Yes, but you would only be able to use the SGH-T989 and the SGH-I897 because the other 2 are CDMA, or no SIM CARD. The two I said can both be used because they have SIM CARDS. I am currently using the SGH-T989 in Israel because i moved here and I liked the phone i had in the USA. I just unlocked it and then I was able to get 3G, HSPA, HSPA+. In other words, yeah, you should be fine if you go for the GSM (SIM CARD) ones.

Yes. If you get the T989 call T-Mobile and ask for the unlock code. If you get the other one call AT&T and get the unlock code.
