Buying a new phone is lots of fun, for the most part, anyway. Just imagine opening the box, taking your shining dream phone out and then having hours of pure joy of testing and experimenting. Even buying used or refurbished devices is a very pleasant experience. However, there’s one very important step you have to take before you can start using your phone – the handset must be activated or else you won’t be able to do a thing. This is how you can active your phone on Verizon.

The launch of any flagship smartphone is a pretty exciting event for every smart technology enthusiast, but some phones are more anticipated than others. That’s the case with the Moto Z Droid which went official last month at Lenovo Tech World event. The manufacturer kept the release date a secret, but luckily, this time we didn’t have to wait long.

LG may not launch as many smartphones per year as Samsung, but there’s certainly no shortage of LG-branded handsets. The company’s signature G-series of premium devices dates back to 2012 and each generation comes in several variants. There’s also the relatively new V lineup which also includes high-end and therefore pretty expensive phones.

A year ago two-year contracts were the most popular form of getting a new smartphone. Not any more, though. T-Mobile was the first network to move away from lengthy agreements. It took other carriers a few years to do the same but finally, last year, Verizon removed contracts from its offer and AT&T will do so in a couple of days. At the moment Sprint is the only carrier that still offers two-year contracts but it’s just a matter of time until they disappear from this service provided as well.
One of the best things about agreements was that, thanks to subsidized prices, they allowed you to get a high-end phone at a pretty affordable cost or even for free. There are, however, a few interesting options to buy a new cheap phone now that long-term contracts are gone.
The first member of LG’s new V-series of high-end phones went official in early October.

Last week HTC announced its latest addition to the One series – the A9 and promised that it will work on all US major carriers. At the moment, only AT&T, T-Mobile and Sprint models are available for pre-order but it doesn’t mean that the company somehow forgot about Verizon customers. Not at all. They will just have to wait a little bit longer, since the HTC One A9 Verizon variant will hit the stores in December.
A couple of days ago Motorola and Verizon announced two new members of the Droid family of smartphones – the Droid Turbo 2 and Droid Maxx 2, both dedicated exclusively Verizon Wireless network. The companies promised that it wouldn’t be long until users would be able to buy the phones and they kept their promise. The Droid Turbo 2 and Droid Maxx 2 are now on sale via Verizon online store.
Earlier this month we speculated of the Moto X Force to hit Verizon Wireless network as the Droid Turbo 2. Recently leaked materials confirm our earlier assumptions while bringing to the table new details of the upcoming handset. Said to be a true flagship smartphone in terms of specs, the Motorola Droid Turbo 2 would be available via Verizon stores in October.
When two weeks ago Verizon Wireless added the affordable HTC Desire 526 to its portfolio, we knew that it wouldn’t be the only Desire phone launched by the carrier this quarter. Sure enough, Verizon doesn’t waste words. As promised, the Big Red network is now selling the HTC Desire 626 dedicated to HTC One M9 fans who don’t have too much money to spend.
HTC has bold plans to introduce few mid-tier Desire smartphones to the States across every major carrier. It’s not a big surprise then that Verizon Wireless has just added two new Desire handsets to its list of offerings. The HTC Desire 526 is now on sale via the carrier’s store labeled with an affordable price tag of $89.99, the Desire 626 will be available in coming weeks. So, if you’re looking for a cheap Android smartphone with decent specs running on Verizon network, both phones should be on your radar.
