Straight Talk GSM vs CDMA Reviews

By


The Straight Talk Company

In my opinion, I feel that the Straight Talk company as a brand and as a service to customers is the best. They have the best prepaid plans which are great for minimum talk users and maximum talk users. One of them is the $30 plan which provides 1000 minutes, 1000 text messages and 30 MB of internet usage, and the other plan is the $45 plan which is unlimited talk, text, and web. They provide a way to save money in this time where it is very little to do so. Straight Talk offers two different kinds of network technology for the customers to choose. It is GSM or CDMA. GSM stands for Global System for Mobile Communications and CDMA stands for Code Division Multiple Access . Both are very different and has it disadvantages and advantages. If you don't know by GSM is used by AT&T and T-Mobile and CDMA is used by Verizon and Sprint. Which one has the best network technology in your opinion?

Straight Talk GSM Phones

In my opinion, Straight Talk GSM are very neat and provides a way for customers to enjoy great service and to save their numbers to their sim card if they choose to. GSM technology has been used for years and there are a lot of people that use this technology on their phones, so most people would choose these kind of phones and they are affordable as well on the Straight Talk service. You can choose from manufacturers of LG, Motorola, and Samsung which are trusted brands and it is the same for CDMA phones. I feel there are disadvantages though from using GSM such as dropped calls and low signal on the phones at times. Don't get me wrong on both networks you may experience dropped calls but in my opinion GSM has the most. I have used both kinds of networks and GSM is good but not great. There are some people that will say they are the best and some that will say it is the worst. It is your choice and it really depends on where you live as well.

Straight Talk CDMA Phones

In my opinion, Straight Talk CDMA phones are the best because they pick up in further places than GSM. They have popular styles of phones and they last the longest as far as durability and service on the phone itself. CDMA technology has been out for awhile as well but I have seen recently that everyone is primarily switching to CDMA phones because of those reasons I explained. People I have talked to that have Straight Talk CDMA phones have told me they hold up longer as far as durability and they have very good signal on the phones. There are some disadvantages also like if you wanted to transfer your numbers, you will not be able to because there is no sim card and sometimes the network get congested and you cannot make a call out but that rarely happens. Both networks experience problems getting congested at times because it may be so many people trying to make a call or connect to the internet or even text. So which one is better in your opinion??
