List of the Best Tracfone Cell Phones for 2021
Everyone wants to know, what is the best Tracfone device? Which cell phones are the best options from Tracfone? We have collected the information and now share the top options from Tracfone below.
As you might expect, this list is dominated by more expensive smartphones Tracfone has released over the last few years. But which one will receive the top pick? And where in the ranking do the rest of the phones fall?
If you would like to see all of our recent reviews, visit our Cell Phone Review page. Also keep up with new devices on our Latest Tracfone Cell Phone List.
We are judging this list of the best cell phones based primarily on features, specifications, and performance as well as feedback from consumers. Price and availability will only be small factors, as both of these variables change often.
Here's the our picks for the top Tracfone smartphones in 2021:
We expect Tracfone to continue to release several new Android and Apple smartphones in 2021, and will update as needed!
Now let's see the list!
Camera: 12 MP camera with OIS and 4K video up to 60 fps
Storage: 64 GB
Processor: A11 Bionic Chip
Operating System: Apple iOS
The iPhone 8 is our pick for the best phone from Tracfone at this time. It brings updates and upgrades to the iPhone lineup, including the new A11 Bionic hexa-core processing chip which results in better performance compared to older iPhone models.
You also get a 12 MP camera with 4K video recording, 2 GB RAM, 64 GB storage, iOS 11 and a 4.7" retina display. The iPhone 8 is also built with durability in mind with a strong, aluminum band around the outside, and it is water and dust resistant.
The iPhone 8 edges out the competition with Apple's well known performance and high quality screen, camera and app store.
The price may be the only drawback, at $374 currently on the Tracfone website.
Note that there are newer models of the iPhone available, including the iPhone 8 which is available from Tracfone, and the iPhone X which is not available from Tracfone at this time.
Choosing between Apple and Android is usually a matter of personal preference, as the operating systems differ quote a lot, and many users prefer to stick with one or the other.
Screen: 4.7" HD touchscreen
Camera: 12 MP iSight camera
Storage: 32 GB
Processor: A10 FUSION CHIP
Operating System: Apple iOS
The iPhone 7 is our pick for the next best phone from Tracfone at this time. It brings updates and upgrades to the older iPhone 6 with faster processor and improved camera..
You also get a 12 MP camera with 4K video recording, 2 GB RAM, 32 GB storage, iOS 10 and a 4.7" retina display.
Apple devices are well known for the combination of a great user experience and solid design. However, the iPhone 7 is a few years old, and it might be worth the money to go with the more expensive but newer iPhone 8.
The price may be the only drawback, at $239 currently on the Tracfone website. Note that there are newer models of the iPhone available, including the iPhone 8 which is available from Tracfone, and the iPhone X but it is not available from Tracfone at this time.
While it might not have some features, like a high-resolution screen, that more expensive phones have, it does have a powerful processor and the latest Android OS version which is very important.
Get the full specs and details, in our Moto G7 Optimo MAXX Review.
The smaller, Moto G7 Optimo has a 5.7" screen, smaller battery and a few other differences, but otherwise many of the same specs for those who don't want a device with such a large screen as the MAXX.
For those with Tracfone BYOP consider the unlocked Moto G7.
Camera: 13 MP Rear Camera with 5 MP Ultra-wide and 8 MP Front Camera with LED Flash, Autofocus
Storage: 32 GB
Processor: Octa-core (2x1.6 GHz Cortex-A73 & 6x1.35 GHz Cortex-A53)

Next in this list is the iPhone 6 Plus which is larger and more powerful compared to the iPhone 6, but also has a higher price. The iPhone SE has the same camera and internal specs, but a much smaller screen.
The 6S Plus comes with Apple iOS, a 5.5" HD touchscreen, 32 GB internal memory, dual core processor, 2 GB RAM and 12 MP camera.
While the specs are not impressive on paper, Apple devices are well known for their great performance due to their unique operating system and tailored processors. The 12 MP rear camera has excellent image quality and can record 4K footage at 30 FPS for high resolution videos.
The iPhone 6S Plus is currently listed on the Tracfone website for $189 which is a pretty good deal. There are also unlocked refurbished options available on Amazon for $148 (GSM compatible)
The iPhone SE actually has the same internal specs as the larger, iPhone 6S, and they were both released at the same time. The iPhone SE has a smaller, 4" screen, and originally retailed for $399, but the Tracfone website has it available for under $200.

With a 5.7" full HD touchscreen, Android 8.0 Oreo, 32 GB Storage, 3 GB RAM and Dual Rear Cameras, the G6 has a lot to like about it.

