STRAIGHT TALK SAMSUNG 404 PREPAID GSM HANDSET 2.9 5 14 16
Not a bad phone for the price I purchased this phone for my wife which was on a prepaid T-mobile account. I didn't have bad service with T-mobile but, for $45 unlimited everything really is too good to pass up. The phone itself is just a basic slider phone and voice calls sound pretty good. I had no issues activating/signing up on the straight talk website. Once you sign up you can get auto-refill charged to a debit card once a month for continued service. But, if you like you can still pick up a refill card from Walmart. You have the option to purchase 1,3,6,12 month cards online and I believe 1, 3 and 6 month cards in store. I did get charged a $0.50 E-911 fee for both the phone and servcie card ($1 total) when I purchased it. Surfing the web on this thing is "possible" but, don't expect a whole "iphone" experience. 06/26/2011
Great for texters and non-techies It's a good phone for the average person. If you want something high tech and fancy then you're not gonna want this. Web browsing works well enough depending on what your using it for, like I said, not high tech. It's really good for texting with the full keyboard, but limited space in the inbox. Talking is fine and you can text while doing it, as well as conference calls. Camera works good, especially for a cell phone camera but no flash, video's aren't as great for some reason. Sometimes has problems with randomly shutting off but not enough to be a bother, only once in a while, maybe 4-5 times total. It's great if you want something simple for talking and texting but if you want something with super fast web browsing and apps, your outta luck. 11/27/2011
Nice, simple phone I first bought a $200.00 phone from staighttalk, hoping it would be good enough for the money--it wasn't. So I returned it and got this one. It's a very simple phone, call clarity is fine, although I really wish the speakerphone was louder! It's great for texting, which is nice since that's what I use it for most. Mobile web isn't very easy to use, though it is fast. Overall I love my phone, and am pleased with it. 01/07/2012
The straight Talk Samsung phone is horrible!!! i have only had it for a couple couple months and the soun goes off when it feels like it and the phone turns off all the time by its self like when i try to get on the internet or send txt messages or ever make calls!! i was having a family emergency and needed to contact my family and couldn't because it kept turning off when i called!! i DO NOT RECOMMEND this phone AT ALL!!!! not to mention when to txt it will write the letter 3 or 4 times so u have to go back and erase them. 02/05/2012
