Yes xD

 

(sorry if I couldn't say the thing correctly :P)

As long as the bands supported are the same then yes you should be fine.

Chances are they are since stuff is standardized over most of Europe.

Hi there guys :D

 

I'm just wondering if I buy a SIM-Free phone from Amazon UK / DE / FR / ES, will I have any issues using it in Portugal?

 

Thanks ;)

Sim free as in without a sim?

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

Yes. Basically, not restricted to a certain company, such as Orange / Verizon.

Yes.

That usually means that it is limited to one carrier

will you be using the same carrier?

EDIT: do you mean unlocked?

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

If its unlocked it should work on all networks. Do you have a link of where you bought it?
