Comparing Bluetooth TracFones Within the last 6 months, TracFone has released two new Bluetooth-enabled phones - the Motorola w376g, and the LG 600G. If you want to buy your first TracFone, or if you are considering an upgrade to your existing phone, you should consider both of these models. However, each phone has specific advantages, and which phone is best for you depends on how you will use the phone most. I've used both phones and reviewed them extensively on my blog . Here, I am going to lay out the pros and cons of each model for you, in order to make the choice easier. In the following slides, I'll go over the positives about both phones, the advantage that each phone has over the other, and then wrap it up with a summary of which type of users might be inclined to select each phone.

Summary If you’ll use your phone primarily as a basic phone, and are not concerned with extra games, lots of texting, and taking many pictures, I recommend the Motorola w376g because of its superior sound quality and lower price.

But if you text more than you talk, if you’ll take a lot of pictures and you’ll want to get them off your phone cheaply, or if you want to create your own ringtones then, the LG 600g may be the better choice for you.
