If buying a phone outside of North America, verify that it properly
covers the bands used here.  I have a Google Nexus 5 and there is a
significant difference in bands covered.

Here's the info for my phone

      o 2G/3G/4G LTE
      o  
      o North America:
      o GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
      o CDMA: Band Class: 0/1/10
      o WCDMA: Bands: 1/2/4/5/6/8/19
      o LTE: Bands: 1/2/4/5/17/19/25/26/41
      o  
      o Rest of World:
      o GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
      o WCDMA: Bands: 1/2/4/5/6/8

We get more bands than elsewhere.
