ugh I HATE touch screebs that need a stylus cause that means it really shouldn't be a touch screen! What's the point of it being TOUCH if you have to touch it with a stupid pen?!?!
Thanks Tab you were so informative but who watches videos on a cellphone? I've had a Finesse with Straight Talk for a year and loved it, bur could you please do a review on the Nokia6790 which ST now have....I'd love to see a comparison as I believe it's also a winner.
would rather get Virgin Mobiles beyond plan since I don't talk alot I can pay 25 bucks a month and get youtube and unlimited text. Straight talk would be great if you could play youtube and get full internet.
Picked up one of these puppies a few weeks ago for practically nothing when I first came to the states from Australia. I'm using the pay-as-you-go plan right now and it's an absolute lifesaver. It's verrry inexpensive I can just refill my minutes by buying cards at Walmart or just going online. Great for a foreign exchange student or any foreigner who doesn't want to sign a long term contract with a cruddy service provider.
I've had straight talk for a while now and am very pleased with it. Now getting the Samsung Finesse will just be icing on the cake. Now I'll have a nice touchscreen phone and an unlimited plan for only $45 a month. Thanks Straight Talk!
I am totally jealous, where can I get this phone? Straight Talk is always bringing the best technology to its users. Just think out of all the network service providers they could choose from they chose Verizon.
@2010getupandgo2010 I think it's sold out but has been replaced by a really cool Nokia smart phone with even more features so go check it out at Walmart but stick to the $45.00 unlimited talk, text and data plan..it's the best in the country!
This Samsung Finesse R810C is something different to what I've ever seen, it seems quicker and smoother to use the touch screen than other conventional phones. Its really great to watch these Straight Talk phone reviews it really does help us choose our next Straight Talk phones from the comfort of our homes. The Straight Talk $45 unlimited plan gives the best value for money that you will ever find in the USA.
I love the big touch screen on the phone. I see the Samsung 810C is currently selling on the Straight Talk web for only $328.99. Straight talk definitely has brilliant reception on the Verizon Network and the unlimited prepaid talk, text & web for 30 days service a month and free calls to 411 are incredibly cheap.
Can you show us how the fb widget works? I have an iphone 3gs and the thing i love is taking a pic and scrolling threw my pics and uploading them straight to fb. Also love the fb app for the iphone.
by the way... that phone is three hundred and fifty something "smackaroos"... Ouch!! I wonder if you can get it for less and use it with straight talk??? : - / Does anyone knows if that is possible.... Thanks!
I want to leave my x-tra exp. wireless co. when my contract is up in Dec. I've been doing my research and straight talk has the better value. I wouldn't dispose of my co. completely though, since prepay companies at not 100% reliable even though most of them are affiliated with larger companies like sprint, Verizon & At&t. I don't want to find myself in the middle of nowhere with a broken car and no service. 2 words: JASON BORGES! he heI I'll keep 1 with the lowest rate with Spr & 1 w S. T
@ShawBrothersGirl Nope...no streaming video or audio on any plans or any phones. I have a feeling it has to do with Verizon not wanting ST to zap their bandwidth...but thats just a guess.
If u find a picture on the web is the phone capable of saving the picture?
and also can you load your own apps on it or is all that stuff restricted like verizon phones are. only other thing i wonder is does it use brew firmware or different OS.
i understand that. but i did not ask will it play youtube. the question was generalization meaning anything resembling youtube. like other streaming sites. or can u download videos from websites that already have the video in the proper format....
I am considering buying a cheaper Straight Talk phone, and saving up to buy this one. You mentioned that the Finesse did not have a good reception as others. Which Straight Talk phone would you say has the best signal?
got mine yesterday and im still learning the features i guess it takes a while gettin use to it. The phone has gotten cheaper too. I got it for $199 with a $50 mail in rebate. Also what i like is that your monthly bill is FLAT rate. Mine is $54 coz i got the $4 insurance plan just in case if the phone gets lost or wahtever.
Ive noticed that it doesn't have any games. It says you can download games...i hope its true. I don't like when phones don't have games.
@migLio101 It is called straight talk they have to prepaid plan offers one is 30 for a months worth of service which gets you a 1000 Talk, 1000 Text, and 30MB of Web. The other is $45 for a month worth of service which gets you Unlimited Talk Text and Web. And yes this is prepaid you can get it of there web site or Walmart.
Thanks for the review.
Good Job.
