I
have a GSM cell phone will it work overseas?
Maybe.
Over 90 percent of the GSM phones sold in the United States
of are GSM 1900 only and so will not function overseas. If
your phone is GSM and capable of function on either the 900
and/or 1800 frequency then your phone will work overseas.
Of course you can
always purchase an international GSM cell phone by

I have a GSM tri-band (900/1800/1900) phone will the
prepaid SIM cards work in my phone?
They will if your
GSM cell phone is SIM unlocked. Ask the dealer who sold you
your phone if it is SIM locked or unlocked. If your GSM cell
phone is unlocked then any SIM card in the world will work
in your phone.
If your phone is SIM locked it will NOT work with any other
SIM card prepaid or otherwise.
Some of the phones are GSM 900/1800
and some of the phones are GSM 900/1800/1900 and still some
other phones are GSM 900/1900. What is the difference and
what phone should I get?
A world cell phone
is one that operates on the GSM 900/1800/1900 frequencies
and provides the greatest amount of geographical cell phone
coverage possible. Of course the biggest appeal to North
Americans is the ability to use these world cell phones with
GSM network operators in the US, Canada and Mexico. But for
South America one need also to have 850 GSM .
If you only plan
on using the GSM cell phone outside of North and South
America then all you would need to purchase is a GSM
international cell phone capable of operating on the GSM
900/1800 frequencies. However this should not necessarily
preclude a tri-band GSM world cell phone capable of
operating on the GSM 900/1800/1900 frequencies.
I purchased a GSM cell phone that only included a charger
that will not work in the United States. How can I charge my
cell phone before I depart?
Generally most of
the GSM phone have 110-220 volts travel chargers but in case
it just 110 volt you need to buy step up transformer .
you can buy Stepup transformer but click here
