I'd like very much to try one of the official Ubuntu phones for my regular telephone usage. The problem is that I am total newbie what concerns mobiles.

Can somebody advise me on a model usable in Belgium ?

Again, my apologies for asking what is probably a no-brainer. :-)

UPDATE:

It was a dumb question indeed. Simply match the phone's supported frequencies with those used in Belgium. Checking the countries' frequencies at http://www.worldtimezone.com/gsm.html. It seems Europe is mainly using 900Mhz and 1800Mhz. So if the phone can use those too, then it should be usable in whole Europe.

    I see no reason why any model can not be usable in Belgium. – Pilot6 Sep 14 '15 at 11:11

  • @pilot6 because I don't know squat about it. And that Belgium is usually not in the lead of adopting new technology. :-) – Jan Goyvaerts Sep 14 '15 at 11:20

I have one in Belgium. It runs out of the box and I bought it from bq.com. Hope this helps.

  • Right - I now know how to match the frequencies of the phone with those of the country. :-) So basically all three Ubuntu phone should work in Belgium indeed. Which model did you buy ? And are you satisfied ? – Jan Goyvaerts Sep 17 '15 at 07:08
