June 2013: Best Phones on Smart Communications Postpaid Plans


Smart Communications has adjusted the contract prices for its smartphone offerings, which results in having a "free" phone at almost every price point. I say "free" since part of you monthly fee goes to paying for the phone. It would be more accurate to say that these phones are available with no cash out.
