can you use straight talk with this

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!

Every last person answered this INCORRECTLY. You absolutely CAN use this with Straight Talk Home. This is the exact same unit used by Verizon Wireless. Straight Talk, a Tracfone company, is an MVNO for Verizon, AT&T;, T-Mobile and Sprint. You pay Straight Talk for the bill, Straight Talk provides the customer service and Verizon Wireless will provide the telephone service to you.

If you order the phone unlocked and not from a carrier then it doesn't come with a sim card. If straight talk uses sim cards then you can just bring your phone into them and they will just install it for you.

It uses a mini sim (not micro or nano like newer phones).Straight Talk uses VzW network AFAIK, so this phone shouldn't work on it.

It uses the mini Sim card and as long as straight talk has a mini Sim it will work

Yes. My Son has one. As long as it's a 3g phone (no SIM card), you can BYOP with Straight Talk. They do not activate 4g LTE devices or iphone 5's.
