Description
The T401g is basically the same phone as the R451C that has been available for some time, of course the main difference is that the new t401g is for the GSM coverage area. This should make alot of Straight Talk customers very happy because this expands the excellent Straight Talk coverage area to include GSM customers. Like the R451, this phone has a good 1.3 mega pixel camera and expandable microSD memory card (up to 16gb). The T401g also expands on the 451 features by adding video recording capabilities. Yet another cool thing is that it is one of the few phones that is data cable enabled so transferring images and music is a breeze with the Samsung Data cable. All in all, this (like the 451) is an excellent all around phone. Those who enjoy texting will find the slide out qwerty keyboard particularly useful and those who enjoy music on the go will really like the easy to use mp3 player..
Phone Look and Feel
The look and feel of the T401g is excellent. The gloss black body makes it quite stylish and unlike some of the lower end phones, this one has a high quality heavy feel to it. The main numeric keypad is made of hard durable plastic and are very easy to use. The slide out keyboard engages very smoothly and can easily be extended with one hand. About the only negative is that the keyboard does not lock so some sort of carrying case is a must when carried someplace where it will be tossed around. The QWERTY keyboard also has a high end quality feel with soft rubber buttons that are easy to press and feel nice on the fingers. They are spaced just right to minimize finger fumbling. Another nice thing about the QWERTY keyboard is that it is very intuitive making it easy to switch from upper case to lower case to numeric. Like the rest of the phone, the screen is high quality and protected by hard plastic for extra durability. Overall, the phone has a modern, high end quality feel to it so you can be sure it will last you quite a while and you will not be embarrassed to carry the T401g around.
MP3 Player
T401g has suprisingly good MP3 player functions. You will need a microSD card to store your music because the phone does not have internal storage capacity. For transferring files, you will need either a data cable or sd card reader. Like the rest of the phone, the MP3 player is easy to use with intuitive functions. Once engaged, you simply use the main navigation keys for playlist navigation. The interface will display song length, play time , song name and artist if it is encoded on the mp3 file. Another cool thing is the ability to change display settings. The phone offers 4 visual settings including a simple view, equalizer, album art and lyrics. Other nice player features include the ability to create play lists based on artist, albums, genres or custom play list. You can listen to your mp3s either through the phone speaker or headphones. You will need to find head phones with a 2.5mm jack or a 2.5mm adapter. All in all, the mp3 option is awesome and really makes this phone worth owning. The 16gig capacity makes it very easy to have plenty of songs on hand.

can GSM be changed to cdma?
I am having a tough time finding a phone that you can download and use apps on for my area. I just discovered through reading different things on phones that gsm uses t-mobile and at&t and we don't have coverage for either up here. Is there anyway to switch a phone from gsm to cdma aka verizon so I can use a gsm phone? I really really want the nokia e71 for work and tried to comment on there, but it would not let me. So I picked another gsm phone to ask my question on. Please answer soon. I was all set to submit my request to the ad council at the meeting on tues (tomorrow), but now need to find a different phone. Help me.
my samsung 401G
This is my fourth Samsung phone with straight talk!! Every one that I have had just stops working. I have charged it, taken out the battery, and the sim card - nothing. It acts like it wants to turn on, but cuts back off. I did not drop it or get it wet. Like I said, this is the fourth time - since Jan. 2011. I think this is a little crazy. Any ideas? It always takes them 2 weeks to replace the messed up phone and then another couple of days for them to figure out how to transfer my same number to another of the exact same phones. Please help!!

accessories
I have recently switched from Verizon to Straight Talk. There were a few different reason, 1. NO Contract 2. Unlimited Talk, Text and Web for a great deal less than Verizon. 3. The coverage is as good a Verizon it most areas and BETTER in others. 4. SD Card, no verizon phones have SD Cards.
However, now I am trying to find a headpone accessory for my phone and cant find what I am looking for. I want to be able to listen to my MP3 player with headphones, the plug is the same one as the charger and I cannot find it. If anyone can help with that info please post it. Thank you.
