Let's buy a mobile phone in Bali ~ Bali mobile situation

It is good to use a mobile phone with a roaming service in Bali, but if you call a lot in Bali or come to Bali many times, buying a phone to use in Bali more specifically might be best。

Purchase mobile phone body

There are always cell phone stores in Bali's supermarkets and department stores, and it is said that Tenku Umar Street of Denpasar is the "mobile phone street", a lot of mobile phone dealers are gathered in that area.。

Also, there are a lot of mobile phone dealers in big cities, so you can purchase mobile phones there. Since it is unnecessary to purchase a mobile phone with identification, travelers can also feel free to purchase them. (Please bring your passport as a precaution)

Purchase SIM card

Purchasing a SIM card when you purchase a phone.

A SIM card is a FOMA card referred to in Japan, and this card has a phone number and connection data. If you insert this into a mobile phone, you can use service.
In Japan, it is SIM locked and you cannot use SIM a card inserted at the time of purchase, but because Bali is not SIM locked, you can use any company's card at purchase.
(However, please note that there are formats such as CDMA, 3G, 4G, and GSM)

Since SIM cards are sold at cell phone shops in the streets for around Rp 20,000, purchasing mobile phones is a good, and cheap idea.
Although there are several telecommunications companies in Bali, it is recommended because "Telecom cell company (brand name: sympathy)", "Indosat company (brand name: Muntari)" etc. are large and service range is wide, too.
Also, for each telecommunications company, we are conducting campaigns such as "Rp 1 / minute for same company calls" or "SMS 100 free mail", so its best to choose a telecommunications company from the frequency of use and area etc.

Let's put in pulsa

Mobile phone usage in Bali is a prepaid system.
The purchased SIM card is charged with Rp 10,000 worth of credit, but when the credit becomes low, you recharge the credit at the cell phone shop etc.
This credit is called Pulsa (Pulsa) · The method to charge your credit is by purchasing a card with a 16-digit number and entering that number from the mobile phone
· Electric method: to have you transmit Pulsa from mobile phone shop phone
There are two methods.

Mobile phones purchased in Bali can not be used elsewhere due to differences in radio formats and SIM cards. However, most Asian countries except Japan and Korea have the same radio format, so even if you change the SIM card, you can use it in other countries as well.
Although it is a SIM card, it will become unusable unless the pulser is charged again by the expiration date displayed after charging the pulser. However, since the SIM card is cheap, you can do as you wish, even discard it to buy a new one.
