I want to surf the web, I prefer to use my desktop computer; what I’m trying to say is I like bigger screen or monitor, and I love to be in control with everything on the web. So surfing from a mobile phone has never crossed my mind. It might be useful though if we are talking about smartphone like T-Mobile G1 android.

Now let us go and discuss about another prepaid mobile phone plan offered by Vodafone Australia. If you are a night owl or perhaps you just love catching up with your friends and colleagues after dark, then I recommend you to choose the Night Talker prepaid mobile phone plan. This prepaid plan is made exclusively for that kind of purpose and you can choose either to take Nokia 1650 mobile phone or Nokia 2760 mobile phone with the prepaid plan.

Another plan that is worth to be considered is the 365 Days Prepaid Plan. Just like any other prepaid plans offered by Vodafone Australia, this particular prepaid plan also comes with $20 credit to use on standard talk and texting. The only special feature of this plan is that the credit purchased is valid for one whole year. In other words, you can always reload your mobile phone anytime you want but if you decided not to make any call or text anyone, this will be the right prepaid plan to choose. Maybe you are just someone who just want to make sure someone can always keep in touch with you all the time without you reaching out to them back lol.

Now how about we take a peek at how valuable it is if you choose more expensive mobile phone to use together with your chosen prepaid plan. You can take Nokia 6500 Classic prepaid mobile phone. As the name implies, its classic elegant design is compact and it comes with camera. This prepaid mobile phone can be used for 3G communication and browsing the net. The mobile phone is also equipped with one gigabytes of internal memory which is huge enough for you to keep your media files such as MP3 or 3GP videos.

The Nokia 6500 Classic prepaid mobile phone from Vodafone also has etched aluminum casing and the mobile phone is only 9.5mm thick. Just like what I said before, the mobile phone is a 3G mobile phone where it means you can make video calls. But that will also mean that if you want to make a video call, the other person on the other line must also use a 3G mobile phone.

3G mobile phones are excellent choice for you if you love to see the person you call live on the screen. These 3G mobile phones are also perfect for families members to keep in touch with each other because instead of ‘hearing a smile’, it certainly a relief to ‘see the smile’.

Another 3G prepaid mobile phone from Vodafone is the Samsung G800 mobile phone. With this sleek camera mobile phone, you can capture detailed pictures since it comes with a 5 megapixel camera. The camera is auto focus and it can be optically zoomed three times. I am very fond with larger screen, and therefore this mobile phone might be the best one to choose if I were to purchase a mobile phone plan from Vodafone. The screen is quite large, it’s 2.4 inches QVGA 256K color display. Bluetooth 2.0 is supported as well as A2DP support.

There is also another great mobile phone which is Samsung M110. This prepaid mobile phone from Vodafone is only $199 and this mobile phone is suitable for those who has active and outdoor lifestyle. The Samsung M110 is so far one of the toughest mobile phone on the market since it is dust-protected and splash-proof water resistant; of course, these special features are certified. Therefore the mobile phone should be your choice if you have a rugged lifestyle as it can stand up to the rough and tumble while at the same time, it provides you with all the conveniences you want of the modern world.

All in all, you can also purchase your own mobile phone and then later you can purchase the prepaid plan from Vodafone. Don’t worry about the price though, you will get the same deal though you bought your mobile phone somewhere else. There are more prepaid mobile phones offered at Vodafone so I recommend that if you are looking for a great service and the best deal on mobile phone, you might want to check out these great offers.

Happy New Year 2009.