There are several online retailers offering the Moto G6, including Tracfone, HSN, eBay and more, but we found the Moto G6 on Amazon with airtime bundle.
The Moto G6 is a great value for the money and it can also be found unlocked and used with either GSM or CDMA service on Tracfone BYOP.
More Tracfone Smartphones to Consider:
That concludes our list of the Best Tracfone Cell Phones. For many, buying the S6, iPhone 6 Plus or S7 would be impractical because of the high cost and older release date, but these are the most high-end options available through Tracfone.

Any idea when/if the ZTE Majesty, z796c, might become available? It's CDMA, has a bigger screen, faster processor, and is Android 4.1. However, it's a bit more expensive.
Do you think any of these will compare to the LG L39?
I got the ZTE Valet in a holiday bundle. Wifi strength is abysmal. Makes it practically useless. I'm 15 feet from the router now, line of sight, and i get 1 bar. Seriously bad. Also, the mic stopped working so i had to send it back for replacement on Jan 8th. Today is Jan 31, and I'm STILL waiting for the replacement. Over 3 weeks later! Called multiple times. Tracfone is fine until you need service, then forget it. English is not their first language. I wish i would have gotten the Huawei Glory.
UPDATE: Got the new replacement Valet on Feb. 7th. WIFI is still horrible, but at least they extended my service date the 30 days I was out of a phone. BEWARE their service department...super slow! Would NOT buy the Valet, if I had a do over.
I'm looking for a phone that I could use with a SIM card when traveling in Europe or Asia, as well as with my home TracFone account. Can any of these phones do this?
Any tracfone works oversees apparently. Here is what is says on their website and the url.
Connect
From your TracFone, DIAL 1-800-706-3839.
From Alaska, Hawaii, and the U.S. Virgin Islands please dial 305-938-5673.
Select
Select your language (1-English, 2-Spanish). Listen to dialing instructions.
(Instructions can be interrupted at any time and you can skip to step 3).
Dial
DIAL 011 + country code + city code + telephone number.
(For Bahamas, Bermuda, Canada, and Dominican Republic just dial: 1 + city code + telephone number).
Note: Please wait to be connected; DO NOT press any other key on your TracFone or you might be disconnected.

