T=mobile Phone

Hi
I don't know if this is the correct forum but here goes.
My wife has a small t-mobile phone and she wants to get something a bit more up to date (ie "NOT WATER DRIVEN").
I am thinking about getting her one for christmas but I do not know if a t-mobile sim card will do for a camera phone or a phone of ANY make.
(Beside me gettinjg stuffed ? ) could anyone give me any guidance about this please, I would be eternally greatfull.
PS "Please excuse any spelling mistakes".

Yes, the sim should work in a camera phone - that bit is independent of the sim. Some phones are locked to a certain provider, but most can be unlocked to work with any company's sim. The problem may be that her existing sim may not support data or picture messaging. Best bet is to ask in a phone shop. Another avenue, is to find a mate with the phone you like and put her sim card in it and see if it works.

Your SIM card should work on any phone, however you may want to ask T-Mobile for a brand new one, they can send you one easily and transfer your number over to the other sim, it's called a SIM Swap.
