Using an iPhone4s on Straight Talk?
My family and I use Straight Talk(Verizon based) and I'm considering buying a unlocked iPhone4s from a tech-store that sells them. I've looked at the BYOP page on Straight Talk and read online that Verizon tends to use CDMA rather than GSM.
My question is will my new phone work if I do go through and buy it? Or will I have to switch to GSM card? I don't want to spend $300+ on a phone to find out it's not compatible with my plan.
I'm not a tech-savvy person, so any and all "technology for dummies" help will be greatly appreciated.
Also, on the site it says "Note: This program will not work with 4G LTE technology phones, iPhones, Blackberries or branded Straight Talk, TracFone, Safe Link, NET10 Wireless, and Telcel America phones." Will that affect what I'm trying to do?
You would have to use an iPhone 4S from AT&T if you want to use it with Straight Talk, Verizon and Sprint ones are not allowed.
You will have to switch to GSM for your iphone to work. You can choose between AT&T or T-Mobile.
You can transfer your old number to the new phone and can also use your old plan. No worries.
Verizon and Sprint iPhones will not work with ST BYOP program.
