Following are some of the most trusted providers of prepaid phones in the year 2018.

MetroPCS
MetroPCS is a great choice to opt for because of the ease that it comes with.

Firstly, you do not need to undertake an annual contract, which is a huge plus. Secondly, the rates come with taxes included and there is provision for Wi-Fi calling, 3-way calling, caller ID, and even call waiting. The data maximizer is another reason why MetroPCS is one of the most efficient providers for prepaid phones. They have four different plans, available for $30, $40, $50, and $60 respectively offering different data bandwidths and calling minutes. Figure out your requirement and take a call accordingly.

Boost Mobile
Be it a single line on a plan or five different lines added to an individual plan, Boost Mobile is the best choice for prepaid phone providers. For single lines, they have four different plans costing $50, $35, $60, and $80 respectively. However, most users recommend the family plan where you may have four different connections starting at $120/month. Most of these plans offer unlimited gigs when it comes to data, calling, and texting and are completely affordable.

Republic Wireless
Republic Wireless offers a particular plan known as My Choice Plan which gives you unlimited texting and calling facilities for only $15. You may add high-speed cell data (LTE) for $5, which may be added and removed as per your convenience. The plans are so affordable that you would not need to look any further for prepaid plans.

GoSmart Mobile
If you do not require internet too much and just need a phone for calling, then go for the most basic plan that GoSmart has to offer. This provider offers unlimited talking and texting at only $15/month. There are other plans offered at $25, $30, and $45 respectively. At $55/month, you will get unlimited texting, calling, and data browsing on 3G speed. However, this provider does not support 4G speed.

The plans mentioned above might get upgraded. Before choosing a plan, determine your phone requirements in terms of call durations, messaging, and internet usage. Then carefully check what each plan has to offer and buy only what you need; don’t get carried away by plans that promise a lot.
