Overview - Carriers

Standard cell-phone service, involving a bill at the end of the month, oers smart

phones at a lower price but usually requires a contract. Prepaid service, either pay-as-you-go or with a monthly alloca-

tion, is usually contract-free but oers a more limited, and generally pricier, selection of phones.
