Blue Jay Wireless phones and smartphones with features like Dual SIM and Android OS are provided to eligible customers under Lifeline free government cell phone assistance program in supported states. BlueJay Wireless has been created to provide affordable wireless phone service to qualifying individuals with eligible income amounts. The main idea of a Lifeline program is to support those in need, therefore, American citizens with low incomes can receive landline or wireless service along with other types of federal help.
Being one of many Life line participating services, Blue Jay Wireless is relatively new to the market. Still, by operating in sixteen states and targeting specific customers it is getting more and more popular. The phones and the smartphones it gives to its consumers subscribed to various phoning plans include basically all they need to enjoy the benefits of wireless communication.

Unnecto Drone seems to be a fair choice among the three phones listed. It is a true smartphone a s seen from the specs above and goes with Android OS installed. It cannot be treated as one of the free government smartphones since it costs $50 but it is worth the extra costs, especially if you can afford a non-Lifeline Unlimited Anytime Minute, Text & Data BlueJay Wireless plan ($49.25 / month).
More phone names are listed under “Handset Manuals” category at the BlueJayWireless website. They are: Alcatel 606, Alcatel 768, Alcatel Sparq, Alcatel One Touch Evolve, Alltel AX50000, Blackberry 8130, Blackberry 8330, Blackberry 8830, HTC Hero, LG Envoy, LG Muziq, LG Wine II, LG Venus, Motorola Q, Motorola Razr, Palm Treo Pro 850, Samsung GT-E1205L Keystone 2, Samsung Freeform II, Samsung Glint, Samsung Intercept, Samsung Stunt, Sanyo Zio, Unnecto Primo, Unnecto Pro Z.
