Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Dunc, the specs listed for the phone does state that it is CDMA and GMS compatible, so yes you would be able to switch to a GSM carrier. However, I would suggest that you contact your carrier and check with them to see if the phone is compatible with their services based on specs. The phone I purchased did include a sim card.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.L Phones sold in markets that service both standards often come in a GSM version or a CDMA version, but only a few phones are compatible with both. If you buy a CDMA phone from a third-party retailer, you’ll need to call your carrier to have it activated. If you buy a GSM phone, you’ll need to purchase a SIM card to put into your phone that will activate your phone’s network capabilities. Owners of CDMA phones don’t need to worry about SIM cards, but this is more a curse than a blessing. CDMA phones bake in compatibility restrictions that are difficult to get around, while GSM owners can simply take out their SIM and replace it with one from another carrier. Most CDMA networks do not allow the use of a phone originally purchased from another carrier even if the phone is otherwise technically compatible. This is an important restriction to remember when going with a CDMA network. If you decide to switch networks later you’ll likely need to buy a new phone even if the network you’re switching to also uses CDMA.
