This Unlocked Cell Phones give to us some advantages, like this :
1. practical travel phone
This phone met my needs for an unlocked, quad-band, GSM ready phone to use while in Europe. It has become my travel phone and allows me to purchase only the SIM cards and minutes that I need when I enter a country. The upfront cost of purchasing the phone through Amazon was less than going through a phone company that wants to lock you into buying their sim cards and minutes. It is much cheaper to purchase your sim cards in Europe and the call minutes are much cheaper.
2. Samsung GT-E1182L E1182
This is a simple, no-nonsense but very cheap 4 quad phone which one can use both in the US and Europe. In addition, it takes two sim cards so you can be reached on either number which is particularly useful if you work out of two countries. It simply does what it says on the box and does it very well.

Does not work in the US, comes with Greek as default language
2013.08.06: Here is the latest update. I was contacted by the seller (Mobile Best Sellers) apologizing that they had a distribution error with this product, and they sent me the wrong model of the phone. A few dozen people were affected by this error. FYI, I got the Samsung GT-E1182 (no "L" at the end), which is dual band, not quad-band.
I've returned the phone, and got a full refund on it.
At least, this makes sense now. I still find the title of this product confusing: "Samsung GT-E1182L" (which, I suppose, is quad band), AND "E1182" (which is dual band). So, if someone orders this phone, which one will they get?

2013.07.29: Here is an update to my review, after I visited a T-Mobile service center in person and talked to a representative for a long time.
This phone is definitely not quad band, it is only dual band (GSM 900/1800) as it is stated on the phone box. So, it does not work in the US with the GSM...
