Luring you with shiny phones
I propose to write an essay in discussing how major phone companies try to lure people in with brand new phones into a 2 year contract even though it is not a practical choice. I will discuss various advertisements in which these companies never even mention the terms and conditions of the contracts with only showing you the features of the brand new phone. Companies such as AT&T, Sprint, and T-mobile are major players of this phenomenon. I'd also like to point out how there marketing tactics also give the idea to many customers that having a contract is completely normal as if there are no other choices left and also the fact that most people use a contract such as saying "the nation's largest LTE network" in the goal of getting more and more people to sign in to the contract. Ads showing the brand new iPhone 5s for only one hundred dollars would be perfect examples of how companies want you to sign a contract when indeed other companies offer cheaper and more practical alternatives. In the end, these offers are not practical and should be ignored at all cost.
