It should work. I use it with straight talk $45 unlimited plan and I have a 16gb micro sd card in mine. Unfortunately I only get edge (2g) network with it. I believe it's because this is the UK model. I've read reviews stating it gets full speed in the UK so I'm fairly sure that's what it is. The audio is pretty good with this phone but I don't care much for the beats audio unless I'm using headphones.

I signed mine up with Metro PCS which is a prepaid service with no contract. I have everything (talk, text and data) unlimited for $55 per month.

There is a monthly fee if you choose to get more than 500Mb per month and just check out the website freedompop.comhttp://www.freedompop.com/faq_answer.htm?articleId=24118322

No, the music files are all proprietary (not mp3s) and you can't access them outside of the MuveMusic app on the phone. You can't move the files or play them if you discontinue service.

There are some options if you can limit yourself to wi-fi only or limited use. Lycamobile has excellent pay as you go rates if you don't plan on using data (T-mobile only so only 2G speeds). There is a 2000 min for $45/year on AT&T;'s GoPhone with no data. Ptel and H2O might worth looking at as they have some interesting pay as you go products and they are AT&T.; Data is expensive generally on pay as you go though. But, yeah Cricket is probably the best deal.

You cannot store music on the unit.Whatever music you have on your phone will be played. You can use Pandora or xm. You tube has some good tutorials also. You also need a specific cord for which phone you have.

I bought this phone an it broke within 8 months , Virgin Mobile gave Me back a refurbished unit . Yeah Im on that plan too for $25 a month. As long as You stay on it , You will be billed $25 , but if You go to the $40 unlimited , and change Your mind a month or 2 years , You wont be able to use that plan again and will be charged $35 a month .

This is not true, I've seen others say this same thing, so I called AT&T.; If the phone is used as a gophone you do not need to purchase a data plan. If you use it as a contract or any other "plan" you need the data plan. The $25/month or $50/month Gophone refill cards will work. Not trusting the answer on the phone I used the online chat and asked an AT&T; rep the same question and got the same answer.

I don't know, I've never used the device, it costs too much $50/month subscription to use it.

Yes. I use a micro sd card and pay 60$ monthly for 4G service. Just make sure you use wifi when possible. I LOVE MY MINI ;)

No. If you're interested in a multiple format unit, I'd suggest looking at a player by Oppo. It's quite a bit more money but it'll take care of EVERYTHING. Bill

Not sure about the straight talk, since I have my plan through Verizon. MP3, yes, as I download from Amazon frequently. But it will occasionally freeze up in the middle of playing a song. (Not due to memory being full, as I still have lots of room on the memory card) Doesn't freeze very often, but more than twice is too much for me. Good luck.

If you are using Virgin Mobile's 3G I believe all U.S. plans include unlimited 3G for no additional cost (although there is, if I recall correctly, some fine print about limiting the speed past a basic threshold of usage). At home -- or in 'friendly' (accessible) WiFi situations you are not using the 3G and there would be no additional cost to you beyond what you are already paying for your internet connection. FOR THE RECORD though, I dumped this phone because the multiprocessing affects the pitch of the music being played, which is totally unforgivable to my hears. I moved up to the HTC One V that can be found here for between $49 and $99 dollars.

If you are in the US, Cricket (a new AT&T; subsidiary, recently merged with AIO, also an AT&T; subsidiary) or Straight Talk (an AT&T;/T-mobile MVNO sold through Wal-Mart) both offer competitive pre-paid plans with data in the $35 to $45/month range -- and cheaper options, as well. This phone should also work with AT&T; Go-Phone pre-paid service. All T-mobile service is also now no-contract -- both pre-paid and post-paid -- and this phone will work with T-mobile, but the US version will likely be better in most areas. Search Wikipedia for "US MVNOs" -- any that use AT&T; or T-mobile will likely work with this phone.

It has a music player and if you get one that doesnt, there are plenty of apps that will allow you to. Since it comes with a card reader (mini card and they are not overly expensive but they arent cheap either, bout a buck/G, 32G is about $30) I would assume you can download music to the card and play from it. I just played the music on the installed HD and it does play and the volume isnt too bad, at least you can hear the song pretty well, unlike some I have had in the past.

No, There are is no monthly fee. It is truly free when you activate the device it will offer you free 2.5 gb free but if you look closer it will say first month and the second option is 500mb of free data monthly for life. Use that one. after setup log in to your account and turn off "auto top of/auto refill" of data or when you get to 450mb of data they will charge to refill.
