Greetings,
I'm arriving in Nicaragua at the end of November for a seven month stay. I will have my 'smart' phone with me which I'll use when I have wifi. I'm wondering about purchasing a phone to use while there; is it best to buy one in the USA to take to Nicaragua and purchase a sim card/plan there, or to buy a phone when I arrive? When I lived in Costa Rica, I'd purhasted an Android (which I did not like) and plan from ICE and it was not so inexpensive. When I lived in India I bought an Android also, with a plan that meant constantly 'recharging' at the equivalent of ATT or Verizon. (I left my Costa Rican phone there with friends, and I gave my Indian phone to my driver.) I'd appreciate advice about buying phones there vs. USA, and about the plans, etc. where to purchase there, and where to purchase a phone if I do buy one there.
