Find the Best Cell Phone Provider
This website was created in order to give you a fair and balanced look at the different cell phone providers available. We have a detailed look at the big four networks, ones that we consider the best of the best. Before we begin with a breakdown of the major four, here is a look at some of the criteria we use in order to make our decisions.
Cell Phone Low Down
Here is a look at what information we are going to be looking at for each of the companies so that you can find a cell phone plan that matches your personality completely.
- Plans - Is there a family plan available? For some people, this is a very important question. Also, we are going to look at limited and unlimited plans when it comes to talk minutes, text messages or, more importantly these days, data usage.
- Coverage - Getting a great price means nothing if you can never use your phone to make a call or get on the Internet. This is another area we examine closely so that you can see which company is likely to give you best coverage no matter where you live.
- Phones - This is important for some and less important for others, but we want to look at the different smartphone options you'll have with the different companies. These days there isn't that much of a difference, but there are some things you should consider carefully before choosing a carrier.
- Customer Service - If you do happen to run into a problem, you want to make sure you can get help right away. Whether it is losing your voicemail password or the phone physically breaking somehow, being able to access customer service representatives in various ways - including online - is very important.
There are other criteria that we use to determine our list of best cell phone providers, but these are the basics that we use to get an idea of who is truly the best. After looking at these aspects of a company, we then delve into the many reviews that are available online, coming up with a good idea of what consumers really think of the companies.
With all of this information at our disposal, we have been able to put together a definitive list of the best cell phone carriers on the market today. While we do not have reviews of every single little company out there, our look at the big four will give you an idea on how to best spend your hard earned money.
Top Cell Phone Providers
Below, we have our top four picks so that you can easily find which cell phone service is going to be a perfect match for you personally. We have taken the time to carefully construct all the information you need to make a decision about which company to choose.
 #1 - VerizonVerizon Wireless has one of the largest networks in the United States, meaning there are fewer dropped calls. And now that you can get an iPhone with the Verizon network, many others are switching over. However, some may consider the prices a bit high, and the "unlimited" data usage may not be as unlimited as you think. |
#2 - SprintSprint is our number two pick because of all the different options they offer customers when it comes to plans. This means you can usually get something customized just for you and pay a low monthly rate. They also have a really strong network, with not that many problems with dropped calls for most people. |
#3 - AT&TThis company has been around for a long time, and they have made it one of their missions to take over the mobile market. With decent coverage and a decent price that is reasonable, AT&T is our second choice as a provider. Their customer service could be a little better, and the pricing structure is not the best. |
#4 - T-MobileOn the bright side, their prices are usually quite low and you do not need to sign a multi-year contract, but there are many who have reported problems with coverage as well as customer service. Because of this, T-Mobile is last on our list of best cell phone providers. |
