Unless you have some Apps that can be used with Wi-Fi to call , you can't use this phone without a SIM Card .

Wifi, and any Sim card. In USA or any other country only buy the Sim card, put it on. Use it.

no you may not use a sim card in this phone this is a CDMA band Phone unit, the only phones that do use sim cards are GSM Band phones and those are usually AT&T; and T-mobile phones only

If it's on the Virgin Mobile network you don't need a sim card. I have used it as a wifi only devicce when I couldn't pay my bill.

Hi, Yes, it is contract free, you can use it with any operator.You can use it with any sim card as long as it is a micro sim card.No warranty means if you break it, you have to pay to fix it, it will not be paid for you.

I have a question off this one. I am currently in a contract and have unlimited internet. Will this be able to be used for this phone? For example can i download the free apps?

You do not have to have a contract to use the Samsung Galaxy...it is Wi-fi ONLY. I have Wi-fi at home, so I can use it here, but often I just pick up the service wherever I am (grocery store, coffee shops, other people's houses, etc.). The battery life isn't awesome, but I have yet to run out of battery when I haven't been around a power outlet. That's a perk to it being wifi only. If you get wi-fi, more than likely, there is an outlet around.

yes, but you can only use this phone as a prepaid, not contract. Well, 6 months after using as prepaid, you can use as contract. You can use your current #.

It is a no contract phone, however it requires a sim card. I use mine with Straight Talk, purchased sim from them.

The phone can be used as a wifi device without a sim card. However, if you want to download any apps you have to have a SIM card.

Hi, this Tablet does not take Sim card and because of that you can't get telephone service, but still you can get connected to Internet even in WiFi mode. I hope this info will help you out.Best regards.

You can purchase AT&T 3G or 4G without any contract - just as needed. If you have wi-fi available, you can shut off the cellular data. I switch back and forth at my convenience.

You would need to get your SIM card from a carrier like at&t or t-mobile, or any other GSM based carriers. US GSM cell phones work on 1900 MHz (and sometimes also 850 MHz ). Most other countries have GSM networks on 900 or 1800 MHz. Check on the website of your cell phone manufacturer to see which frequencies your model phone supports. you would still have to sign up for a 1 year or 2 year contract with the providers to use their services. Im not sure about prepaid accounts. If the phone supports VOIP calling then technically you dont need a contract, you could make calls over your home Wifi network, I have done this with my nokias n95 and e71.

This phone only works great with WiFi. Other that that its very slow because its not 4G compatabale.
