Not being all that astute on smart phones, as I live in a very rural area, we bought a Samsung 9s. I just found out it is locked into my carrier (a local provider connected to Verizon). Verizon uses CDMA, but Samsung higher phones have both this and GSM. Question I have is whether we can buy a local sim when in Sicily or does the locking out just preclude it? I understand there is a code you must over- ride.
Am thinking of just buying a cheap phone in Italy or not even worrying about one. We only need to let the Airbnb's know when we are coming and I might be able to do this over Wi-fi, at some hot spot.
Any ideas?
Thank you.
