  • i have the metro one aww that sucks no wonder i dont have the facebook app,twitter app,myspace app

  • haha. myspace icon.

  • Where I Live That Phone Is Not $300 Dollars Its Like A Hundred &&; Something

  • This phone has been discontinued. You might find some on EBay, but Straight Talk does NOT offer this phone anymore.

  • @HammerWGM I just saw it at Walmart today so apparently they still sell it. I live in Alabama.

  • @stefuhnee85 That's odd considering they discontinued it about a year ago.

  • @stefuhnee85 Looked like the same phone to me. Slim with a touch screen and everything. Why would they discontinue it? I hope it wasn't because there were problems with it.

  • i Think its a phone like this its 200 dollars i might get it

  • it looks like the samsung behold

  • i wanted this phone, but ended up getting the E71. i loved it at first but now its such a hassle. i dont like the keyboard and it freezes and restarts a lot. ughh. $200 wasted

  • this phone is awesome cause my lg keeps cuttin off for no reason so im jus going to spend the extra money and buy this

  • they know longer have this phone anymore

  • They no longer offer this phone or any CDMA smart phones but the E71 is out if you live in a gsm area.

  • U know there gonna have droid OS next time

  • yes you can

  • Personally, I like the Nokia E71 better for Straight Talk but this phone isnt too bad. I just love the Symbian OS that Nokia uses, its a smartphone platform with a worldwide prevalence that no other company can compare with and Straight Talk is bringing it to me for $45/mo for unlimited service!

  • This phone can be found at Wal-mart or tracfone or on e bay

  • I've looked everywhere for this phone and cannot find it available, except in those expensive rip-off places. If anyone knows where I can get one at Straiaghttalk rates please let me know

  • Iv read all about this phone from blogs, and other people who told me about it. I bought one and can tell you that in my opinion it is one of the smartest in the USA

  • Dont let the price of this quality phone put you off. It is one of the best phones from straighttalk. That is probably why it is so hard to come by. Im not sure who told me but why not try e bay. I love this phone. Samsung know how to make phones and this 'Finesse' is their best

  • This Samsung Finesse is still available from Wal-Mart. I also couldn't find it at Straighttalk Believe it is a real good phone

  • This Finesse 810 from Samsung I bought from Wal-Mart has immediately become one of the most user friendly phones I've ever had. I reccomend this to anyone,

  • This is a phone from straighttalk and for what I paid and their $45 service charge with unlimited coverage >It's a good deal, especially that it comes wit NO CONTRACT!!

  • I had this phone and i will tell you, you cant do a lot with it, i now have the nokia e71 which is way better i can do everything and payed way less

  • @vrobinson28 Yeah so glad they got rid of this one, the e71 is just a ton better and uses the internet a lot better. WHich is not that fast. But the signal strength has yet to do me wrong and it's unlimited for 45, what do you expect?

  • the only way to get this phone now is through ebay

  • @epo3fold really? cause i just baught mine today at my local store

  • Im watching this on my droid x can u do that on ur fascinate

  • i love straight talk, its prepaid and what not, people can call you cheap,poor,hobo, no we're smart shoppers we get more for less than other people would get, i think straight talk is the best way to go if your getting a SINGLE plan because 45$ for unlimited everything?! ill take it i was at verizon and i got the cheapest single plan 65-80$ a month for unlimited text and 450 min thats it.-.- but straight talk has verizons coverage so why not get verizon for a cheaper price lol.

  • My friend has this R810c and doesn't believe that it can be bought from Straighttalk for less than $300. I have tried to find it on their site but can't. I'll check out walmart and let all know if it's still available

  • finally with straight talk i can afford one of these really nice phones instead of having to pay a ridiculous amount of money each month... with straight talk i can have my cake and make calls with it too

  • This Samsung Finesse from Straigh Talk is going to save me big bucks. I'm new to straight talk but see the savings all my friends have been achieving since joining straight talk. A world without contracts anymore is a wonderful thought

  • My boyfriend brought home this phone last night and I'm completely jealous He bought it for only $45 and when he told me about all the unlimited coverage and not having to go into a contract, I nearly flipped. Why have I been wasting all my hard earned bucks on expensive cellphones, I'll never know. The good news is that ,for our anniversary has ordered one from Straighttalk for me

  • Phone is cool. Review sucked. If you want to review something. Get a frigging tripod for 1, and for 2, talk like you know what your saying. And with proper English. Nobody cares about your phone cover, they clicked on the link to see the phone. Terrible review!

