Post subject: Do South African cellphones work in China?
Hi,

I have a mobile phone - Samsung V200 - in South Africa.
Will it work in China if I buy a pay as you go sim card?

Thanx.

No Danger, it should work providing the network you are with hasn't placed a lock on the phone (very unlikely since you are on a pre-paid system.) You can pretty much pick a pay as you go sim up on any street corner for about R90...hope this helps mate...Cio
