Seems like a good deal for a new A51 but it would be nice if it came with an annual 1200 plan. Seriously thinking about ordering one even though I just got a new A21.

I agree. Is it worth to wait for A51 with 1200plan for the same price?

This was already $90 at HSN a few weeks ago, and it came with a year of service. Y'all missed it.

CDMA = Sprint
SomethIng to consider about T-Mobile's transition for Sprint.

https://www.t-mobile.com/news/bus...tion-plans

We have made the decision to extend our deadline for the CDMA sunset by three months to March 31, 2022.

* I have a couple TracFone plans (at&t, Verizon and T-Mobile).

* I thought TracFone lets you choose whoever you want with at&t, Verizon, T-Mobile and Sprint.... Why is CDMA in the title? Locked to Sprint coverage?

Tracfone uses Verizon for their CDMA phones. Not Sprint.

I do remember all 4 carrier services being offered by tracfone in 2020. I guess it has changed with t-mobile merger but sprint is still active with t-mobile/tracfone until March 2022 supposedly. T-Mobile and Tracfone aren't pushing Sprint for obvious reasons. It isn't dead yet but soon it will be.

Verizon is moving off CDMA and is using HD Voice LTE.

"On December 31, 2020, Verizon will begin moving all devices to the HD Voice LTE network. While the CDMA network will remain available as-is until that date, any service requests related to CDMA devices may receive limited support after the end of 2019."

With Verizon purchasing Tracfone, I wouldn't be surprised if they eventually stopped offering at&t and t-mobile coverage and only offered Verizon service in the future.

I bought one at Amazon because my LG Rebel 4 tracFone was fading in many ways. Awful reception and more. This A51 phone came charged at 18%. Before doing anything w/ it I plugged it in and charged it. Established it with my wifi. I let it update to android 11 which took 30 minutes. I already had tracFone minutes, so I transferred them to this new A51.

Android 11 is so much better than 8 which is what my LG Rebel was stuck on with no future updates. Plus with the A51 I can enable wifi calling to enhance reception in my house. LG Rebel 4 did not have this. I have not used the cameras yet, so cannot comment on them. Trac phones can be unlocked from their network after a year, I believe. Youtube and internet have more into on this.

Lastly - Caution -- This phone came out in late 2019. If I have this right, there will be no more updating of your Android version after 2023. Though Sammy will send security updates. This is why this phone price is half of what it was a few months ago, Plus that it is not 5G which I am not interested in any way.

What kind of network does Samsung Galaxy A51 use?
As per the FCC documents, the Galaxy A51 is a GSM/CDMA/WCDMA/LTE Phablet With BT/BLE, DTS/UNII a/b/g/n/ac, NFC and ANT+. There are four model variants of Galaxy A51 was mentioned in the FCC documents, SM-A515U1, SM-A515W, and SM-S515DL is electrically identical to Model SM-A515U.
........so after taking it off tracFone you have flexibility as to who to sign up with.
