Win a Tracfone Motorola W175 and 120-minute Card!Enter our first Prepaid Cell Phone Writing Contest to win a Tracfone Motorola W175g bundle and a 120-minute Airtime Card. The contest ends on October 27, 2008.Now back to the phones . . . Flip PhonesThe Motorola Tracfones all have a "C", “V” or a "W" in front. Among the flip phone, we’ve owned a V170 the last couple of years, and it seems pretty reliable.W376g Tracfone's first Bluetooth-enabled phone also has a camera. See the full review . This phone combines a lot of features and offer double minutes for life as well. W370 When first introduced last year, this was the most stylish of the bunch. It looks a little like a Razr. The external alert icons means you don’t have to flip it open to find out you been texted. On the other hand, other Tracfones have a different ring for text messages versus phone calls. One big plus is the lack of a pointy antenna sticking out. Maybe this is because it’s slightly larger than the other flip phones. No camera, but it does have a calendar, which is missing from the C261. W260g The W260g is compact basic flip style phone with Crystal Talk Voice enhancement. Review. V60iApparently discontinued. This basic flip phone is a little more stylish than the V176 and V170. No fancy features, but will do the job. One plus: a big phonebook – you can store up to 500 numbers. However if you’re planning on calling that many people, then you’re probably better off with a standard cell phone plan, not a prepaid plan.V176 Small reliable basic Tracfone with a slightly larger screen than the old V170. V170 Reliable (we have one) basic flip phone with a small color screen. This is a slight nuisance when you read text messages or use the calculator. Good phone otherwise, though. Open-Face PhonesThese Motorola Tracfone models all have the "C" or "W" designation.C261 The first camera phone offered by Tracfone. The camera works pretty well, with some issues. To share your pictures or just get them out of the phone, you have to message them to your email account, which costs you airtime. This is true for all the camera phones. The screen is nice, though, after a year of use, it does get a little dusty. W175g he W175 is an open face style basic phone which features a long battery life and Crystal Talk voice enhancement. Review. C139 Their most basic phone, usually offered for $14.99 or less at retail stores. Refurbished ones are available “free” online if you buy $20 worth of airtime, and they throw in another $20 airtime card in as well. It does the job and seems to be reliable. Plus when it breaks down, you won’t have any qualms about dumping or recycling it. C155 Probably a decent phone, but the look of it annoys me. The screen area has a lot of wasted space around it, and the circular menu button with the up, down, left, and right arrows is too small. C343Note the protruding antenna, this is the only non-flip-style to have this. May cause problems.
