GS3 Sim card use abroad

[LeeUHF]

Hey guys,

Im from the UK (T-Mobile UK network) and Im travelling for a month to the USA.

Im not interested in getting an international call plan set up (Long story) So when I go away Im thinking why dont I just buy a USA pay as you go Sim card for internet use.

Will It be possible to just use my phone abroad with an American SIM card?

As long as your phone's unlocked to any network it'll work. You'll have to check which us carriers use the same frequencies as the international s3 though.

Brilliant. First things first. Ill get it unlocked.

any idea how to find out the frequency carriers?

Cellular frequencies - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You'll need a carrier which supports gsm so that's either at&t or T-Mobile

I found a pretty good looking deal on the wallmart website for a PAYG sim
