Cricket Adds ZTE Sonata 2 to Lineup

AT&T prepaid subsidiary Cricket Wireless recently added a new phone to its lineup, but I’m not even sure that it’s much worth mentioning. The ZTE Sonata 2 is a mildly under-powered entry-level device designed for people who want a smartphone, but don’t really care much about the quality. Running Android Kitkat 4.4 with a tiny battery this phone will be great for light users. 

Here are some of the specs on the device:

• Android Kitkat 4.4
• 1.2 GHz quad-core processor
• 1 GB memory
• 4 GB storage
• microSD card slot (up to 32 GB)
• QuickCharge battery (1,650 mAh)
• 5 MP rear camera
• 2 MP front camera
• 4G, GPS, Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity

The Sonata 2 is available right now from Cricket Wireless for the low price of $29.99. Which, for a smartphone, isn’t too bad. However, don’t be expecting anything super impressive from this little device, it’s mostly just made to function, judging by the specs.

Cricket Wireless has a number of plans ranging from $40 – $60 with unlimited talk and text as well as limited 4G data. Customers must pay a $25 activation fee when activating a new phone. For more information on Cricket Wireless, visit the website or check out our indepth review.
