In December, my wife and I are going to Europe for our 10th anniversary. We’re doing one of those fancy river cruises from Switzerland to Amsterdam. We love going to Europe, but we HATE paying international phone charges. Our daughter is staying in the states and we want to be able to talk to her whenever we want and vice versa. The solution to our problem is going to be an unlocked phone. So, since we are traveling so close to Christmas, I told my wife that I want to try an unlocked phone for the holidays.
What’s an unlocked phone?
An unlocked phone is a smartphone that is in no way tied to one specific carrier or contract. What that means is that you have the freedom to shop for all of the latest phones and plans as often as you want. Or, like me, you can buy one to just have for traveling purposes. When it comes to international travel, unlocked phones are the only way to go. Unlocked phones are becoming more and more popular here in the U.S. Why? Because of the freedom when it comes to a choice of models, carriers and plans. Click here to learn more.
