No, you’re not going to find all the latest features on this phone. But it’s a slim candybar — 0.5 inches deep. It’s got a 128 x. 128 color screen. And, uh, that’s about it. It boasts full SMS capabilities, but I’m not even going to go into that right now.

“Introducing the Cricket EZ into Cricket’s handset line-up broadens our range of entry-level devices, providing our customers more choices when selecting a phone that best suits their lifestyle and budget,” said Sergio Garcia, director of device strategy for Cricket. “The Cricket EZ is a low-cost, user friendly device that offers the essential features value-seeking customers are looking for.”

So no, you’re not going to go impressing your iPhone-toting friends with this, but it is a simple, stripped-down model that will allow you to perform the essentials: make and receive calls, send and receive text messages. Honestly, I’m sometimes sad we’re past those times.

Its yours for a mere $49.99, which halves Cricket’s lowest-priced phones.

   Well, Some people don’t have the money for a nice phone, and we can only afford so much.

   I need a phone under $100 and I don’t know where to look at all. I also need a phone that is either prepaide or it has a monthly plan. What am I supposed to do? Where am I suppose to look?
