Available in a sky blue color, the SGH-T409 seamlessly makes and receives calls over a home Wi-Fi network with T-Mobile HotSpot @Home. While at home, customers can enjoy mobile coverage and unlimited domestic calling over Wi-Fi; while mobile, customers also can get the same benefits at all the nearly 8,500 T-Mobile HotSpot locations across the country. In addition, unlike with VoIP calling, when T-Mobile HotSpot @Home customers leave home or exit a T-Mobile HotSpot, their calls will transfer onto T-Mobile's GSM/GPRS/EDGE wireless network, giving people the freedom to continue their important conversations uninterrupted as they go about their day. Calls also transfer from T-Mobile's network onto Wi-Fi.

• T-Mobile Hotspot @Home can save minutes on service plans by using the Wi-Fi network for calls
• Bluetooth wireless technology lets users get handsfree convenience without wires and cables by connecting to headsets or car kits
• Integrated 1.3-megapixel camera to take and share photographs with family and friends

Which T-Mobile Wifi Phone?

Nokia 6086 is a better phone. Better sound quality, more features. Samsung (T409) has a better camera, and better organization. Its strength is in its larger screen and fewer strokes to text effectively. Sound quality on the Samsung is terrible (only 40 chords) compared to Nokia 6086 (60 chords). Max volume on the Nokia is also louder.
The Nokia also has a measurement converter that you can add your own conversions to, for you engineers. Samsung has a similar feature, but you cannot add to it.
Also, if I turn off the predictive text on the Nokia, it stays off. I have to turn it off each time I text on the Samsung. It resets to default of "on".
Samsung has auto back up of address book online. Nokia is not automatic, but you can still back up online.
