You can go to the computer market and find a decent used phone that's pretty cheap. A lot of the real electronics are actually about the same price if not a little cheaper in the US, but a big downside about China is you run the risk of buying fakes.

What should you bring? Well we don't know anything about you. Are you a person of Chinese descent or a foreigner? If you are a foreigner and quite tall or fat, I would recommend clothes. Do you have big feet? A few pair of shoes might be a good idea. Do you take any special medicine? Think about what your absolute essentials are other than basic things like shampoo, deodorant, toothpaste, etc and pack those essential things.

Good luck! Let me know if you have any other questions.

unlock your mobile phone and bring it with you. When you settle, you can worry about getting a new phone.

you can easily get shampoo, deodorant, toothpaste etc.. in supermarkets. What you need to bring is one or two rolls or toilet paper in your backpack, just in case, as they don't have toilet paper in the toilets

Am I able to put a china SIM card in a windows mobile phone, or do i really need to buy a new phone? if it is comparable buying a new phone to paying someone to fix my phone for China ? Is that even possible?

I've never been attached to my phone until it became touch screen and got Pleco installed. Pleco has saved my butt in Chinese classes for a few semesters now ( i do flashcards on it). I suppose if I can't use my phone for the phone itself, it's still a necessary study tool, I'd just prefer to have a light purse when I go around... please let me know, thanks!

don't worry they are VERY slow I sent my application mid-March.

I wrote to them second week of April asking if they received the paper and they said yes but, it will take a few week for them to send everything.

I don't think you will have any problem you just have to be very patience.

Good luck and keep me post it so we can be in touch while we are there.

I am from Canada, born and raise in Mexico and you?

take care

M:lol:
