Hi guys,
Will be going to Japan next month.
Was wondering whether I can use my Samsung Galaxy S3 over there?
Would be great if someone can list out the compatible phone make/models.
Thanks!

Ahh okie, thanks for the info!As long as your phone, under the network 3g -> having 2100, you should be fine. For your info:- Japan Coverage As you can see, there's not GSM network but only 3g. Next question: Which is the best prepaid to get for data? I reckon I'll be using more data than voice/sms over there. |

QUOTE(echoesian @ Oct 29 2012, 12:37 PM) What time is the last train/bus schedule? BTW, I plan to travel with my spouse and a 2 year old child, is it ok to bring small kid to Japan ? last bus/train is 12am AFAIK.Depends on what you plan to do there... Getting around Tokyo is no problem via their very extensive rail network. But bear in mind, the trains do get packed around rush hour. So carrying your kid in a crowded train MIGHT be a problem. Depending on where you stay and where you want to go, most destinations are within 20-30mins. Inclusive of changing trains. Other than that, I'd say Tokyo is very child friendly. If you're going to Osaka, Hokkaido, or any other part of Japan, it shouldn't be a problem |

QUOTE(echoesian @ Oct 29 2012, 05:08 PM) Actually the objective of this trip is to explore Tokyo - shopping, sightseeing, etc... for 7D5N.. the reason not to travel to Osaka/Kyoto is because I'll be bringing a kid there.... do u think it's wasteful not to explore to other cities instead of just Tokyo? Do you think 7 days in Tokyo alone will be too much ? Btw, which area of Tokyo has a good central location with nearby MRT with a decent price around RM300++ per night? If you like seeing the outskirts of Japan, then you definitely need to go to places like Kyoto etc, otherwise.. there is lots to see i Tokyo itself.Added on October 29, 2012, 5:10 pm Is there any hassle taking the city train with all the luggages because my feeling is that the Tokyo's city train is hugely packed with peoples? Added on October 29, 2012, 5:13 pmIs Tokyo within the Fukuyama radiation zone? Is it safe to travel to Tokyo next year? If you plan on going to Disney Sea and Disney Land, those 2 places will already take up one full day EACH. Basically anywhere in Tokyo is very near some form of train Station. Best is to stay in places like Shibuya, Shinjuku. You can get around Tokyo just by using the JR Line. Which stop at all the major stations. QUOTE(stimix @ Oct 29 2012, 07:20 PM) The are midnight limousine buses to Tokyo-lah.. check 1st page. price will be almost doubled the normal rate so a 900yen normal rate probably cost ~1600yen/pax by bus. Really?? Damn.. I guess we got screwed over bigtime.. Otherwise, just sleep overnite in the airport. just on those chairs will do By taxi, the rate will be fixed too.. can't be so high as RM500 as I can see brochure advertising fixed midnite taxi at ~6000yen (RM240) In Japan, transportation cost is not cheap even using MRT.. imagine min rate per stn already ~160yen or RM6.50! |
