Sometimes sticking to the basics and fundamentals matters the most and this is what Cricket has come up with by announcing the availability of Samsung’s new entry-level phone, namely the SCH-r211, on their network. Samsung mobile phones and Samsung accessories definitely seem to be on a roll!
Samsung SCH-r211 is not a surprise introduction as such as we have already seen how Samsung Spex, the basic phone got introduced last year by Cricket. Both the phones have got an impressive candy bar slide form factor along with basic phone functionality.
The only connectivity option available is support for Cricket’s Advanced Wireless Services (AWS), which indeed makes room for access to ringtones; wallpapers, and other downloadable applications from Cricket including Cricket Games and Apps. The SCH-r211 carries a price tag of $90 and you can pick one up from any Cricket outlets.
