Thanks! Any suggestions for other phones? I'm using the galaxy nexus (Verizon) here in the states, but I'm assuming that won't work overseas right?

You can get the international HTC One X but I had one and it isn't no where near as good as the SG3....lots of software problems that I encountered but the hardware is excellent.

Not unless the country has cdma and Verizon has a roaming agreement there. The Verizon Galaxy SIII will however have global roaming capability which Verizon said they'll enable at a later date. Who knows if it's like the Rezound where it seemed to be unlocked out of the box and not actually require an update.

You can get the AT&T S3. It will roam on GSM/HSPA+ all over the world, AND, when you're in the US, you can use LTE.

Indeed, your Nexus will not work in most of the world

Hi - now that the Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III has been out for awhile, can somebody please confirm if they have been able to successfully use an international local SIM card in a GSM country? I need to use it in Europe and would like to know if it can happen, or does it require a software update that's still yet to come. Many thanks in advance.
