Wouldn’t it be nice to buy a phone for the price of almost nothing? It seems impossible these days, with inflation taking a toll on our finances. But Cricket Wireless, a subsidiary of AT&T, is making it happen with a limited-time offer that could put a new phone in your hands without breaking the bank. 

Starting and ending today, November 7, the mobile carrier is giving you a chance to get a top phone for free or at a major discount when you open a new line on their $60 Unlimited Plan. You'll want to hurry and grab the offer before it expires.

Cricket Wireless wants to give you a free phone

Usually, when companies advertise a price or service, hidden fees can turn what looked like a great deal into something far more expensive. But Cricket Wireless’ flash deal is among the few transparent ones worth considering. You’ll have a selection of free phone models to choose from, including the Moto g 5G (2024), Moto g power 5G, Samsung A14 5G, and Samsung A15 5G. 

If you want a serious upgrade, the Moto G Stylus 5G is just $30, and the Samsung A54 5G is $50. It’s the perfect opportunity to save while switching to a new phone. Here's an overview of all the phones up for grabs:

Free phones 

Samsung Galaxy A15 5G – From $0 (Original Price $159.99).
Samsung Galaxy A14 5G – From $0 (Original Price $159.99).
Moto G Power 5G (2024) – From $0 (Original Price $159.99).
Moto G 5G (2024) – From $0 (originally $115).

Discounted phones


Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) – From $29.99 (Original Price $229.99)
Samsung Galaxy A54 5G – From $49.99 (Original Price $409.99)

Cricket is also giving away an Apple iPhone 12 at $199.99, down from $629.99. Outside the deal, you may pay as low as $10 a month with Affirm if squeezing out the full payment is a challenge. 

No contracts, no credit checks

When you order a free phone from Cricket Wireless, you won’t have to pay for shipping, and your order will arrive within two business days. Also, you're not required to sign a long-term contract when you choose the service. So, you can cancel at any time without facing penalties or being locked into a commitment for a year or more.

Plus, the carrier doesn't subject you to a credit check when signing up. It makes it easier for you to switch from your current carrier. There are no worries about poor or no credit histories that could get you denied based on your credit score. The best part of it all is access to a high-speed 5G network.

Note: Cricket Wireless' free phone deal is not available everywhere. Check local coverage on their official website to ensure that you qualify. Also, use their coverage map to check if you have 5G support in your area. You'll enter a specific ZIP code to confirm whether there is 5G and 4G LTE coverage available.
