Typical Daily Data Usage Overseas
(Only for your reference. Different users will have different usage pattern)
My phone is region locked and can only accept South East Asia SIM cards. Can I still use this card in Macau/Hong Kong?
The new Samsung phone models have a sticker showing “South East Asia SIM Cards only” in the packaging. The message simply means you need to use a South East Asia SIM card to activate the phone. After you made calls of at least 5 minutes with the phone, your phone will then be able to use any SIM cards worldwide.
