This is a Quad-Band world phone that can be unlocked by pressing a few buttons. Check out our review of this phone. Also available with $35 worth of airtime for $60. [BizRate]

      I have it and it is good basic phone. I got it for $20 few months back, but even the $40 price tag is good considering it has camera, bluetooth and two screens. My only complaint is that the battery does not last very long. Though with such a slim phone there is really no place for high capacity battery.

      I have 2 of these and they're great phones with easy unlock codes.Note,If you purchased without sim card,ATT won't allow you to order again on the second time.

      I have a couple of these myself. Sure they're basic, but at least you don't worry about taking out a second mortgage if you leave it at the coffee shop! This phone is perfect if you're looking for a lightweight slimline easy to use and VALUE solution!

      I tried to buy it but ATT refused to sell it to me, saying that I have already maximum lines. I think they count how many they sold to each person. Any ideas why they do it?

      I meant maximum lines go GoPhone not lines for contract...

      Can it ring and vibrate at the same time? Some of the chaper Samsungs can't do that, yet every other phone on the planet can...

      Bluetooth is crippled....only for headset and nothing else...you can forget about a dongle/link to PC for any purpose (file share, ringtone, etc.)

      I tried out this and several other brands at a store where you could actually use them for making calls. Phoned up the same friend on all of the models I was considering, and this was the only one he said didn't sound very clear. CNET also gave it poor marks in that department, which was kind of disappointing because I liked the look and feel of it more than that of some of the bar phones that sounded better.
