Will this phone connect to 3G on straight talk?

I have tried to see whether I could answer this. If Straight Talk is using the AT&T; 850mhz backbone than yes. If they are using the T-mobile backbone probably not. I know my Defy does not get 3G as my plan does not offer roaming on the AT&T; backbone. If Lin C. has tried this I would gladly say yes - otherwise I'd get more information before the purchase.

I live in Troy Al and I have 3g here. I love the phone as well. FYI: motorola smartphones will allow you to use the hot spot(tether) feature yet straighttalk does not allow tethering. Straight talk will limit data and slow u down. Once they slow ur data, it is permanent. Hope this helps.

Yes it can be used with Straight Talk. I bought a SIM card kit from Wal-Mart.

The answer below is completely wrong. The phone will operate with StraightTalk if it is a compatible 3G phone regardless of whether it is GSM or CDMA. You just need to purchase a StraightTalk network access code from Walmart or StraightTalk for $15. StraightTalk operates over GSM or CDMA as long as you are using a compatible 3G phone. You can call StraighTalk and provide the phone MEID and they can tell you if it will work with their system.

I'm not familiar with straight talk so, I can't say yes or no. but, I can tell you it's an unlocked gsm phone and it works with any gsm sim card. I have tried.

It uses a standard sim card. For straight talk, I am not exactly sure if it will work.

I am not sure, since if Straight Talk GSM SIM card then it will work if not, then it will not work. Please verify with Straight talk on which frequency they are using for 2G voice and 3G Data, this phone has this:2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 3G Network HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 Thank you!NGP Team

I cannot tell you for absolute sure, but the reviews I've been reading, it seems these phones will work with 3G GSM companies like AT&T and the new Straight Talk/Net10 service for smart phones. Basically the services that use a SIM card. It may also work on CDMA services like Verizon, but as I said, I cannot say for certain as I'm going based on what I have read in reviews.

I am going through simple mobile and I get 3G on my phone so Straight Talk maybe ok.

Yes it uses straight talk. I'm not sure what towers it uses I'd assume it'd depend on your location This phone is a lot bigger than it looks in pictures. Bigger than a samsung 3

This phone will work with any GSM carrier. Simply buy a Straight Talk SIM Card for AT&T; or T-Mobile. I highly recommend using T-Mobile Prepaid, as they have pay as you go 1000 minutes for $100 (good for a year, extends if you reload the account within a year) and a $30/month plan with 1500 combined texts/minutes with 30MB if data. I hope these help!

This phone should work well on Straight Talk but since I have never used that service I can't be 100% sure. It will work at 3g speed (no 4g option on this phone) on T-Mobile 1900 MHz band) and AT&T; (850 MHz band). If Straight Talk runs on either of those and has 3g service, you should be fine.

No, this phone does not work on 3G networks. You need a diferent model that supports 3G technology.

Yes it will work on straight talk. And it has a back camera also. But it isn't worth the buy. Quality of the camera is blurry not the best at all

Yes. As an unlocked phone, it can work with any carrier. Straight talk use some of the listed frequencies. You're all set. Just buy the start up kit at Wal-Mart and read instructions.
