Boost Mobile Galaxy S5 in Europe

Hey there all,

This might seem like a basic question, but here it goes. The Galaxy S5 (model G900P) that I have which is on the Boost network has a SIM Card slot in the back. I am traveling to Europe for work this summer, and need to have a phone available to me while I'm there. Is it possible to take my current phone, swap out the SIM card for one of the prepaid ones you can get from a European carrier, and away I go? Or is there something about this phone that is not compatible with taking it overseas, and I should opt to get a different phone for the trip abroad?

Thank you in advance for your assistance in solving this!!

Hello and welcome to Android Forums krispie treats :)

The Boost carrier minority variant, G900P, will be compatible with most European networks on 2G and 3G but will not work on most of the world's 4G/LTE networks. See, Will My Phone Work?