  • This phone is pretty cool, but the best Straight Talk phone is the Nokia E71. Its by far a much sexier phone. I love Straight Talk because the monthly plans, I have the unlimited texts, calls and web and I couldnt be happier! Go NOLA!

  • I'm sorry but this phone is the most horrible piece of shit I have ever owned. I returned it after about 3 weeks to walmart. I should say I have owned 5 samsung phones and they have all been great.......except this absolute vomit-inducing fake ass phone. it can do very few things. it is NOT a smart phone in case you thought it might be. more importantly, it is sooooo slow to do anything & the virtual keyboard is awful. seriously, there is a reason they pulled it. dont buy it used either!!

  • All postitive comments help. With Straight Talk there are several phones to pick, and also plans. Walmart has them in electronics. I switch because I was spending a lot in my old cellphone company. With $30 a month you get 1000 minutes to use as desire, and the one I have the $45 a month unlimited plan is a relieve of those bills that don't let you sleep. Please do what I did, I switch and my Straight Talk's network is amazing.

  • I appreciate the fact that Straight Talk has the best network service through Verizon, I use to hate to pay for dropped calls or having to pay for those extra minutes that I was running around trying to get a clearer signal with those other network services.

  • I've been wanting to switch for a while from my family plan with t-mobile and after recently trying to find the best options out there, Straight Talk is it - the unlimited monthly plan for $45 trumps the $60+ Sprint one, and the $80 t-mobile. These companies are robbing us

  • @joanthebosss You'll be really happy with Straight Talk. I switched my entire family over at the beginning of the year and I'm saving so much money! Now that i know how great and stress free having a cell phone can be i feel like i have to let everyone know they should switch.

  • I also got the Nokia E71 with Straight Talk and not only is it a great phone but also free voice-guide navigation, multiple email accounts then auto refill with $45.00 and you get unlimited talk/text/data/411 calls.

  • i have an sd card and ive tried to download mp4 movies n put them in "my videos" folder n it will show up on my phone but it won't play it says unsupported file. does any one know which types of file this phone DOES support? plz help cuz this phone testing my sanity n thanks :)

  • i've had this phone for moths now n i hate it so much you can;t do anything with this, you cannot watch youtuve videos, you cannot stream anything period, you cannot download apps in any way shape or form. this phone sucks so bad. that was $402.80 flushed down the toilet. omg did i say worst phone ever? i read so many reviews of people saying NOT to buy this phone but noooooooo my stubborn self just had to go n get one

  • I still have my finesse and it is going strong. I now have the straighttalk $45 a month unlimited which is saving me lots of cash. I no longer have high cellphone bills to pay like before - Not that I am expecting it to, but if this phone goes I will definitely get another samsung from straighttalk

  • @travis17360 Lol ok will do ;)

  • I love this phone, it's the one my best friend got me for my birthday. Along with my 45 dollar unlimited texting, calling, and web plan, I've saved a ton of money with this new phone since I left my old company. So worth it.

  • It is a pity that the phone is no longer available but the R355C seems to have taken over. I bought it for my son and he is just over the moon with it. He is also on the straghttalk $45 plan which gives him unlimited talk, text and data for 1 month. It is so nice not having to nag him to cut his calls short as now time isn't an issue. In all ways my son is really winning

  • Okay, I know this is a really stupid question, but I want to know. Does this phone have an actual full QWERTY keyboard or is it just digital?

  • Is this phone still for sale?!

  • I'm not sure if this phone is still available with Straight Talk, but I got a Samsung R355C with Straigh Talk and after following the activation intstructions I got a $15 gift card! Plus the phone was cheap, $139 (it's a great phone! Check it out) that included 1000 call, 1000 text and 30 web, once I was done with that I put a $45 a month service that was all unlimited. But I have no contracts so I can switch from the $30 to the $45 according to my needs each month. Love Straigh Talk!

  • @LindaBlair1970 Yeah this phone isnt available for purchase via straight talk any more. Really was a good phone.

  • @YesIReview It was pretty good but now that they have a few smartphones I feel like I don't miss them anymore. I personally got the Nokia 6790 which reminds me of an iPhone but with a QWERTY slider keyboard, been really good to me so far.

