Ive been in doha lately and found the prices of phones through the roof and want to bring a phone from england.
If anyone does know a phone that i can buy in england please say :)
Or if anyone knows where i can get a phone unlocked when i go back to doha please say.

Thanks guys.

Just make sure as the others have said, to SIM unlock the device. I have a blackberry which is from O2 and it works here just fine..

Yup - mine works here - just make sure that your phone from O2 is unlocked - think most of them are unlocked except for the iPhone which is locked to O2.
