International Use
The Right Phone :
Networks around the world use different technology
and different radio bands. T-Mobile UK is a GSM network
on 1800MHz. To roam on a particular network you will
need a compatible phone.
Depending on the network there are three scenarios.
-
You can use your current phone
-
You must hire or buy a new phone but you can
use your current SIM card in it.
- You must hire or buy a new phone and new SIM card
In our country lists we’ll tell you what phones
are compatible with each network and where you can
hire or buy them.
Single/dual/tri band
The band is the radio frequency a network uses. T-Mobile
UK uses 1800MHz. All current T-Mobile phones are either
dual band (900/1800MHz) or tri-band (900/1800/1900MHz).
Some older phones may be single band (1800MHz).
Satellite phones
These are not dependent on land-based networks because
they send and receive signals via satellite. You can
use satellite phones across very wide areas; some work
worldwide.
What’s my phone?
Your phone’s manual will say what band(s) it
uses. Alternatively call the manufacturer or look
on their website.
