Guys


I am quite new here and I am wondering if you could help me on cellphone network.

To make it easy, what cellphones would work in canada. Canada by the way uses 800(850)/1900 network. Could you give me some particular cell that i must bring with me.

I also researched that some tri-band phones have 800/1800/1900 network while others have 900/1800/1900 network

thanks
Jim

Thanks Jim, that's what I know and believe of tri-band cells but there are two types of tri-band 1) 800/1800/1900 and 2) 900/1800/1900 network. so if i have a 900/1800/1900 tri-band cell and I will roam around canada with cell companies using 800 and others 1900 network would i get blind spot/out of coverage?

Choose the one based on the networks bands on your country, if Canada uses 800/1900 then a T237, T616 or T637, would do the job, depending on your needs.
