Samsung T404G now available from Straight Talk

March 7, 2011/Joe Pawlikowski

It feels as though I’ve seen this handset before, and considering how basic it is I’m sure I have (the logo above the OK button indicates that it was probably at Tracfone, which makes sense). For those in Straight Talk‘s GSM areas, the Samsung T404G is now available. It’s a basic handset, as you can probably glean from the photo. You can still access the web and play music while snapping pictures from the 2 megapixel camera. It also features a sliding QWERTY keyboard. You can get the T404G at Straight Talk’s website for $89.99 (plus $30 or $45 for one month’s service). ]]>

    Just curious, if this is just a basic handset, do you really want this kind of phone for using the web? I do like that you can play music and seems like it has a reasonable camera setup. I also think the unlimited plan that Straight Talk has is one of the better buys for that kind of plan. I would probably start with the smaller one which still gives 1000 minutes and 3mb of data. Right now, just can’t afford to pay for more than I need.

    This Beautiful little texter phone is what my daughter in middle school wants and it should last her a few years. Straight talk’s unlimited plan is the lowest on the market at the moment at $45 and your’e getting the best coverage on Verizon and AT&T.

    Hi, what do you mean by GSM area? Is that why I can’t find this phone when I check on the straight talk website?

    @ Annette Arenas; there are two dominant types of networks in the US, GSM, and CDMA. Straight talk have access both these network types by buying bulk air space from mostly AT&T (GSM), and Verizon (CDMA). It’s very important to note that these two network types, are entirely incompatible, and when you do buy a ST phone, you make very sure what network you need to be on.
    The reason you don’t see this phone available on you ST website page is possibly due to the zip code you entered. Try another zip of a town real close to you.

    I was just curious to know how this phone stacked up to the Nokia E71. I’ really curious about getting a new ST phone, but I’m not sure which way to go. I like the sliding keyboard, but does that make this phone considerably bigger than the Nokia E71? Please let me know.Thanks!

    I finally bought the Samsung T404G (from Net10) and am very pleased with it. My first choice was the Samsung T401G, but the 404 is cuter. and with the Net10 prices and service…its just great!
