Boost Mobile is a cell phone service provider and a division of Sprint Nextel. Boost Mobile offers a range of pay-per-use and month-to-month plans designed to free users of contractual obligations. However, for additional benefits and a wider selection of phones, you will likely prefer the main Sprint Wireless brand. Switching is easy and free, since Boost does not charge for cancellation. You can even carry over your Boost number to your new Sprint phone.