  • @LindaBlair1970  The Finesse is no longer available but Straight Talk have a new really cool NokiaE71 smart-phone which is even better so check it out at Walmart!

  • @islay263 I just got the NokiaE71 with Straight talk and it works great! Great service, fast internet access and very user friendly!

  • @LindaBlair1970 it is stil available

  • @LindaBlair1970 I don't think it is either but that's fine because they now offer the Nokia 6790 which is pretty much like an iphone but with a full QWERTY keyboard. And half of the price lol

  • @LindaBlair1970 I'm pretty sure this phone is not available either but that's probably alright because the phones they have now are really a lot better. I think the only edge iPhone had was the actual phone, and now with the Samsung r810c from Straight Talk and the fact that it costs half as much, it's a done deal.

  • @LindaBlair1970 Actually this phone is still available in my area. I know that because I just got it for christmas and it rocks, throwing my iPhone out right now because the service here is actually BETTER (uses BOTH att and verizon, who else does that???) and it costs half as much.

  • @LindaBlair1970 But now it is available again, on their website. Which is great news, because it really is a great phone, one of the few that you can buy that really takes advantage of the mobile web

  • @LindaBlair1970 But now it is available again, on their website. Which is great news, because it really is a great phone, one of the few that you can buy that really takes advantage of the mobile web and unlimited email (still hard to check email on a little flip fone even if it is unlimited!)

  • @LindaBlair1970

    I agree that the R810C should of had some more features for the price but it's still a great phone overall with an excellent service. My husband and I switched over from Tmobile to try out Straight Talks service since we've been recommended it countless times and It's already saved us about 120 dollars so far! Apparently the network runs on At&T AND Verizon towers so I pretty much always have service wherever I go unlike my experience with Tmobile.

  • The Samsung Finesse is the most amazing phone to get from a prepaid service...not so long ago prepaid phones were the bottom of the pot but the Finesse is fabulous and when combined with the $45.00 per month unlimited call, text and data plan it's streets ahead of anything else on the market!

  • I went to get the Samsung Finesse from Straight Talk for my husband for his birthday and loved it so much I got one for me too...I figure the money we will save on the $45.00 unlimited call, text and data plans we got will pay for the phones in a very short time and we love them and the service!!

  • @rbaylis75 WOW!! I'm had that experience as well and its a very good deal.

  • I have this phone and am completely happy plus for $45 I get unlimited coverage and dont have to worry about those monthly bills

  • @tracyprosalendis yeah it's the same for me too. ;)

  • @YesIReview my fone is the like that too,but i go to youtube it siad unsupport. can u help me to support it .

  • i finally remembered the name of this phones predecessor... the Samsung Behold for t-mobile... idk how similar it is feature wize but yea...

  • how much was this phone and where did you get it from

    ?

  • Straight talk is a great company for controlling your monthly expenses. On top of this, they also offer some extremely nice phones for the money. For around $45 dollars you can receive unlimited talk and text for the month. This phone is really great as well. I love the aesthetic features of this phone, and being able to put high quality backrounds on the screen. Also I love the mp3 player features because I can store all of my music on the phone. This is such a great non-contracted phone.

  • The Finesse is an awesome phone for a prepaid service to offer compared to the prepaid phones from only 2 or 3 years ago! Another great offer is the unlimited talk, text and data access plan from Straight Talk and combined with the Finesse is a winner!

  • I bought this phone with StraightTalk not expecting or looking for an IPhone replacemt - what I wanted was a dependable SmartPhone for less money and I found that. The phone proved to be easy to use and with very few bugs and whenever I did have one, I called customer service and straighted it out. I think saving more than $80 a moth and no contract fees are a reason to switch to Straight Talk and the Finesse gives you the basic feeling of a SmartPhone without the contract prices.

  • Great review and great phone. A friend of mine has it on Straight Talk and loves it, when I can I'll definitely upgrade to this one.

  • damn y this phone so expensive

  • Can you do a video of how the FB widget looks and works? Thanks I currently have at&t and i have the iphone 3gs but tired of paying 80 a month. But also I think i will hate not having my apps.

  • does it hace wifi capabilities

  • @andrew0901280 yes It automatically connects to Wifi via the phones service.

  • @andrew0901280 so when your online with it does it have the same layout as the ipod touch
