A:AnswerYes, the phone does have a gyroscope sensor in it.; in fact, that was one of the reasons we purchased this one. My daughter wanted to play Pokemon Go and we were all using relatively cheap phones that were pretty old. In researching the game, one of the requirements to make full use of the features in the app was that the phone needed to have a gyroscope. It works very well with that app.
A:AnswerMaybe. It definitely supports Verizon but Total Wireless and Straight talk have had issues with activation. If you find a total wireless store then maybe you could.
