Got one as well. Like new condition. No idea how well the service works, got it to use on WiFi and have a backup for quick calls just in case.Something to note about the $40 Tracfone deal is that it has essentially no data included and only 1500 minutes, 1500 texts. I guess they figure that's a year's worth. Works for my purpose though; WiFi use with SIM turned off.

It does have a 1500mb data. Activated about 10 days ago.

Sure, that's what I mean by "essentially no data". That's barely any in general, let alone for a year.

What happens when you use up the text and minutes. Does the phone still work to receive texts? Thinking of wifi device with Google voice number.

Anyone know the model number? I am trying to find SM-A166U or SM-A166U1 that works with Omnipod. The walmart website just says A16.

U1 is unlocked, U is locked. The Walmart page shows this is locked, so I'm 99.999% sure it's A166U.

Model number is SM-S166V for the Tracfone version (& WFM, ST, TW are same Verizon Value brand). Verizon locked models have their own model number.

This phone is really really slow, and low memory. Yes, it is cheap, but it is painful!

The Verizon Value locked model used by WFM, Tracfone, Total Wireless & Straight Talk only has 4gb ram.
FYI - Amazon has a refurb TF version with yr of service for around $40, mine looked to be brand new.

Thanks. So if I order this straight talk wireless one that also says 8gb of ram it will still just be 4gb of ram since its a verizon value locked model?

Yep. Same model is used across the brands (they buy in bulk).
