Pocket Communications

Pocket Communications is joining MetroPCS to launch two low-end ZTE handsets - C78 and C79. The carrier will offer the devices to subscribers in its New England and Texas markets.

Here’s what you need to know about ZTE C78 and C79:

Both stylish and affordable options, the ZTE C78 and C79 are full-featured handsets that operate on AWS and PCS frequency bands and provide over 60MB of user memory for users who want to download games, ringtones and applications. The suite of features also includes Bluetooth capabilities and picture messaging. The ZTE C78 features a sleek design with a 2-inch backlit color display in a black and silver candy bar casing. The ZTE C79 is a clamshell phone equipped with a 1.3 Megapixel camera and an MP3 player with external music keys, a unique feature allowing users to listen to music and manage their playlists with ease.

In a nutshell, we’re talking about basic feature phones here that are good for taking and making phone calls and texting. If you need something more, move on — otherwise, if that’s exactly what you’re looking for – go for it. Just don’t tell we haven’t warned you about the limited feature set. ;)
