From what i have read it is not, according to samsung it can browse the web using bing, if you are looking for a 3g flip phone there is the samsung convoy2

This phone is a very basic flip phone. The top banner says 1X, and I don't think that is 3G. The phone is Bluetooth enabled, can take photos, can send/receive text, and has access to the "mobile web." By today's standards, it is a simple phone. My husband, who is not tech-savvy, is very happy with it.

I don't know about straight talk. I have Page Plus and any 3G phone will work with them but not 4G. If you want a good pre pay phone company then go with Page Plus.

I never received this phone from Amazon. The seller never had it in stock. It looks like you just need to buy the straight talk sim and it should work ok but I would check with their tech support first.

The phone is unlocked. I don't think you would have any problems with straight talk but in the event you were to the phone can be returned for refund or trade. The only phones that I have experienced having problems with straight talk are Apples.

Verizon can be used with this phone, but I am not sure about Straight Talk.

Straight talk offers 2 types of phones, ones that take sim cards and run on the att towers and one that don't and run off of Verizon. If u have straight talk right now and have a sim my best guess is that it will work just not sure if u would have 3 / 4G speeds. I have AT&T; 45$ plan from Walmart and the reception in towns and city's is excellent. If you aren't sure or want to double check all u should have to do is take your current set up into a Walmart and make sure it's the sim set up and the towers you'll run off of. If you want to know more about this phone specifically i can leave an email address to contact me at. It may have a few minor settings that may need to be adjusted for your area.

Straight Talk AT&T; or T-Mobile service only...not Verizion towers. Choose the sim card that works best in your area.

Will work with Any GSM company. As for 3G, find out what bands Straight Talk uses and compare them with the bands this phone has, which would be 900/2100.

Hi there, the phone was really Unlocked but I would not get a 3G because you can not get any of the apps at all. For a little one I would get a least the 3GS. That one is fine. I use is in Haiti and it works fine. Good luck.

It's an unlocked phone, out will work with tmobile, at&t;, simple mobile. Not sure about straight talk, if the use a sim card and they operate with in the spectrum that the phone can receive, then it might, if your company does not use a sim, then it might not.

I used it on a T-Mobile network through Straight Talk and only got 3G with the service they provided, service is different depending on the phone and provider.

I live in Troy Al and I have 3g here. I love the phone as well. FYI: motorola smartphones will allow you to use the hot spot(tether) feature yet straighttalk does not allow tethering. Straight talk will limit data and slow u down. Once they slow ur data, it is permanent. Hope this helps.