I am pretty sure the answer is no. You can call overseas from the US, but you cannot call FROM overseas.
Agree completely, the headset went out on mine, so all my calls are speakerphone now. Really cheap piece of junk, and soooooo slow. I'm going to have to buy something different, this was a waste of money.
This sucks! Not the review. I want an Iphone 5s but tracfone doesnt have a plan for it! I mean, I like the pay as you go plan but still...
I got the LG Ultimate 2 a couple weeks ago based on your review and through one of your Ebay links. It is really great! Thanks for recommending it!
Any particular reason the LG Fuel didn't make the list? Way better on modernity and performance than anything from #4-#8 plus beats them on price if you shop right. Generally competitive with #2&3 except for screen size & ram (but wins on price there & easier to root as well.).
I have the Samsung Galaxy Centura. Wifi connectivity is very reliable. Phone audio clarity is good on calls with people 400 miles away...it sounds like a land line. Basic email and texting is adequate. That's where the features stop. Load up any apps, and the thing will slow to a crawl. Most of the loaded apps will crash randomly, probably due to Android 4.0 and the processor. Photos taken indoors are useless. Photos outdoors are decent.. For $30 it is a decent for phone calls, texting and email. I paid $99 at the time, not a good phone for that price. But it was the best, I could get then. I do love the value of tracfone service in general and I'm willing to sacrifice bells and whistles to meet the monthly budget. Now I want the best there is for tracfone. Thanks for the review.
It appears a new LG phone called "Power" is available for TracFone. Will you be reviewing it soon? LG Power 4.5" Android 5.0 Smartphone - 1.2 GHz Quad Core Processor -
http://www.ebay.com/itm/LG-Power-4-5-Android-5-0-Smartphone-w-1200-Minute-Te-xt-Data-Included-Tracfone-/151701302555?customid=16f4e30530cd40858b3a6342d36ff922&pub=5574652453&afepn=5337259887&campid=5337259887&icep_id=117&ipn=icep&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item23521a2d1b&afepn=5337259887&rmvSB=true
LG's website lists a new GSM LTE enabled phone for Tracfone. It is the LG Access LTE (L31L). Here is a link to the product
:
http://www.lg.com/us/cell-phones/lg-L31L-access-lte
When I click their "Where to Buy' button, it states 'Coming soon'. I've tried all the typical online retailers (eBay, Amazon, BestBuy) with no luck. Anyone know where, when this phone might be available? Also any details on how LTE works with Tracfone (cost, speed)?
HSN.com on sale for the day 7/24/2015.
I would really appreciate someone giving a review of the best sounding tracfone. That is, a tracfone where you can hear a person very clearly who is calling. I have owned the LG Optimus Dynamic and the LG Optimus Fuel and they are both horrible. Thank you.
Good reviews for best smartphone. Thanks to You.
I've got the LG L39 & have maxed the memory in nothing flat. Anybody care to suggest a TracFone with bigger memory please? LEO1WOLF@MSN.COM
I have an iphone 4s. Rolled over to BYOP. It would be awesome if it worked. Had busy signal calling in and out. After 8 hours of tech support, I looked at my account at the tracfone website and saw how to check minutes. After checking found out none had rolled over like Cust svc said they had. But before this someone in cust svc had the great idea of cancelling my old phone number that I had for years (fun letting everyone know). Finally got up and running, added the 1000 text, 500 talk, and 400 data, but last week noticed it wasn't working again. Busy signal. Checked balance and EVERYTHING was 0. I counted 25 text messages in and out on my phone. Cust svc said all they saw was 0, so the best they could do was 300 min.....but it still is not working. If they could get it to work, it would be great, but it is sure a bummer when you have over 1000 min/text/data and it is all of a sudden gone and you get no help.
I have a Samsung Centura that has been replaced twice and I still have the same problems--slow opening files, type several letters before one appears, freezes up, returns to home screen randomly, time randomly displays 5 hours previous, name of contact does not appear when ringing. Would not recommend this phone.
I have owned the Alcatel Onetouch Icon Pop for about a 1 yr now. I can not believe you rated it second. This phone is crappy. Read the reviews on it. Your internal memory is gone with adding a couple apps. You can put and SD card in which I have one. There is no way to save to the SD card .. You can not even back up the phone to the SD card. The camera is okay. All this phone is good for is making calls. Google puts so much of their stuff on it too. Alcatel says that it is tracfone's fault because they mess with the programming of the phone to put their stuff on it.. Meanwhile I spent a nice some on the phone.. If you want a calendar you have to download one. Then Google sinks all your contacts you have in google. Which for me was a lot of one time contacts.. I would not recommend this phone to anyone.
You can get it on AMAZON right now for around $40 and already on Tracfone. Sounds like it's not such a good buy even at $40. Sorry that you spent all that dough on a crappy phone
thanks, thinking of buying one, this review helped
I was given an iPhone 6 (I believe it's a 6s or 6+, not sure) from a relative who was upgrading, so I bought the SIM card kit for $1 at Best Buy, transferred my service over using my tracfone on-line account, and within 15 minutes, my new phone had been activated, ready for use! It was easy, and it's so much better. Stronger signal, clearer reception, and far more functionality. The iPhone was originally designed for the Verizon network, so i didn't need to have it unlocked, just slid in the new SIM card. Yes, all my unused minutes rolled right over too.
Can anyone comment on the LG Fiesta 5.5" 16GB TracFone GPS capability. Does anyone know if it has location service and can be used withgoogle gps on maps. That is the only thing I am unsure of and I'd like to order due to screen size, 16 gb and camera. Thanks for you help.
RobynFrance - Here is a link (couldn't find it online and finally contacted LG for the user manual) to the L64VL (Tracfone Fiesta): http://www.lg.com/us/support-mobile/lg-LGL64VL
