It appears as though Net10 is getting ready to launch another Android handset for its $45 monthly unlimited plan. As with most smartphones we’re seeing prepaid carriers add, this is a 2011 model. That allows the carrier to offer the handset at a reasonable price, but it also means getting a handset behind the times. Still, the Galaxy S2 does have a dual-core processor, so it’s ahead of many other 2011 models hitting prepaid carriers. There is no word on pricing or release date, though Phandroid expects it to cost around $350. I’d bank on it being a bit cheaper; that’s a lot of hooch for a 2011 model. ]]>

I am really impressed with Net10 and the current prepaid model in general. I remember getting my first cell phone ever-a Nokia 1100 on Net10. Now they’ve got these smartphones and BYOD programs. I never would have thought this could happen, but I’m glad it is. I currently have a Motorola w175g on Tracfone. I am in the process of getting a new job. I think I might treat myself to a nicer Net10 phone.
