Cheapest phone that will work in USA & has MicroSD

MrMister111 · 05-04-2012, 11:35 PM

Im going to USA in summer, I have a Sensation XE, but don't want to take it with me as will get lost, dropped, and it won't be used, will be left in the safe all day.

So I want a phone, new or second hand, for sending texts when away, and for music on the plane over, so need to have a MicroSD slot for MP3s. Would probably want it to be unlocked to.

Cheaper the better really!

What GSM band do I need as well please

You need either TriBand or Quad Band.

This is quad. £25. All phones sold at CPW are unlocked handsets. You will probably have to buy a £10 top-up on a new SIM as well. Still cheap enough, even if you never use it.
