Yes you can use it in Turkey since its Quad band but u can't use 3G service since the frequency is tuned to match ATT network. Inshort phone will work if u have GSM(Sim card based) but not 3G data services.

It says this in the description: "This unlocked cell phone can be used with a GSM network service provider and it provides quad-band connectivity (850/900/1800/1900 MHz)." However, I'm not sure how accurate that is. I can't find anything in a quick Google search.

This phone is an unlocked Quad-Band GSM Dual SIM phone and is compatible with 850/900/1800/1900 mHz frequencies (Both SIMs). If the country in Asia has these frequencies, then this phone will work there.

The international S3 is a Quad Core and the US version is a Dual Core. Beware that the international versions will not work on 3G or 4G speeds. I just got bit by this. My son's S3 will only work on the slowest network speed (EDGE). I spent a fair amount of time with the T-Mobile Advanced Tech folks and they said the frequencies of the phone would work but the Branding of the phone prevent the fast connection speeds. I was told that the cell provider can determine if your phone is not from them and they purposely limit the speed. The vendors selling international phones on Amazon are not being forthcoming with this information. Be Careful!!! The international S3 is a Quad Core and the US version is a Dual Core.

As an unlocked quad band phone it is capable of working with any GSM Carrier inside and outside the U.S providing their services using a SIM Card. However, we can only guarantee basic call and text, we recommend contacting your Carrier and making sure they provide their services to this model phone without any restrictions.

Yes. it applies in other countries because it is a quad-band along with 3G. With quad-band and 3G it has a slot to insert the chip from other countries.

I work for Nokia and wanted to answer the questions in this thread. The Nokia N900 is an unlocked quadband GSM device with tri-band WCDMA meaning it will work on almost any GSM network in the world for voice and data including AT&T; and T-Mobile USA. The Nokia N900 utilizes the 900/1700/2100MHz network for 3G capabilities. These network bands are compatible with T-Mobile USA's 3G network, among others that use this spectrum. We have not announced a version of the Nokia N900 that supports AT&T;'s 3G network.

The Global GSM version of Moto E should work with all GSM carriers. It supports the following bands: UMTS 850/900/1900/2100; and GSM 850/900/1800/1900. The global version is not a good choice if you wish to get 3G on band 4 carriers (UMTS 1700), such as T-Mobile in the US - instead buy the US GSM version. (Release date: June 3.) It's always best to check with your carrier before purchasing. Please note that the amazon.com Moto E purchased from the US site is only warranted in the US. This is a single SIM phone. There are dual SIM versions in some countries/regions but not in the US.

The only difference between the USA version and the international version is the terms of warranty. The model bought in the USA will have a warranty that is valid only in the USA. Since this is a Penta-band phone, it will work allover the world no matter which country you purchased it in. Hope that helps. Don't forget to register your device with Nokia once you receive it.

The phone's specs say *"Unlocked quad-band GSM cell phone compatible with 850/900/1800/1900 frequencies plus GPRS/EDGE capabilities" If the carriers' systems in those 2 countries use those bands and frequencies, I think the phone should work. It would be best to check with those cell phone carriers and ask them what they have there.

Thanks for your reply. I just want to use it in Europe. What exactly is this 3G?Basically my question is whether I have a major disadvantage from buying the US version instead of the international version. Is there anything the international version has which I need or which is one of the best features of this phone which I could not use with the US version in Europe?thanks for your help!

Great phone. My dad bought it with the main intention to use it abroad... However, it worked just fine in the states too as long as you have your SIM card in the appropriate slot, because each slot has dual band only. In other words, if your SIM card doesnot work in one slot you would have to take it out and reinsert into another one. Hope it helps

This phone is a quad-band GSM phone. If India uses ashy of the 4 bands, you're good to go if you use an India SIM card. Full specs for the phone may be viewed at http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_6350-2950.php

Quad band so will work almost anywhere at 2G. However 3G is probably hit or miss depending on your selected carrier.

Dear customer, yes the Samsung B2100 is a quad-band phone that can be used in any country that supports the GSM networks. Prior the purchase please check what network the carried you are planing to use supports. If you are planning to buy a pre-paid GSM SIM card at the airport for example, you can buy the phone safely.Best regards,Customer SupportZezoo Store
