Advice for Buying a Smartphone for Your Child

Image
Many parents feel the benefits of giving their child a smartphone outweigh the concerns, especially once your school-going child is a little older and able to use the device responsibly. But what mobile is a good option? Here are some tips from TeleChoice, providers of refurbished phones along with competitive mobile data plans and the best SIM only deal in Australia. New or Refurbished Phones? If you don’t have an old mobile that’s suitable for your child, you may want to get them a new device. Most parents, however, don’t want to spend a lot on their kid’s mobile. After all, it’s more likely to get lost, damaged or stolen. While getting the latest flagship mobile from a top brand like Samsung or Apple may win you lots of brownie points in the short term, it’s important to consider refurbished phones too, as they have a lot of benefits for parents. They’re much more affordable, there’s a great range of mobiles (including flagship models that are still very competitive), and sinc...

Your Guide to BYO Mobile Phone Plans

Image
BYO mobile phone plans , also called SIM only plans, are a popular way to access a mobile network affordably and easily! Here are some insights into this type of cheap mobile plan to see if it’s the right fit for you. What is a BYO Mobile Phone Plan? These are SIM only plans. Instead of signing a contract for 12, 24 or 36 months and getting new mobile on your plan, you just get a SIM card that will connect you to your provider’s network. These SIM only plans come with their own data allocations, perks and more, depending on the network. Why Choose a BYO Mobile Phone Plan? A SIM only plan has a lot of benefits! You don’t have to pay the cost of a new mobile (an important benefit as smartphone costs are on the rise) and you aren’t locked in to a contract. At TeleChoice, our SIM only plans aren’t just a cheap mobile plan – they come with great data allocations and savings options, and you can cancel any time you want with no penalty. It’s a great, commitment-free option! Who is th...

Why is it Cheaper to Buy a New Smartphone Outright?

Image
Wanting the best value for money when you buy a new mobile phone ? You should consider buying outright mobiles rather than getting a new mobile on a plan . Here’s why it’s cheaper!  What’s the Difference and Where are the Savings?  When you buy a mobile on a plan, you do get a lot of value for your money. Depending on the telco provider you get the plan from, you can get all sorts of perks – access to 5G, free texts and calls, and affordable data each month. It’s a bit like leasing a car – you can use the phone as much as you want for work, entertainment, leisure, etc, but you are bound contractually to the telco until your contract is up. When you have a mobile on a plan, you can switch out the SIM if you want to use another provider, but you’ll have to keep up your payments with your original telco until the contract is finished. At this point (after 12 or 24 months, depending on your contract), you then own the mobile outright.  It’s a good option fo...

To Buy A Samsung or To Buy An iPhone…

Image
To buy a Samsung or to buy an iPhone , that is the question. With such a crowded market when it comes to buying a new phone , it can be really hard to know where to even start. So we thought we’d start with two of the giants on the market and put together a blog about the pros and cons of buying either a Samsung or iPhone. Why buy a Samsung? To start with, if you are on a budget, you should buy a Samsung. Samsung models are always cheaper than iPhones. At the end of the day, you’re paying for the logo on the back of an iPhone. And that’s fine. But Samsung phones are excellent and in many ways the technology is superior. The cameras take better photos and the way in which the software operates is, in many ways, better and more versatile than Apple’s iOS. There are also a wider range of Samsung models on the market when you’re looking for your new phone. If you want to buy a Samsung, you’ll be able to find one which suits your budget, no matter how much money you want to spend per mo...