Thank you for the link to the user manual--I'll check it out!--the phone is great--only issue I have is trying to get the microphone permanently on the keyboard--I have been forced to go thru a 2 step process to get to mike each time I use in messages and emails--is there a way to make a dedicated mike key on keyboard--have tried all I know to do.
If your rich, then those listed are number 1 through 5. Gimme a break!
Hello... Wondering what, in your opinion, gave the Samsung Galaxy J7 Sky Pro the #5-spot on this "List of Top 5 Tracfones" over others like the LG Fiesta or even the LG Fiesta 2. I'm not insinuating I disagree with your assessments in any way. I'm just interested in your conclusions and reasoning, Peter, along with everyone else's "two cents"... Thanks!
Why was I charged an additional $1.20 for buying a 60 minute replenishment card? At $19.99 plus tax, it always came out to $21.71. Explain the additional charge???
I have a Moto G4 Play on the BYOP thing & I could not be any more happier!
I just bought a refurbished Galaxy S7 with a 90 day warranty from Amazon for less than $300.00. I added the $1.00 SIM from Tracfone which they sent via Fed-EX next day and was up and running in just a few minutes. The phone has been running perfectly and I use it for work. If you do a little research, you can find quality refurbished phones for a fraction of the price.
I'm enjoying my Samsung Galaxy Sky. My 3rd smartphone under Tracfone. Last one with triple minutes and 16gb so I could use more apps when we travel!
I second what fgermaine said,same set-up for a year now and life is good thankx to the group over at HOFO. I did purchase and unlock the motoE4 on impulse, but why mess with a good thing? The E4 is always there if I need it.
My wife and I have a LG V20 each on the BYOP plan and we love it.
Samsung Galaxy J3 Luna Pro has been fantastic.
And at less than $100 ypu cant go wrong.
Best Buy has them on sale occasionally for about half off.
The Sky Pro S727VL is quad-core CPU. There is even Sky Pro S737TL too, but not sure on it's CPU too. From what I read, it is an octa-core core.
I had the valet 3 phones ago was good but only for calling not for internet or that no texting just too slow.
Had it 2 phones ago loved the look and how it worked at first. Then it just started doing weird stuff and I sent it back after a month and got a different LG power had that over a year til last year I got a samsung galaxy sky. The LG power wouldn't do pictures in text. Now love my samsung but want a newer one with more memory than 16G if possible but so far none at cheap price.
I know this is an old post, but for anyone who may not know how this works, all the contacts from your Google account get created in your smartphone when you activate it, so it's a good idea to clean up your contacts before activating.
First, to avoid those "one time contacts" change your Google account settings. Then delete any contacts that you don't want and while you are at it, you can add any missing addresses, phone numbers, etc. to the ones you are keeping.
Once your contacts are the way you want them, activate your new smartphone and you will see that good contact list on your phone.
Any idea when the s motoroloa moto g6 (xt 1925dl) on their website will be coming out?
You can purchase an unlocked Motorola G6 Play from Amazon for $190 and take it to Tracfone using BYOP. You also need a Tracfone SIM card for the service that works best in your area.
Samsung Galaxy S7 is the best mobile phone I have ever used.
Maybe it's time to have 2 lists, "Budget phones" and "Top phones", as that $100 J7 Sky Pro at #6 looks very out of place w/ those top of the line Galaxys and iPhones. Samsung naming everything "Galaxy" with a number rafter it doens't help either. My wife and I have the J3 Luna Pro now which is ok, but I had the Samsung Galaxy Core before it and it was garbage. Getting my son the J7 Sky Pro now for $68 on Amazon w/ the $40 bonus, I've never spent more than $100 on a smartphone.
Peter, your blogs and information about new phone releases and other tips has been invaluable throughout the years.
I have never had a need (nor the $) to buy an Iphone. That being said it would be nice to hear your thoughts on previously released regular Tracfones by naming the best 10 lower cost androids.
My personal choice would be the Rebel which I have switched back to many times in order to try out other models. I'm not even sure which model of the 4 that I own...It's probably the 1 or 2. I know it does have TMFL which 2 of that model do not have. The Rebel has never failed me in any way. It is light to handle and the 4'5" screen is not too big or too small. Esy to carry in your pocket!!!!
Anyway, thank you so much for all your promo codes for those of us can still use those precious TMFL codes!

Alot of ppl including myself have enjoyed the Lg Ultimate 2. I kept mine as it would make a good back up. But I found when others would send me a pic or othr SMS it would never "come through" on this model. Other than that I had no problems with the phone. I have found that the LG Rebel is slightly a better model at around the same price of the Ultimate 2. The Rebel will let SMS come through n.p. though sometimes there seems to be a slight delay!Same size as the Ultimate and vey light when carrying around! Some Rebels still carry the TMFL!

If this review was posted in Feb, 2019, what the heck are reviews and comments from 2014/2015/etc doing here? Since they're based on completely different reviews, they don't seem very useful.
It wouldn't bother me however, if I could figure out how to get them to display in REVERSE chronological order (most recent first), rather than straight chronological order, so I could skip over the irrelevant old crap.
Is there any way to do this?
Hey, I notice that you rate the Samsung Galaxy S7 very highly.
I thought very highly of mine too (BYOP, refurbished) until visiting my sister in Maine.
Her husband has a cheap ZTE Tracfone, and he's getting 4-5 bars on his phone, while I'm getting 0-2 bars on mine. What's up with THAT??? I went out and bought a signal booster before I realized this. The signal booster cost more than his phone!
It seems there's a very important aspect of smartphone performance which you never mention in your reviews...
