One question we get a lot is about phones \u2013 can you use your phone in China? Should you get a local plan? How much do phones cost there? Here is an overview of some basics, but as with anything, we encourage you to do your own research, and call the recruitment team if you\u2019re unsure of anything. We\u2019ve all been there before.<\/p>\n
Should I get an international plan or one in China?<\/strong>\u00a0Get one in China \u2013 this is easy. Cancel your local plan and get one in China.\u00a0\u00a0 Plans in China are cheap. I used an iPhone and tons of data as well as international calling and spent the equivalent of about $35 a month at most.<\/p>\n Can I take the device I have right now?<\/strong>\u00a0I have known people who have done this, though some are unable to get the phones they bring to work. \u00a0So if you have a device, you can bring it and try, but note that it might not work, and in that case you will need to get a new phone. \u00a0They cost about the same as they do in the US, they are just a little behind sometimes with the latest releases. \u00a0You also have the option of bringing an unlocked phone that will certainly work.<\/p>\n
