How to Upgrade Your Sprint Cell Phone

1. Know what you have. You need to know what kind of plan you are on, so examine some of the old bills to find out. Also, what kind of phone are you currently using? You need to know the maker and the model of the cell phone (For example, Kyocera 2255).
2. Know what you need. Make a list of all the wants and needs that you think might be important in a cell phone. This will keep you on track in the process of the upgrade and keep your priorities straight.
3. Know what you're doing. Are you thinking of just upgrading to a new phone or is your plan outdated too? There are many different plan options that can be adjusted to fit your evolving needs.
4. Do a phone upgrade. For a phone upgrade, the options are very simple. Head to the website (see References below) and check out what Sprint has in the way of new phones. Take some time and read up on them.
5. Do a plan upgrade. Luckily for you, Sprint has a cool program that makes it really easy to upgrade your plan from home. It's called the 'Sprint New For You' upgrade program (see References below). Using that program will make it easy to see if there are any new plans in the area for you.
6. Go to the Sprint store. You need to talk to a live representative and see what they recommend and also get the scoop on what specials are going on currently. This is the best way to get a good deal.
7. Take some time to think. Just relax and think over the upgrade details for about 72 hours. This will help you make the best decision and make sure you don't impulse buy.
8. Ask a Sprint customer about their phone. You will get the best information from someone who is not paid to give it to you. They'll be honest and tell you all the flaws with the phone.
9. Head back to the store and get the deal. Try to get the same representative you talked to the first time as they are familiar with the prices discussed and the special deals as well.
