This is a good phone released. Use normal SIM. Depending on the operator and coverage you will connect well to send all mail navigation whatsapp pin etc. For wifi is excellent

A regular SIM Card, i bought a AT&T 3G SIM card and inserted it myself and called AT&T and activated it but i found out later, that if you go to a AT&T cellular store, they will give you an free 4G SIM Card, and activate it for you and the phone then becomes a GO PHONE through AT&T, the reason i am telling you this is because, you cant use a Verizon SIM card in these smart phones, only AT&T will allow you to buy a different brand phone and insert their SIM cards!

When I had US Celluar - they didn't have removable Sim Cards - not sure if that changed; this uses a sim card... - I bought this phone and used Straight Talk for 1.5 years - only $50 month for unlimited everything (doesn't let you do Picture messages though)

I have straight talk. Activated without any problems You must buy a sim card from S.T. The problem is the APN. You must change it.

Hello,This phone should work with straight talk, to be sure you can compare your service provider bands with the phones which are:2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 - SIM 1 & SIM 23G Network HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100Please let me know if you need further assistance.Thank you,Bobby

I don't know what straight talk is. I have T mobile. You need to belong to a service. I found that mine closely resembles Samsung phone.

I still continue to have this problem. I have my phone on straight talk service however I still can't receive picture msgs. I can send but not receive. Does anyone have the answer to this conundrum?

I think it has to be a t and t, to use straight talk, because a t & t has a sim card and slot. Verizon doesn't.

There is two prepaid companies that you can connect it to, one is PAGE PLUS and the other one is straight talk because is a 3g phone and a CDMA phone this is not a GSM phone it doesn't use sim card.you can look for both companies in Google they have very good prepaid plans and a very good signal because they work with the Verizon towers.

Yes, I have straight talk and all i had to do was transfer my sim card over to it. no need to call or for a different sim card.

I was told no. Straight Talk mostly uses CDMA encoding/broadcasting networks now. Those carriers that own that system are Verizon Wireless-Sprint They have no removable SIM. The other 2 proprietors that uses GSM are AT&T and T-Mobile. I have T-Mobile. No problems. If you can buy a Straight Talk SIM card, It still works on the same towers and encoding- transmitting systems. ie T-Mobile, AT&T. This is GSM and works in a significantly different way from a CDMA. The two are not compatible in any way. I have a Simple Mobile card that, as I said works off T-Mobile. For $40/mo. I get 100 GIG data and all unlimited talk and both kinds of text SMS and MMS... Been entirely happy with it! But I'm not a web surfer, and ironically use less than 40-50Mb data a month... So, I just don't need a lot of mobile data. Simple Mobile even shows a video of what settings to enter into the phone to program it. I have had an AT&T card in slot 2, just to compare the two-I couldn't notice a difference where I live, but look at those carriers coverage maps before you choose what service to try!

Unfortunately, Your phone wont be able to work on any carriers but AT&T; and T-mobile because they are the only 2 companies providing services for GSM phones aka unlocked phones. You cant update it to use on straight talk because it is not going to do any good either. I hope this helped ya.

I think it still requires a SIM card from AT&T. I am using my phone with StraightTalk and I had to put a SIM in it, but once the card was in it worked great! (Note: since this is an unlocked phone, you may have to enter the appropriate APNs (access point names) for your service.

I have straight talk and it works for calls and texting so far the only issue im having is the data even after updating the APN for the sim card i have only gotten a edge data connection instead of 3G like im supposed to havent contacted straight talk yet but i plan to soon.

you have to go through straight talk. the phone i got from here was not a good investment as i paid three times moreto get the phone working. i would recommend another phone as this phone is not supported much by the company anymore

As an unlocked phone it is capable of working with any GSM Carrier providing their services using a SIM Card.However, we can only guarantee basic call and text, we recommend contacting your Carrier and making sure they provide their services to this model phone without any restrictions. Make sure Straight Talk is a GSM carrier. This device uses a Mini-SIM card.
