I travel a lot, are there phones that work worldwide? Answer: Yes, but only GSM and satellite technology phones do. Of course, the cheapest solution is GSM, which is the most popular worldwide standard. A certain number of GSM phones are compatible with all 3 GSM frequencies: Europe’s 900 and 1800 bands and North-America’s 1900 band. It means that using such a phone, you can roam worldwide and seamlessly. Of course, the rates may be significantly higher when using the phone in another country so inquire about rates before buying a phone and plan. If you travel often to the same location, to avoid paying the high roaming fees when abroad, you may also want to buy one of these worldwide phones &unlocked&, so it can be used freely with a cellular company in the visited country and with another company in your home country, since local service is cheaper.
