Tracfone Cell Phone Cases and Covers
A cell phone cover or case can go a long way in protecting a cell phone, and add a nice accent or style to the phone. There are usually many options for each phone, especially for the more popular phones.Smartphones especially benefit from a case or cover, which adds extra protection, and can even make the phone waterproof, depending on the case..
You can search for Tracfone cases on Amazon or eBay and find many options. If you search for the name of the phone, plus 'cover' or 'case', you should be able to find a number of options.
There are also plenty of options for screen covers, and even leather cases. Just be sure you know the type of phone you are buying the case for.
Some retail stores like Best Buy, Dollar General and others, may have cases and covers that fit Tracfone devices.
Cell Phone Chargers and Other Accessories
There are plenty of other gift ideas that a cell phone user may find useful, including car chargers, external batteries, and extra memory.Below are some accessories that work with almost all phones from Tracfone, and will certainly be useful for Tracfone users.
Cell Phone Charger/Car Charger
An extra charger or car charger is a handy accessory to have especially for smartphone users, as these phones usually need to be recharged every 24 hours.
Many phones are using a standard Micro USB port for charging. You can find lots of options on Amazon for a Micro USB car Charger.
Some Tracfone devices use a variety of other connections, so you should check which connection you need before buying a charger.
Cell Phone Mount
Another handy idea (or hands-free idea) is a cell phone car mount, which holds the cell phone so you can keep your hands on the wheel.
Many mounts will hold a variety of different phones, and make using the phone's GPS much easier.
Cell Phone External Battery Charger
Smartphones are useful in so many ways, ranging from keeping in contact with others, to listing to music and playing games. But the battery just seems to drain so quickly, and sometimes we don't have access to a charger.
That's when you can use an external battery pack to store a charge for when your phone needs to be recharged while in a remote area.
Solar Powered Charger |
There are a wide variety of options to choose from, and a handful of different colors too.
If you really want freedom from the electricity grid while keeping your phone charged, check out Solar Powered Cell Phone Chargers, which are really cool power producing options. Pair this with an external battery pack, and you can stay charged no matter where you are in the world.
Micro SD Memory Storage
Most Tracfone cell phones have a slot for a Micro SD card which can store extra pictures, music, videos, games and more.
This is a convenient gift idea, and there are lots of options ranging form 2 or 4 GB up to even 32 GB.
Amazon offers a lot of options for Micro SD cards, and you can find them in the electronic sections of almost any retail store.
Be sure to double check that the phone will accept a Micro SD card, and that you choose the correct size. Most Tracfone Smartphones will accept up to 32 GB.
