4GB RAM is ok for a lower end Android phone like the A15. It is a 2024 phone so it will get at 4 years update from Samsung.
There are several tips discussed on other SD threads about how to "speed up" these phones (uninstalling unused apps, turning animation off in developer mode and setting RAMplus to zero).
The A15 is probably fine as a back up phone and you are not using multiple apps at the same time. At this low price on straight talk and unlock in 60 days, it is a good deal if you need a back up phone for cheap.

deal is long gone, sharing here to explain for other people

June 12-Oct 13 the free straight talk phone was the Moto G Power 2024 edition if you bought 1 month of silver service. Brand new phone (announced late March 2024) on the market, so new that some phones were not auto unlocking in August (60 days after) for Straight Talk forgot to install the unlock server on their end and thus people had complaints for their phones were not auto unlocking as they should. But by early September Straight Talk had fix this and phones were auto unlocking after 60 days again. My personal phone that I bought right before the sale ended should be unlocking in 32 days *so cross my fingers* (took a week and a half to ship the device, this is relevant for I am traveling in christmas so I need internet while traveling)

New Phone deal is the Samsung A15 5g above. �� Deal is good till Jan 5, 2025 aka a different 3 month period of this will be the straight talk phone on sale, free after 1 month service.

The A15 has less ram, and makes a horrible T-Mobile phone for it has the verizon 5g bands but not both of the two the 5g frequency bands T-Mobile uses (4g should still work though, and it has one of the two main 5g bands.) Frequency Bands for AT&T it has some of the 5g and 4g bands but not all that carrier uses, but also AT&T has a white list problem where only certain phone models work on AT&T and I do not know if this phone works on AT&T due to that whitelist or not.

Good Luck

I'm thinking about getting this as an emergency phone... got the iPhone 13 a few days ago so the Silver plan is $30. One of my Chase cards has a Chase Offer for 25% cashback on Tracfone, and it appears the transaction posts as Tracfone (even though it's on the ST website) so hopefully cb will be smooth.
HSN and QVC has a 2 TRACFONE offer for Samsung A15 for $110 unlocked. applying 25% it will only cost $78-80 to you after Chase offer then add a new account discount with QVC/HSN and apply $20 off $40 (don't know if stackable or not) and you may get big discount for this phone and have two phones.

The Chase offers require you to buy directly from Straight Talk or TracFone. Also it's 25% cb but capped at $15.

I just bought one after activating the Chase Offer for 25% on Straighttalk and going through one of the cb sites that cannot be named. After taxes paid $34.70 silver plan (since I bought the iPhone deal last week). If all cb comes through, hope it drops to ~$20 paid...

I used my Chase offer for my ST A15 ordered on 11/13. ST charged on 11/14. Offer expired on 11/15 and my Chase account showed on 11/18 that the offer was Added but not Redeemed. I was going to contact Chase but held off. After the order was shipped on Tuesday 11/19, the account showed the offer as Redeemed and credit received today 11/22.

Yeah it takes almost a week for Chase Offers to show as redeemed. I wish it were more like BOA deals which send me a redemption confirmation email almost immediately (just did one today). They have many of the same offers but not ST this time.

True one-click activation online. First time ST user and surprised by the lack of bloatware compared to other carrier. Good initial impression so far.

If you're asking about Straight Talk ref code, I'm sure someone will offer you one. Be aware that for the rewards points to go from pending to available for use, BOTH the referred account and the referring account must stay active for 61 days, meaning you will have to pay for 2 more months of service for your ST phone besides the required-purchase 1st month, and if your referrer doesn't keep their account active for 61 days then your points go kaput. Depending on how many points you get and what you plan to use the points for, it might not be a good deal. I did the Tracfone Rewards deal from 2021 through 2022 and got many free iPhones from it, but with the paltry amounts of points being rewarded now, it's no longer profitable.

Thanks. Didn't realize that you have to keep the line active.

is this deal good. i read you can signup for this deal until Jan 5, 2025. A14 5G with Tracfone is only $ 63. I guess unlocking rules are the same everywhere.

The attachment shows the points that I earned in my main TF account. At the time, you could redeem 20,000 points for a $300 Code to buy phones on TF web site. I think a new iPhone 11 was going for $240 and a refurbished one was $150. If no refurbished i11's were available, I used the $300 code to get a new iPhone 11 and a $60 Samsung A03s.

It looks like 2 referrals would get you enough points for a $300 code. That is crazy. I'm glad you were able to cash in!
