I am new to this forum and have not found an answer to my question.
I travel the world as a retired person using an old PC with a "plug in" dongle that allows me to use a local SIM card to access the internet. Old technology but it works. My old Nokia E71 allows me to use a local SIM card and call as well.
Now I want "new technology" - the Samsung Galaxy Tablet S3 with LTE capability.
I can purchase "unlocked" ones on Ebay in the USA and others in Europe and in Dubai - but I have NO ASSURANCES they can work world wide using a different country's SIM card to prevent roaming charges from (say Etisalat in Dubai).
Samsung in Dubai, UAE tells me their model of this S3 will not work outside the GCC and North Africa. There seems to be no point in buying one there.
What to do to purchase/modify a Galaxy S3 tablet with LTE?
Can anything be done to "unlock" a Tablet S3 with LTE to provide worldwide capability?
I am currently in Hanoi, Vietnam and such a device would be much better than my old PC. For now, I must use older (and heavier) technology.
TIA for any info.
