My travel phone is a dual sim Android. I had no problems with it at all. However, the better question would be what frequency does your phone operate and is it GSM?

+1

Post your phone make and model and carrier, that would help answer your question. Phone needs to be UNLOCKED before you can use it on a different carrier.

Basicially anything T-mobile or AT&T with a sim card should work with there.

if you have international roaming, nearly every carrier will work.

Google Nexus is spendy @ $399 but it should work. Unlocked out-of-the-box, will work on AT&T or T-Mobile in the USA, (or Rogers/Fido in Canada?), it's pentaband HSDPA and quad-band GSM so it should work on any HSDPA or GSM system anywhere in the world.

Another nice benefit: you don't get the carrier-sponsored bloatware that usually comes preinstalled on phones purchased from a U.S. wireless carrier.

The downside is the up-front cost, plus some people might consider it a bit big. It also looks like an expensive phone and some people might not be comfortable waving such a thing around some places. (In the USA *or* CR.)

Costa Rica operates on a gsm frequency of 1800mhrz. So any unlocked quad band phone will work. Just pop a Kolbi, Claro or Moviestar sim in, and start chatting.
