Has anyone used this successfully in South Africa and Rwanda?

No, but it worked in UK, Poland, Germany and Australia, so should work elsewhere. Keep it on the lowest setting for best results when outside the US.

I have not used this in Africa but plan to use this in France in June. Dual voltage is important. I think it will work.

I don't honestly know if this adapter would work in other areas of Africa. My experience was in South Africa only, but it worked fine throughout South Africa.

Yes. That is what I use it with. Works great! Took it on safari in Africa. So glad I did!

Yes. The merchant provides dialing instructions for South Africa upon purchase. N.B. Dialing instructions with this merchant are a bit different from other prepaid cards.

I used them in Kenya. There are several different adapters and I found one to work everywhere I was at when there was electricity to use.

I live in the Caribbean and took it to London already and the wifi worked just find in both regions. I don't know if it will work in Africa but if you the wifi I know it will be fine check with your phone company to see if it is comparable hope this helped.

I think so - at least the specs say so. I've travelled to several places in Africa and had no problems

In Venezuela it works great. I do not know if it works in South Africa, but I think it should not have problems because this phone works on all mobile phone networks in the world.

I believe UK has same outlet as Singapore and Hong Kong. It also works in other European countries, like France, Italy, Germany, Swiszerland. Recently, I also use it at New Zealand, which means it should work in Australia as well. Not sure about S. Africa.

I don't know about South Africa, but just some additional info. I used mine in Europe, but what I didn't know was that for some appliances, you may also need a "converter". There were a few things I couldn't use because they weren't compatible with a 220 volt system even with the adapter..

Yes, it worked for me in the States on AT&T; and it works just as well in Mozambique. You might need to get a few settings from your provider, but even that was easy for me to figure out in Africa.

We delivered this to researchers in Botswana who are Botswana citizens. They are using it with no problems. Hope this helps.

Sorry, I never used it in Rwanda, but it worked perfectly in England and Scotland.

Mine works perfectly well in South Africa, and I love it...because we watch my American TV in South Africa!

I bought it a year ago and I gave it as a gift. I do not remember the version, but I believe it was the one advertised at the time. It came in micro SD w adapter and worked very well in the major roads, when we visited. We had small problems in the minor roads with it, showing us that there were roads on the software that didn't really exist, but I guess that's to be expected in as large of a country as S Africa. I hope this helps?!

I believe it is. I used it on a GSM network in Africa and it worked just fine.

Update: It's been over a year now since I have been using it in Rwanda and so far so good. I haven't fried anything -don't know if there have been power surges or not but the electricity goes out daily here, and often several times a day on and off and I haven't had any problems that I know of with equipment being harmed. I mostly keep my laptop and phone charger plugged in and sometimes a lamp or rechargeable flashlight.
