is it good for international travel?

Yes, I just used this in London and South Africa for 6 weeks, with no problems at all. Just make sure to bring the correct adapter for the countries you are visiting. I never blew anything, never failed to charge. I just got back September 2015. So to all those that said no, suspect they did not have the right adapter for the country they were in.

Yes, of course it's good for international travel. All you need is a converter from the places you're going to plug the unit into the wall.

One would need to plug this into an adapter. It is smaller than my previous surge protector for travel.
1758093
No. Even with a plug adapter, the surge protector part is a problem. I have blown circuits and adapters this way. First, I blew the adapter in India. Then, I plugged it in at the airport lounge in the U.S. and killed that entire circuit. Guilty.

No, it will only work in the US(110volts) but might also work in other parts of North America with up to 120volts, 15amps, 60hertz,1800watts. Other places out of the US might require to cut the Earth pin off or attach something to block that third pin in order to connect to an old wall outlet that supports only two pins

No, I thought the item was far too bulky to carry while travelling. In addition, you would need an international conversion plug and transformer as most overseas locations use 220 volts. Most travel converters say that they will handle upto 1800 watts, but they have only one plug outlet. I doubt that they would supply enough amperage to power three plugs and two USB connectors if you connected the Belkin surge protector into it. I had issues with this accepting power in Atlanta Hartsfield airport--not sure about the 180+ countries using 220 v.

not only can ikt be carried on, but it SHOULD. Some loser at Virgin Austrailia STOLE a friend's 12v apple charger and cord, so ALWAYS carry with your luggage. Lucikily I had this trent icruiser as a back up. TRAVELING TO us, Canada, Australia, New Zealand NO PROBLEM WITH ITRENT.

Yes it is. I have travelled so far in many international flights including Europe and US and I always had the bag as carry on with no problem.Actually it is a bit bigger than 17' laptop case with the plus that you can put a lot of items. Watch out the weight

Its fine for travel and that kind of use. A bit slow and windows 8 is a bit odd compared to windows 7.

Depends on how you travel and what you are willing to carry. I bought it specifically thinking it would be good for car travel. I doubt I would want to carry it on a plane, but if you don't have a load of other stuff it could serve that purpose. It might not be the best solution for that.

I bought this so I wasn't tethered to just one provider and could travel anywhere in the world without that provider controlling my usage. First, the devise will work anywhere in the world where you have access to WIFI. Second, the unit allows you to easily replace your USA sim card with one which works wherever you go - just check what size and local provider you need. For foreign travel you'll need an electric plug adapter to power up the devise. I needed a different one in Australia; Germany & Scotland. I head to Ecuador later this year and they use the same plug as in the USA.

I think it would be a good item for any trip, as it's small and easy to carry or pack. I like the field of view it offers, the only con is that it takes two hands to hold and turn the focus wheel that can be hard to turn. I like this item except for the one con mentioned.

I am not 100% sure however it works GREAT for overseas travel! I use it every Summer when I travel to Italy...
1251942
Yes, it is. In fact I would prefer a bigger one for international flights... you can pack a laptop and your photo equipment on this one but there is no room for any clothes or something else...

Yes it is and that was our main reason for getting it. So much lighter toting through airports than the Britax. We used it on several trips, different airlines, etc. with no problems.

Yes of course, so far i used in my country its realy good. The point is this phone is international version so can use where ever you are.

I think so - at least the specs say so. I've travelled to several places in Africa and had no problems
1602053
Absolutely. I use it in Spain several times a year and used it this year in Portugal. Safe travels.

Afshin, I travel across Africa somewhat frequently and it works fine. So it really should not be a problem for you. I simply pop in the required sim card (if I have one) of the country I am visiting.

Yes! I have traveled with it on long international flights (about 16 hours with one layover). It's like any electronic device such as iPad, laptop or another smaller charger. I used it while on long fights with no problems.
