Nexus 4 - US to EU

[SteelTurtle]

Hey
When I'm going to USA this summer, I'm thinking of buying a Nexus 4 while I'm there. I have a family in the US, so they'll just buy it for me straight from Google. Now, my question is: Will it work in Europe, or more specific: Denmark?
Thanks in advance!

yes, it will work. all you have worry about is getting EU charger

Given the Nexus 4 is:

A. GSM, and
B. Unlocked

you should have no problem whatsoever using it in Europe. As far as the charger is concerned, don't worry about it. Just find yourself a USB charger that provides 1.5 amps of service and you should be good to go.

Not only is it the same phone, the charger is the same internally. All you need is a cheap adapter to plug it into a European outlet since it's 100-240V.

I am a bit confused by these replies. It is my understanding that the Nexus 4 is sealed and that the SIM card cannot be replaced. So, how is it possible to use this phone in Europe (or anywhere outside the US) where, as I understand it, a new European (or country specific) SIM card is required?

Can the sealed SIM card in the Neux 4 be manipulated so that it thinks its in France, so to speak? If so, how is that accomplished?

Thanks,

Dan

No it is not sealed and uses a micro sim card on the side using a Sim tool to pop it out which should be included with the phone.

The battery is sealed, not the Sim card.
