The service: New phones coming to Straight Talk very soon there will be a 4G phone coming out on Straight Talk called the LG Optimus 2X this phone will be the first 4G phone. The 4G coverage has been sepculated to be one the AT&T network. The Network coverage is either on Verizon™, AT&T or Sprint networks this coverage depends on which phone model you select. The phone handsets range in price with the least expensive phones lacking in some modern Internet features, to the Nokia and some Samsung model phones that have full 3G and application support. Currently the Nokia phones that are on offer from Straight Talk are the only phones that let you watch Youtube over the 3G connection. Other models don't let you watch youtube at all, or are locked down requiring that you use a WiFi connection to stream the Samsung T528G is an example of this. Updated 8/24/2011. Thanks Gabe for pointing out there was some data that needed updating :)
