It has been a decade since Samsung introduced the Galaxy series of phones. With time, their popularity has steadily increased across the globe. While Samsung remains a top technology brand, Galaxy is a term that has become synonymous with quality smartphones. Samsung’s Galaxy S3 and S4 were some of the first popular phones in this series.

In the year 2011, Apple released iPhone 4S, the first “S” model series. Since then, the multinational technological company has released an S model of every phone that it has launched. Now, every time Apple launches a new version of the iPhone, the S model variation is released as well within 12 months.

The rollout of fifth-generation (5G) communication technology is still in its early stages. And there’s still some time before you can expect nationwide coverage of 5G connectivity. However, that hasn’t stopped top smartphone brands from launching new 5G phones. Since the launch of Samsung’s S20 series, major players are introducing flagship 5G-compatible models even in the early stages of this technology.

The era of 5G tech was kickstarted in 2019, and new 5G phones are the next generation of mobile technology. The existing 4G tech is not going to be phased out any time soon, as there are no expectations of 5G completely replacing 4G. Nonetheless, the new technology brings in higher speed, faster connectivity, and tons of possibilities to enable drones, self-driving vehicles, and Internet of Things (IoT).

Technological advancements have brought us incredibly powerful, sleek cellphones capable of various tasks at incredible speeds. However, senior citizens tend to prefer cellphones that offer basic functionality and maximum durability at an affordable price. Keeping these points in mind, major networks like AT&T have partnered with mobile manufacturers to bring seniors the following pocket-friendly cellphones and plans.

Apple’s latest flagship smartphones have generated quite the buzz. The all-new A15 chip makes the smartphone incredibly fast, and the enhanced battery life ensures longer connectivity. The iPhone 13 and 13 Mini are available in (PRODUCT) RED, Starlight, Blue, Pink, and Midnight finishes. The 13 Pro and Pro Max are available in Graphite, Gold, Silver, and Sierra Blue colors.

Purchasing a new smartphone can be a difficult task. The market is flooded with multiple options. Some phones might have a superior camera but subpar battery life, while others may come with long-lasting batteries but mediocre features. Moreover, new phones are released every few months. These phones quickly become a must-have product for all.

Choosing a cell phone plan today is nothing short of a hassle, with dozens of providers offering services on 4G and 5G enabled networks. Our advice is to always choose a no-contract service that can be easily canceled at any time. This step is especially suitable for seniors who are on the lookout for basic and affordable services.
