The era of the free mobile phone handset on PAYG seems to be heading closer as the Carphone Warehouse begin offering the Motorola W180s dual band candy-bar at a low low price of just £2.88, that’s roughly $4.00 for our American cousins.

The deal is the buyer gets the Motorola W180s handset for £2.88 when brought with £10.00 worth of Orange airtime, which when you consider it isn’t a bad deal, £12.88 including the airtime can’t be bad.

Granted, the Motorola isn’t what you would call a head turning handset, but it’ll do what a mobile phone is supposed to do send voice calls and texts, which really is all most people need to stay in touch, and its got an FM radio too.

If you fancy picking up a dirt cheap secondary handset then hit up the Carphone Warehouse
