Freedom 2010 Phone is a small pre-paid
phone that allows travellers, as well as
everyday users, the ease of making and
receiving calls with no hassle.
It can be frustrating when our mobile phones
fail to work overseas. The Freedom 2010
Phone has been designed as a solution for
travellers who are unable to use their mobile
phones overseas, or for those who would only
require the basic functions of a phone. The
Freedom 2010 Phone is essentially a small
pre-paid phone that is unique in design and
function. It focuses on ease of use and on
having the most basic of functions – to make
and receive calls.
Upon arriving in a new country, the user has
the option of purchasing the Freedom 2010
Phone with a pre-paid value of 60, 100 or 200 minutes of talk time. There is no need to
insert SIM cards or remember extra prefixes
for international calls. As the call is made from
the location itself, there would be no roaming
charges incurred. Charging only requires ten
minutes. The phone number, important service
information and other details are located on the back of the phone. One of the best advantages of the Freedom 2010 Phone is its size. It is the perfect solution for travellers, as it avoids the hassle of lugging existing models on trips.
The Freedom 2010 Phone exemplifies the need for very simple devices in the market. This phone is well-suited to the elderly, most of whom are not tech-savvy, as well as those
who do not require advanced and complicated
devices. |
