Not recently, a friend asked, Xiaomi mobile phone, Huawei mobile phone, Lenovo and other domestic machines can be used in Australia? Let's talk about whether mobile phones can be used in Australia, mainly mobile phone compatibility.

First of all, Australia's mobile phone network type, 4G network format and domestic Unicom, telecommunications is basically the same, so in the domestic use of Unicom, telecom 4G service phones, here is no pressure.

IPhone (Apple phone)

As the boss of mobile phones in the world, iPhone has always been very active in supporting network standards, so students who use iPhone do not have to worry at all. According to Oreo, most of the students who come to Australia use crazy love, and more people sign up to love madness. Maybe it has something to do with the lack of Android phones here.

Android handset

Now Android is almost all Netcom, all Netcom phones in Australia is very OK.

However, Android phones are the hard-hit area for custom-made machines, and mobility can limit the type of mobile network it supports through hardware or software. (so it's recommended not to use a custom machine.)

In the domestic use of the mobile customization machine, the words need to pay special attention!

If only through the software shielding, you can lift the restrictions, this needs to do it yourself, or turn to all-purpose Taobao

Because Google services are not available at home, some home-made Android phones have castrated Google frames and can try to install Google framework solutions when they find they can't be used by Google Maps and other Google family buckets.

Dual card and dual standby cell phone

Some students may only stay here for a year or two, or short boarding, or study abroad, and so on, the domestic mobile phone number is bound to a variety of accounts, do not want to stop the domestic number. Therefore, international roaming will be opened to receive the authentication code, so that there are two cell phone cards. So what do we do?

Of course, two iPhone, ah, you can choose a dual-card dual-standby mobile phone, dual-card dual-standby mobile phone usually can only support 2G/3G (the Australian 3G and Unicom 3G basically the same), the Australian side of the 2G has been closed. Therefore, the secondary card can only support 2G mobile phone will not receive the signal, when the need to receive the verification code, the need to switch the domestic card to the main card.

Summary: telecommunications and mobile customization machines are not available, incompatible with Australia's network. Three Netcom's WCDMA-style mobile phone is available.

Generally: you can use Unicom 3G=WCDMA = can be used abroad

However, some China Mobile customized iPhone models can not use Unicom 3G at home, but they can be used normally abroad, which is recommended to contact operators for confirmation.
