As long as the bands are supported in your area it should work fine.

Yup, check what band your carrier uses and see if the ion supports it. Here in honduras my carrier uses 850 band for 3g and gprs, my ion gets signal and 3g just fine.

You should be good. I went to the UK and Singapore with an unlocked Nexus One and it worked great. Just got my unlock code for my T989 as I have a trip to Sweden in 2 weeks. I used Giff-Gaff in the UK and Starhub in Singapore. Study the carriers frequencies before you go and buy a pre-paid sim and you will be good to go.

This phone is not pentaband which means it isn't guaranteed to work on 3g for all carriers. It does have 4 of all 5 bands, the only one you're missing is 900mhz so depending on where in Europe you're going you'll have 3g. You'll have to check the specific carrier you plan on using and as long as they support one of the bands, you'll be fine. (meaning they don't only use the 900 bands for 3g)
This will help. Still trying to find the site I used that told the carriers frequencies.

LT28i= international 3g, H, Lte
LT28h= international 3g, H
LT28at= USA at&t 3g, H(at&t calls H 4g), Lte
from my LT28at, rooted and eating an Ice Cream Sandwich
Also depends if lte is available in your area. Just stating the obvious i guess.

Hi I'm a newcomer here.
I'm going to US for a 10 days trip recently so I'm choosing a SIM card now. Tmobile prepaid card could be a good candidate but the only problem is that the prepaid card says I need a WCDMA 1700mHz supported phone. I'm using a NTT Docomo SC-04D(Japanese version of Galaxy nexus). Does this phone support 1700mHZ? I've googled a lot but they give different answers.
Any other advice on choosing SIM card is appreciated. I'll stay in U.S for 10 days with one gnex and probably one HP veer. Data plan is top priority.
Thanks in advance.
I have an unlocked NTT DoCoMo gnex and it works just fine on T-Mobile. You might need to unlock it tho, not too sure.

Thanks.
Yes it's unlocked since I'm not using it in Japan. So 3G on WCDMA 1700 is working just fine on your gnex? What's your data plan?
Yeah everything works. I have HSPA+ on T-Mobile prepaid

Hello all, first of all I'd like to say I did try searching but I think I ended up confusing myself even more. My friend from Brasil would like to buy this http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Sony-Mobile---Xperia-ZL-Smartphone-3G---Black/1306937762.p?skuId=1306937762&contract_desc=&sellerId=34492929&productCategoryId=pcmcat156400050037&id=mp1306937762#tab=overview and use it in Brasil because it's half the price of the ZQ. This is the C6502 but as I understand it, the ZQ version sold in Brasil is the C6503? From the information I gathered, he'd only be able to use 3g on this phone. I just need some clarification for my friend so he doesn't waste all his money. Thank you!:laugh:
Hi @cmjkxa, i'm from Brazil, and i brought my Xperia ZQ 2 days ago, on my phone the 4g connection Works normally fine, but i think the Xperia ZL will not work, since the only diference of the ZQ from ZL is the LTE Connection, i recommend he to buy ZQ if he want to use 4G, i bought my phone for R$1500 here

That is pretty much correct... The C6502 has a different network modem with 2G/3G only and it also includes an extra sensor (barometer) while the C6503 has a 2G/3G/4G modem which includes the 4G band used here in Brazil (2500 MHz).
Regardless of that, he should be able to use the C6502 here without any problems, just only without a 4G connection (something I don't even use due to the prohibitive cost of 4G from the carriers and the very weak coverage)

Hi everyone,
I am searching the Sony sites and think the Premium Dual is only for some far east markets, for example Indonesia and Malaysia.
Can't find it on the Japanese and UK Sony sites.
I also can't find the different model numbers but will keep searching!
Edit - found these now. E6833, E6853, E6883 (Dual), SO-03H
I am interested in the dual sim model!
Ofiaich
To add to this, i believe E6853 has greater Lte band compatibility than E6833
I'm also interested in dual sim and does the 2nd sim double as sd card?
I'm on EE uk and which model would be best.
Sony UK told me on the phone today that the Premium Dual will not be sold in England.

From another thread in this forum the dual Sims sit in one tray, the micro sd in another.
