I need to make sure this phone will work in Europe (UK and Belgium) as well as the USA? Is it really unlocked AND quad-band?

works fine in USA except it always shows the voice mail alert. What good is 3g you cant really surf the net with it. Have had mine for 2 years with no problem its been in pools, scuba diving, glasses of beer to prove to others its waterproof and dropped alot. Bought my step dad one also and he loves it. i have at&t.;

I can answer part of your question. The phone must work in the UK because, though I'm in the US, when I had a question, US support gave me the UK support number to call. Samsung said the phone is a UK product (which surprised me; I was under the impression it was made in Germany).

The is actually made to be used in Europe. The 3g settings are for outside the United States so inside the United States it actually will only work on 2g. Its a good phone for callingf and texting. I don't use mine for internet.

Without doing some research this phone will work in the US but definitely is not set up for ATT 3G (the carrier I used). It's unlocked and seems to be more set up for european bands. It may work on T-mobile 3G. I would guess that you can get EDGE service anywhere in the world on this phone though. I just made do with 2G coverage wheni was using it. Hopefully that's not too disorganized and answers your questions.

Yes, mine worked just fine in the UK and France. Go to Settings, Network, Network mode and you can select Automatic or specifically pick the bands.

yes, that is because the European one is for European dual band and USA one is for USA dual band. That means you cannot use that phone in EU if you bought it in the USA and vice-verse. You will be better off buying unlocked quad-band phone on ebay or amazon, but before you buy it check independent sites to make sure it is quad band (or at least tri-band).In EU it is very common to have phone where you change the SIM in your unlocked phone to save money on roaming charges (depending what country you are at, since there is many more countries in EU than in North America).

Hi Frank,this is unlocked GSM phone which should work pretty much anywhere - i used in Costa Rica, my friends used similar model in Germany and Italy.I am planning on taking it to England and France this summer. Since it is quad-band - it should support pretty much any GSM network in the world.I found it to be very convenient. Hope this helps.

Yes it does, im from europe. It is quad band- works anywhere in the world. Factory unlocked. Don't use adapter, buy the whole charger if you get it with 110v american charger, it works a lot faster then having 110v charger on adapter

if its unlocked u can use anywhere in the world, as long as the band is supported by the provider, as most of the phones are quad band. this supposed to work

The best way to check is to find out the band-width in those continents you mentioned. Since this phone is Quadband, so I would assume it should work anyplace. At least, it works in both Asia and America.

This phone is an unlocked Quad-Band GSM Dual SIM phone and is compatible with 850/900/1800/1900 mHz frequencies (Both SIMs). If the country in Asia has these frequencies, then this phone will work there.

if it was tri-band....I'd say I'm not sure....but this phone is a quad band so therefore it should work. My girlfriend traveled to Spain, Italy and London with hers and it worked great.

This is a quadband phone and can be used anywhere in the world. I use it with my ATT sim and also my Vodafone sim from Spain. I am not sure what phone company you have. I know the phone is unlocked but not sure it is compatible with all sims.

As this is a quad band unlocked GSM phone, don't see why it shouldn't work throughout Europe/Middle East/Asia, as long as you insert a local cell service provider SIM card. But remember this is a basic phone, no bluetooth, wifi, or camera/video; only calls & text!

Yes this is an unlocked phone, as a quad band it is also capable of working outside the U.S

It says this in the description: "This unlocked cell phone can be used with a GSM network service provider and it provides quad-band connectivity (850/900/1800/1900 MHz)." However, I'm not sure how accurate that is. I can't find anything in a quick Google search.
