Question about buyin a phone online?

[gsmm0n]

Hey ... Got an interesting question... Im looking at buying a phone from ebay in Germany or ebay in another foreign country... However a friend who speaks these languages is helping me. Once I get the phone, should the phone have the english language in it? Or should I not expect this? I never thought if this but I suppose its a major detail since I cant read Korean too well . Thanks for everyones help!

I know that a lot of phoens do support mutliple languages, but I suppose it depends on the exact software installed on the specific phone. I am not really too sure, but I would imagine a good chance of English being an option, if only you can find the correct menu option to change the language to English if there is one

I'd agree; while there's no guarantee any given phone will have an English language option, a good many do.

The easy solution is to contact the seller first, and ask. If they say no (or if they don't respond!) then don't buy the phone.

make sure the phone will work in the US
