Just for ha-ha's I decided to see if I could find the answer for this question....
When you visit the Philippines, you would need a GSM handset, to make and receive calls. If you have a GSM cell phone, it is unlikely that it would work in the Philippines, unless you have a multiple frequency phone. Networks in the Philippines operate on 900MHz and 1800MHz GSM frequency bands, where-as, networks in the countries in North America, Canada and a few other neighbouring ones, operate on 850MHz and 1900MHz frequency bands. This difference in frequency bands does not let your GSM phone operable in the Philippines. You will need either a multi frequency cell phone or one that is compatible with the frequency bandwidth in the Philippines.
In order to facilitate the use of cell phones universally, there are three types of such phones available in the world market. The Quad-band phone complies with all GSM bandwidths and would work in any of the GSM country in the world. The Tri-band is compatible with 800MHz, 900MHz and 1800MHz frequency bands, and operates in most part of the GSM region, while the Dual-band responds to 800MHz and 1900MHz GSM frequency bands.
