Samsung r810c Finesse - Straight Talk
Welcome to my Samsung Finesse r810c Review site! I’ve done an in-depth review of the Straight Talk version of the Finesse, and posted my opinions on this site. I really got into a lot of detail on this phone, so I broke it out into several different pages.
It’s probably a little overwhelming if this is your first time visiting this site, so I’ve created an index here to help you find your way. Below are links to the relevant posts from the archives, along with a brief explanation of what’s contained on each page.

Hi James
I pay about $10 a month for hosting, and that covers this and several other sites. I use powweb, but I’m not thrilled with them since it seems like they don’t have the fastest page load times. There might be some cheaper options out there, like bluehost, for example. Also, I’ve never tried it, but I’ve heard that squarespace makes it really easy to set up a nice-looking site. I believe they have plans starting at $8. If you want to go completely free, try wordpress.com or blogger. Both offer the option of having a custom url, although they may require a one-time fee of about $10 for that, too. With either of those, though, you’ll lose some flexibility.

I have the samsung finesse. Getting thru to customer service is ridiculous!! They are idiots! Finesse has no ring,graphics or games available thru their website because it isn’t supported. I had this phone less than 30 days and the website is still under maintainence!!!The rep lied and said he updated it to receive web games graphics etc.. but of course..NO SUCCESS!!! The coverage and talk is good but the $30 dollar plan is a lie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your 1000 pic/txt messages I was told, depends on if you use up your 30MB or not!! Such a bald faced LIE! $45 plan is only way I can send/receive them.(PIC?TXT) after using up internet on $30 plan!!!!!

i have a dare right now and it’s constantly but dialing and i’m not in the mood to constantly set the pin and lock feature.
what is the but dialing threshold on the finesse and other straight talk phones? it’s my biggest concern and, of course, the cost..
thanks much

I have this fone from straightalk and what I like is the nifty fone and camera and that there is no contract that I am locked into – I only pay for the calls that I make
