I'm about to upgrade my iphone to either a 4 or 4s, I know the 4s has the world mode but not sure how that will play into things when I get to Korea. Am I insane even considering using my ATT service in Korea? Will it just be too costly? OR is there an international feature I can add to make it affordable?


These are questions you should be asking your current telecom company.

But I think it would be safe to assume that you would be better off getting a contract with a Korean telecom company.

this would be insanity. i did this when i first came here because my work required me to. i did use the phone for roaming around the world quite a bit because i traveled often and i would regularly get 400 dollar cell bills. i would have dropped it if i had the choice.
for personal use i had and have a korean cell phone. pretty cheap and great service and unlike the us providers, unlimited usage on data with no stupid caps. from someone who's been there, it would be absolutely a terrible idea to do try and use a att phone here on att international roaming.

Apple Iphones have inferior hardware is a common argument that Android users like to throw out there.

I think the benchmarks speak for them selves.

The 3GS and the Iphone 4 get a good boost in performance with the IOS 5 upgrade.

2x as fast as iphone 4 and 7x better graphics with the best camera around. I think its a nice upgrade I also heard they have the untethered jailbreak out now.
