Is there any way to buy a cell phone in US and use it in Mexico country? Any way to do it?

does mexico use 1800mhx? or 900? or 1900?


The way forward is to find that out first and then purchase a phone that supports both the mexican network and your home network

There are several mobile communication systems in Mexico. The GSM-system is offered by Pegaso Comunicaciones y Sistemas, S.A. De C.V and Radiomovil Dipsa SA de CV.

They both use GSM 1900. At least Radiomovil has roamingparnters in USA: AT&T Wireless PCS, Cingular Wireless and T-Mobile USA.

For GSM, Mexico uses 1900mhz (TelCel)

Surely you can use your phone in mexico

What's the "forward" thing?
And, what's the "1800x, 900 and 1900 GSM stuff"?
Ok, but how do i do it? Do i buy a cell phone in Best Buy or something? Then, what company do i buy from: T-Mobile, Verizon, etc.?
Then how do i desactivate the cell phone company to use it here? Then how do i make the cell phone to work with a cell phone company over here and with the same costs, just like i bought a cell phone over here?

I think you only have to unlock it with a US SIM Card, and buy a Mexican SIM Card and use it. Telcel and Telefonica Movistar have GSM Service
