Home » Samsung Galaxy 4g Phone Case » Can i buy a phone with no contract changes in US and use it in China?? I thank it is not unlocked?

Can i buy a phone with no contract changes in US and use it in China?? I thank it is not unlocked?

Q. I want to buy Samsung Galaxy S II 4G Android Phone (AT&Tor other types of network) in USA ,it is with no no contract changes,does is mean I can use it in other SIM or can I use it in China ?? If not how can I use it in China?? And what kind type of network does the phone use ?? I want to use GSM and WCDMA in China.
Thank you !

A. The Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket (4G) supports botth: GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 and WCDMA 850 / 1900 / 2100

No contract stands for that the phone you buy doesn't require singing up for 2 year plan with service provider.

To use it in China you must to buy an unlocked phone, which means that the phone can be use with different GSM service providers. In that case you need to only slip in your active SIM card to activate the phone.

Original Question

are the samsung galaxy s3 and the 4g android the same size?
Q. I can't find any phone cases for my android so i was wondering if i can buy a samsung galaxy s3 case to fit it

A. LOL
No
The Galaxy S4 is HUGE compared to the S3, and people used to think the S3 was big.. lol You have to buy a case specific to the S4, if you get an S3 case it won't fit!

Original Question

Why is virgin mobiles signal strength so much weaker than sprint?
Q. I had sprint for two years. I had the photon 4g. I decided to switch to virgin because it's running off sprint towers and is much cheaper. With the photon i had decent service and got a strong 4g signal at my job and home, I always had many bars. When I went to virgin I bought their flagship Samsung galaxy victory 4g lte and expected signal strength to be the same since its running off the same service. That's not the case. I don't get a good signal at my home (which is where I had the absolute best signal) and at work. What's up with that? Is virgin limited or something? There is a sprint tower literally down the street from my home and i barely get a bar.

A. There's many factors to consider. I understand you had Sprint with another phone, but regardless Virgin Mobile using Sprint's cell towers, quality differs with different cellphones. Also its not a direct access to the network since its not Sprint itself. There will a slight network strength loss. What makes more of a difference is the cellphone. I saw the same situation between T-Mobile & Simple Mobile, Simple runs thru TMO's network. But once again what makes the difference is the device.
(& platforms- Android 1.5 (Donut),1.6 (Eclair), 2.1, 2.2(Froyo), 2.3.4, 2.3.5. 2.3.6, 2.3.7(Gingerbread), 3.0, 3.1 (Honeycomb), 4.0.1, 4.0.4 (Ice cream Sandwich, 4.1.0. 4.2.1(Jellybean) <--Different versions means different radios. Radios also determine network strength.
