Mobile Phone Accessories

Staples carries a large selection of Cell Phones and Accessories to ensure we carry the right solution for you. Here is some helpful information to aid you in your purchase decision.

What is a Prepaid Cell Phone?

A prepaid cell phone (also commonly referred to as pay-as-you-go, pay-as-you-talk, pay and go, prepaid wireless, or prepay) is a phone for which credit is purchased in advance of service use. The purchased credit is used to pay for phone services at the point the service is accessed or consumed.

What is an Unlocked Cell Phone?

An unlocked cell phone is one that is not tied into a certain carrier's network: It will work with more than one service provider. Most cell phones and smartphones are tied—or locked—to a certain cellular carrier, such as Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile, AT&T, or Sprint. Even if you don't actually buy the phone from the carrier, the phone is still tied to a carrier.
