You have to pay for a plan through verizon but yes. It doesnt work very well though

No. just the phone it self. You have to have your own plan. I just had my number switched to new telephone.

Yes it does! You just need a Micro SIM Card since that is the one that uses this Phone (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sim_card#Formats).

I believe you do. Most of these features are included in your phone package already. Call your phone company to get the straight scoop on it. /Erik

I believe if you buy the data plan from your carrier it does..i dont i just use for txt and phone..the camera doesnt take very good pictures either if that matters to you..the phone is great for me as i just wanted a basic phone with a real keyboard.

Yes. However, I do not recommend this phone. I had one and it kept dropping calls, sound was horrible and battery life didn't last long.

It really depends on features you want. If you ONLY call and text, then I would not buy this phone. You can switch your service to no data and save money. If you plan on doing anything on the web at all, then yes, I would buy this phone.

No the sim card was not included... it comes with battery and charging adapter. My previous mobile broke and i used the same sim card. This is a good basic phone with very good features. It solves the purpose well for sending and recieving text msgs, phone calls, alarm and FM radio ( and has a torch light feature too)... But not good for taking pictures and ofcourse not convinient for emails and browsing.

No the sim card is not included. You need to provide your own. You can get just a sim card from t-mobile. It works great.

Answer here...no it does not. Just a pre warning I wouldn't buy this phone from here it was refurbished and fell apart, didn't even last a week.

The phone has other capabilities, but it works just fine for texting and calls. That is what the one I ordered is used for.

Yes it will do both call and text. It works on the GSM cell phone network. That would be ATT, Tmobile and others but not Verizon. You can also get a gsm sim card from other suppliers. I used Ultra mobile and they have a $19 per month plan.

No it does not . Unless you want a phone for just calls and txt maybe a few low quality pics this isn't the phone you want. This phone was for my mom and that's what she wanted it for so it's perfect for her.

I'm not sure because I really didn't use those functions, I only needed the phone for text and phone calls and I don't have the phone anymore or else I would've checked to see if it did. Sorry

No, it does not. I also feel I should say that this phone is very difficult to use for texting unless you have EXTREMELY strong fingers.

Yes, but very basic phone, not much else going on but the phone. Cant get to caller id unless its hung up

Yes it does and it has a feature that allows you to get messages from call when you are using the phone. Check your user guide to find out how to do this.Maggi
