Get the LG G6 for only $30 on Boost Mobile

The LG G6 maybe last year's flagship, but it can still hold its own with its modern design and more than capable hardware. Customers who are interested in this handset could consider purchasing it on Boost, who is offering the device for $30.

What's more, Boost Mobile will allow you to purchase a second LG G6 for $30 as well, making it the perfect gift for a significant other. The only conditions are that you will have to switch to Boost Mobile and activate your new device on a $50, $60 or $80 plan by January 7, 2019. As an added bonus you will get a Free Month if you add a line on the Unlimited Gigs Plan. This offer is only available in store.

The LG G6 features a 5.7-inch display, 32GB of internal storage with microSD, a dual (13MP+13MP) camera setup, a secondary camera for video calls, a 3300mAh battery and is powered by a Snapdragon 821 processor with 4GB of RAM.

Save $330 on an LG G6 at Boost Mobile

Save $330 on an LG G6 at Boost Mobile

Flagship smartphones can be very pricey these days, and its natural for users to consider last year's models for some extra savings when they purchase a new device. Sprint-owned MVNO Boost Mobile has an opportunity to purchase the LG G6 for $330 off its $600 list price.

The LG G6 features a 5.7 inch "FullVision" display with a 2880 x 1440 pixel resolution, 32GB of internal storage with optional microSD, a (13MP+13MP) dual camera setup, a secondary camera for video calls, a 3300mAh battery and is powered by a Snapdragon 821 processor with 4GB of RAM. The handset runs Android Oreo out of the box, and will more than likely get updated to Android Pie.

The handset is available in “Ice Platinum” and “Mystic White” and is also still eligible for Second Year Promise enrollment. You can extend your standard 1-year warranty to a full 24 months by registering your new G6 on LG's dedicated website.

If you purchase this handset from Boost Mobile, you could consider one of their plans which start at $35 a month, all the way up to $80 for “Ultimate Unlimited” service with “everything that matters”, including 40 gigs of mobile hotspot data.

Boost Mobile launches Coolpad Illumina Android Oreo Go edition smartphone

Boost Mobile has just announced its first Android Oreo Go edition smartphone, the Coolpad Illumina. While Android Go is set to receive quick updates like Android One smartphones, Android Go handsets belong to the low-end tier in terms of price and specs.

The Coolpad Illumina features a 5 inch display, 8GB of internal storage with microSD expansion, a 5 megapixel rear camera, a 2 megapixel front camera, a 2150mAh battery and a quad-core Snapdragon 210 processor with 1GB of RAM.

While the Coolpad Illumina does not aim to impress spec-wise, its a great option for someone in the market for a very cheap smartphone that runs a relatively new version of Android.
