Does this work in Afghanistan with a local sim card? And if it doesn't, which device works the best?

I do not know. We got this device through Verizon. You may want to ask them.

I'm not sure about that, but it did work good with a SIM from the US, good luck!

yes it works globally. for the sim card, you,d better use local operator's because of low internet fees.

it works with a sim card, but that wasn`t without me going through some stress. I cant say if it will work in Peru, I used in USA. The major problem with it is that the touch screen freezes easily, and that is indeed a pain in the ass.

yes my wife traveled to another country, used it with a LOCAL SIM card for 2 weeks to access internet with her laptop, it worked really well.

Yes it will! It really is a great phone! Especially with the internet! You can do so much with it... Im in Afghanistan and it worked like a charm. So I hope this helps you.

Yes it does work (at least Im sure it does with Telcel and Movistar) and I didnt have any trouble using the 3G network there.

Although it's always best to order one through your network provider, any device will accept your providers SIM card. As far as working worldwide, that would depend on what type of plan you have.

Hi.. you must insert an active simcard in it in order for the device to work. So for example, you can place the simcard of a data-line of the network provider in your country and it will work. However, if you travel, you need to have a simcard of the network provider in this new country, otherwise it will be condiered "data roaming" wich usually costs tones of money.

Diane, When I got mine while I was in Afghanistan, It was suppose to be unlocked and it wasn't and I never got anyone to help me with this. So I got so mad.. I just threw mine away.. but it does use any card like from Verizon, or any other place can help you..

Just moved to Ethiopia and it's been working great. You might have a problem obtaining a local 3G SIM card, though. They are not readily available to the general public.

You have to use a sim card for data in the country you stay, then it works fine. I have Sim card for Norway, abNd very seldomuse it abroad. There I normally use wifi.

It is unlocked, it is quad band, and it takes a SIM card, so the only thing you'll need to do is insert your SIM card from China Mobile or similar and it should work.

Yes, it works with a sim card. I don´t know if in Perú works, I´m in Uruguay, I suppose it does also in other countries....

It worked in Kyrgyzstan, and Kuwait. So it should work anywhere else. It has the big SIM card that most phones, except the newer IPhones use.
