Rented a phone in South Africa and needed it - we ended up with a flat in the middle of the highway. Also had friends that could reach us to make dinner plans. I think if you are traveling in a totally language foreign country or driving, a phone is a must - at the very least, to call the hotel for assistance. Thanks for the review, will weigh the options for China! Starting trip to China next month and looking into the options and this was one of the most popular options but yeah, expensive for the calls.

Since you are taking your laptop you could use ooVoo. It is free video conferencing sight and it works for up to six people at a time. You can also send and receive video messages. To actually see the person you are talking to is very different than just a phone call, it brings them one step closer. ooVoo is really a great resource for anyone away from home. Have a great day!
