当然 你的WECHAT是什么 发PM给我 我来加你
ANDROID 上的APP比IPHONE的多 而且传文件方便 就像WINDOWS一样 COPY AND PASTE
不像IPHONE 还要用ITUNE

看型号吧 你选好型号 再去PDA版问一下
应该不难 要不支持买INTERNATIONAL UNLOCKED版
反正我现在认为ANDROID比IPHONE好

2. No.
Unlocked phone doesn't tie to carrier. Getting a phone from a carrier is
locked, no matter per-paied or contracted.
Just go and buy an unlocked iPhone 5, if you are not using on CDMA(Verizon
wireless, Sprint, No SIM card) carriers. It's a lot more smooth than Android
. You need to restart Android device once awhile, and iphone never ask you
to do that.
If you use both, you would choose the iPhone.
Once you choose the phone, get the right size of the SIM card, regular size,
Micro-SIM, Nano-SIM, all different sizes.

三星能加卡 能换电池 IPHONE 不能换电池 转什么都要接个ITUNE
我的起码目前不常需要重启 可是每次转文件接个ITUNE 要是误操做 还会删资料
还是ANDROID好

| a*o 发帖数: 25262 | 11 Yes, factory unlocked from Apple, or ebay!! Just make sure the seller is
credible.
Or, if you get iphone from ATT or Tmobile, you need to ask them to unlock
for you. Not sure they will do that if you only have the phone for a short
time.
For the SIM card sizes, if you use the phone in China, I think they should
have all sizes..They are just different size, iphone 4 and iphone 5 use
different size of SIM card. Micro-SIM vs Nano-SIM. Google the SIM cards and
you will see.

慢慢会发现,加卡没啥用,能换电池也没啥用。。因为可以有格外充电的便带电池。。

| a*o 发帖数: 25262 | 14 I think Tmobile changed their business model. They don't provide subsidized
phones anymore (you have to pay for the phone) but you don't have 2-year
contract with them..
So..getting an unlocked phone elsewhere and paying the total price all at
once instead of paying $20 each month for the phone for 2 years.. plus you
have an unlocked phone.
Google sells an unlocked google android phone, Apple sells an unlocked
iphone.. you have choices.
