International Use

[mrwaku]

Hey folks,

So I'm considering buying a Google Nexus 4 in the near future.
My question is thus:

I live in Canada, but I work in Italy for six months of the year.
Is it possible for me to buy a 'pay-as-you-go' sim card for Canada and then swap it out for an Italian sim card when I go back to Italy?
Would it muck up the system putting two sim cards in the phone?

Thanks for any advise you can offer.

No problems with what you're trying to do. Just remember to get the right size SIM.
Swapping SIM cards won't muck anything up.

It will work perfectly as it has all the international bands and as you said it uses as sim it obviously is a GSM provider.
IT will work great enjoy your trip.

Well now, I am most sold on this here phone!

I was hesitant because I didn't know if it would work what with all the different wave-lengths and what-not.

Thanks for your help!!

You might consider Truphone: Welcome to Truphone. Besides having a single SIM for both countries, there are advantages such as having a local number to make it easier and cheaper for people to reach you.
