Mobile or cellular phones are devices that are capable of making and receiving telephone calls. They do this using a radio link that covers a huge geographic area. The mobile phone operators allow devices to connect to a public telephone network by way of the cellular network. In modern times, many of these devices do more than send and receive calls. They can also access email, the Internet, Bluetooth, gaming, photography, applications and text messaging. Often these advanced devices are called smartphones.

The company sells a variety of basic and smartphones. These are not manufactured by them but different brands, including Casio, LG, Samsung, Motorola and Pantech. They also sell more advanced units and products by brands such as HP, HTC, Compaq, Apple, Sony Ericsson, Android, Windows and Palm.

Products can be purchased with an optional service contract. Though it is is not mandatory, it is often recommended because it lowers the price of the phone. For example, without a contract a phone will sell at a general retail price that can be as high as $900 or as low as $100. With a contract, this price is hundreds of dollars cheaper and may even be free, depending on the device model.

Certified pre-owned devices are also available. These devices, though previously owned, are sent through inspection and reconditioning processes to ensure that they are in the best of conditions. If a pre-owned device shows defects within the first year of ownership, they will be replaced by Verizon. Typically, these are preferred because they come at a lower cost than brand new units.

There is also a trade-in program. This program allows customers to trade in their old devices for a value that can be applied to the purchase of a newer device. It is recommended that all new units are insured with equipment insurance. This protects the customer from fees related to replacing or fixing lost, stolen or broken devices that are no longer under warranty.
