I understand it has a slot for a SIM card. Is it "unlocked" so my cellular company (ATT) would be able to put it on their network?

Unfortunately it does not. The part if the tablet that has that slot is the additional keyboard. Then, of course, once you sseparate the two, it is mo longer connected to your network

Yes, it's unlocked and it works on AT&T; network. Just get a sim card from Straight Talk at walmart.com.

It can be unlocked. It's better if you know someone who has an AT&T; account. So you won't have to pay. Or have to jailbreak the phone. You can find out more by going on the web. Type in Google and type in your questions.

This phone will function with all the company services that provides a SIM card. But keep in mind, this is a AT&T; unlocked version.

An "Unlocked" phone can use a SIM card from any provider. The phones you get for a discounted price from providers like AT&T, Sprint etc. are "Locked" so they will not accept a SIM card from any other cellular company. The reason this is done is so you do not take the free phone that the cellular company is providing you at a loss, terminate the contract and use the phone on a competing cellular company. Even after getting the early termination fees from you, the cellular company will still be out of pocket for the cost of the phone. An "Unlocked" phone has no such restrictions. You pay the full price for the phone and use it with any cellular service provider you like.

It is but unfortunately you would have to get it unlocked in order to use it on At&t;

It's unlocked from a specific cell carrier like ATT or TMobile. If it's wifi only not an issue.

Yes, it is unlocked. My phone came with the AT&T logo on the front cover but I have been able to use all its functions with no problems. Works perfectly well with chips from the three different carriers in my area---does multimedia, web, and email fairly fast. Keep in mind that the 3G bands for this phone are 850 and 1900 MHz, so your local provider must be on these bands. Nice little phone.

Since it is an AT&T phone, you don't need to have it unlocked to use on AT&T prepay. Just put in a prepay simcard are you are good to go. And, no, the phone is not unlocked in that it can't be used on networks other than AT&T.

I returned it before I got a chance to actually trying using a sim card. I think it would have to be unlocked for the network here though

Yes because it's AT&T , it has a sim slot. But if you're gonna go over seas, you need to unlock it first !

The phone is not unlocked. Unlocked phones will work on any cell network: Sprint, Verizon, AT&T. It is however contract free meaning if you have a current at&t contract this phone will work with your at&t sim card. If you are downgrading from a smart phone that has a smaller sim you will need to go into the AT&T store to get the standard SIM to fit the phone. Fear not of alerting at&t, this is not an unusual occurrence as sim cards typically wear out over time and most at&ts will replace without charge. Regarding the internet - if your current plan has a data package the phone will be able to connect to the mobile web browser using 3G or the fastest AT&T data connection available in your area. You do however have to pay an additional fee to download apps for GPS, email, advanced voicemail etc in addition you are only able to purchase them through the AT&T app store which has a relativity small selection and in my opinion largely over priced. Hope this answers your questions. All in all a solid AT&T phone in terms of call quality and signal
