Do Phones from Hong Kong work on tmobile?
So I’m about to go visit Hong Kong and I was thinking about buying a new cell phone while I’m there since they’re cheaper and have a greater variety, but how do I know whether or not they will work when I get back to the US. I know it’s not as simple as placing the sim card in the new phone. I am on the t mobile network. Any advice or tips will be very helpful.

Actually, it *is* "as simple as placing the SIM card in the new phone." A HK phone that uses a SIM card will work on U.S. networks that also use SIM cards. Your biggest concern is getting an adapter for your charger that will fit in North American wall sockets. Those are cheap and sold everywhere. You shouldn't have to worry about getting one that converts voltage. All cellphones I've seen can be charged in either a 110V or 220V socket.

Nope. They are like dvds. They have different regions of games and will not work on your PS3 unless you bring one over from China or you have to modify your PS3 and I've heard that it's extremely hard to do.
2 :
Yes. PS3 games are not region locked so no matter where the disc is from it will play on any PS3. So yes they will work on your PS3.
3 :
??? is wrong...Ps3 games are region free meaning u can play any ps3 game's on your console that is from another country....SO YES YOU CAN PLAY YOUR GAME ...........XD HAPPY GAMING !
4 :
Yes, PS3 games are not region locked. That is why people order games from japan since sometimes they get games earlier.

I dont think so. Because PS2 games that work on PS3 Hongkong is Region NTSC-J. I am quite sure that Australia PS2 games is PAL, right? But if you have PS2 games that has NTSC-J, u can play it. or simply dont sell your old PS2 console. I bet u already knew the answer since u have already bought it, haven't u? :) Have a nice time with your new PS3! And add my PSN id: squall_edd -est-

Any Ps3 game should work on the ps3 because it is region free. But the ps3 has backwards computability issues, so not all or any ps1 or ps2 games will work. Still it looks like Sony has a lot of problems to fix out of that over heating piece of hardware. The link below will explain more to you. glancing at the chart under "Retail Configurations" it should be fine because it will use an emulation software to run it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_3

All Playstation 3 games are region-free. The only problem with your PS3 from Hong Kong is that it may not be able to play DVDs, CDs, or Blu-Rays that aren't the same Region Code as that PS3. All games from the world should work fine, though.

Would a Classic Controller for Wii from Hong Kong work here in the USA
Would a Classic Controller for Wii from Hong Kong work here in the USA?
I bought a classic controller a while ago from Ebay, but I did not notice that it was being shipped from Hong Kong. Now, I know that due to region coding many games can not be played here from Japan and such and that electronic items are sometimes configured differently in different countries and I'm just worried that this classic controller may be like that. So will this controller work with my American Wii and Wii remote?

The controllers should be universal.

Wii Controllers are not region locked like the games are. Classic Controllers and Wii Remotes have the same plugs and inputs worldwide.
