Any unlocked phone can be used. Nokia is favorate among Myanmar users but other brands can also be used. You have to make sure your phone can accept any GSM card.

If yes, how much do they usually cost? I feel like it would just be easier if I can find a phone here that's good for Burma and bring it there with me. Thanks again!

I am trying to buy a cell phone for my mom so that she can buy a SIM card there. Someone told me that I can only use Nokia GSM, is that true? Also, can I just get any unlocked GSM that is unlocked? I found a Nokia GSM (unlocked) but has AT & T on it. I am afraid my mother might not be able to use it if I bought it. Here's the link, http://cgi.ebay.com/Touch-Screen-Unlocked-GSM-Cell-Mobile-Phone-AT-T-Mobile_W0QQitemZ150426299350QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCell_Phones?hash=item23061b2bd6 Thanks so much in advance. Hi,

Official rule is that you have to show your id or passport when you buy. 2. No top up available. 3. It depends on how advanced the technology is. At least the authority can track up to a certain point. 1. Official rule is that you have to show your id or passport when you buy.

For you to use in a phone from another country, you have to make sure they are GSM phone (phones from US are CDMA), and are not locked. Currently, there are new CDMA prepaid cards but they are quite expensive and not readily available and not very popular. You can call to other countries.
