Buying Phone On Ebay - What Will Work In Thailand?

[rcox81]

I am looking to buy a phone on eBay but I am not sure what to look for, in terms of what will work in Thailand and what will not. I am seeing a lot of phones that are "jailbroken" or "unlocked"

Will these work with a regular Thai SIM card? What should I be looking for?

That's all you need one that's unlocked. Pop in the Thai SIM card and away you go.

Unless its a CDMA phone like Verizon or Sprint then they won't work

If your buying from USA And it is branded and you want to use 3G then you need a AT&T phone for true and Dtac and a T-Mobile phone for AIS or you need a phone that supports all bands like a 4s

How about W-CDMA? I take it that this is supported?
