at one time about 7 years ago this was the best phone you could buy....my Voyager still works after all these years....you can use it as a basic phone without the data plan....works great...nice pics and videos...great battery life and a hell of a deal for right now...I payed $400 for mine back in 2007

I'm pretty sure it came out before 'smart' phones. It does have the ability to access the web. I know Verizon made me change my plans when I activated the Voyager. A word of caution if you're thinking about purchasing one: the first one I bought on Amazon malfunctioned after about 100 days. The replacement did the same exact thing. I finally bit the bullet and bought an iPhone.

Verizon considers this a feature phone, not smart phone so you do not need to have a data plan. However if you use the rudimentary web browser etc it can be expensive paying by the kilobyte. I have purchased 2 of these from amazon. First was a bad internal display when received but amazon took it back. Second one had been going strong for over a year. I really like the clam shell keyboard for texting. Much better than a soft keyboard on a smartphone.

no, its not a smart phone, it is not data-ready (no data-package required). But it is text-ready and there are various text packages available.

No, this is not a smart phone. Technically it is called a 'feature phone'. It has a couple of limited apps provided by AT&T; but they are more expensive to use than if you just got a real smart phone.

No, this is not a smart phone, just good emergency phone if needed. It does have a good camera and keyboard.

No. This is a simple bare bones phone. It's sounds great and I got it because I didn't want a phone with any additional electronics or anything else to plug in.

It does not require a data plan. We have the phone on our family plan, with talk and unlimited texting.

Yes, it's a smart phone. It needs a data plan in case you want to use the internet features outside of a wi-fi network. If not, you can use it with wi-fi only.

no just pop in your sim and use What ever plan that's available . I used prepaid and I didn't need the data but it's ok to have . It's more of a feature phone like

You don't need a data plan. I wouldn't recommend this phone if you wanted to use the internet anyways; the access is not good for web surfing. Great for a basic text and talk plan though.

It really depends on features you want. If you ONLY call and text, then I would not buy this phone. You can switch your service to no data and save money. If you plan on doing anything on the web at all, then yes, I would buy this phone.

It needs a data plan, but you don't need a contract to get it in service. Very quirky though. If you have other choices, go with another phone. Tends to go off line a lot. and locks up to the point where you have to take the battery out to reset.

No, the phone does not require a data plan. I have the phone and do not have a data plan.

You should be able to use it as a regular line without a data plan, but just an fyi...we did not have much luck with this phone. If you are getting it for a kid it might be ok but in my experience it was very low quality..if you are looking for a good quality, durable phone I would look into something else

No, it's just a unassigned phone. You can use it with a lot of carriers, or use "Straight Talk's" (Walmart) Bring your own phone Plan.
