A:AnswerIf you purchase this phone and take the phone to Cricket, they will allow you to purchase a sim-card attached to your account for it from anywhere from $5-$10.00. Sorry about losing your phone mate.
A:AnswerYes it does. My old phone was a cricket phone and I saved by not paying their upgrade fee. It comes with a sim card which i needed because my other phone's sim didn't fit the Coolpad.
A:AnswerNot really, These phones are designed to work on WiFi (cuts down on data usage), and to have full Internet access. They are smart phones after all. While you can go into Settings and turn off WiFi and Data, it's that easy for someone else to go in and turn them back on.
You might want to take a look at this blog entry for some options - MyMoneyBlog.com and search for "Talk & Text Only Cell Phone" in their custom search box. About the fourth or fifth entry will be "Lesser-Known Cheap Talk & Text Only Cell Phone Plans on Every Network – From $1 a Month" or use your favorite search engine and search the Internet for "These 6 ‘Dumb Phones’ Let Your Kids Talk, Text, and, Well, That’s It" this search will also point you to at least one other similar blog entry on Fatherly.com that could be helpful.
The Light Phone 2 might also be an option.
Good luck.

A:AnswerI believe so because we transferred everything from my son's old phone to his new phone, then he downloaded and used email and apps once he connected to Wi-Fi and he did that even before I called to activate it. So I'm going to say yes you can.
A:AnswerMatt,
Thanks for your answer,but my face got distorted in some pictures if I was holding the camera too close to my face,but others were good further away,but you can't tell how close up you are when taking the selfies.
