Two new mobile phones are now available for purchase in the United States via wireless carrier MetroPCS, namely the Huawei M835 and Samsung Freeform III, both of which feature price tags of less than $100 at the moment, without requiring the signing of a contract agreement with the operator. The Huawei M835 is an Android-based handset that arrived at the wireless carrier with the Android 2.2 Froyo OS on board, while the Samsung Freeform III was launched as an affordable QWERTY-enabled phone that would certainly prove a great option for those who type a lot on their devices.

The Huawei M835 is listed on the wireless carrier's website here with a regular price of $129.99 attached to it, but not available for $79.00+TAX.

Users interested in this device will be able to enjoy it on plans that start at $50 per month, without the signing of a lengthy agreement, as other wireless carriers in the country would require.

“The Huawei M835 with Android 2.2 is your entertainment center, GPS navigator, news & weather informant, and your social network connection all in one powerful, pocket-sized device,” the wireless carrier explains.

“Plug in your headset to experience DTS Envelo virtual surround sound with crisper highs & tighter lows. Stream content from the web or your own media library. Grab apps from the Android Marketplace. Whatever you want to do, the M835 delivers.”

The smartphone comes with a 2.8 QVGA 320X240 screen, 3.2MP camera with video capture capabilities, Wi-Fi connectivity options, DTS Envelo technology, microSD memory card slot, and with a 1200 mAh battery packed inside.

Packed with a 2.4-inch screen that can deliver a 320X480 pixel resolution, the Samsung Freeform III, available at MetroPCS here for $49.99, will certainly prove a great option for those who like texting while on the go.

The mobile phone also comes with a 1.3MP camera on the back, as well as with 100MB of internal memory, microSD memory card slot for up to 32GB of additional storage space, and a 1000mAh battery that can deliver up to 3.3 hours of talk time.

“Shape your statements and let ‘em fly with the Samsung Freeform III. This stylish and functional phone features an expanded 2.4” display and a full QWERTY keyboard, giving you the freedom to type texts, picture messages, and IMs with ease,” the carrier explains.

“Bring friends into the fold with quick access to your favorite social networking sites. Add new angles with preloaded apps, games and more, and hold the world in the palm of your hand with the user-friendly web browser.”
