In reply to gina. No, you don't. You can plug your charger and phone directly into Chinese plugs :)

In reply to Ken. If your plug is a type G plug (common in Singapore), then you'll need an adapter. Most phones, however, come with the standard two-pronged plug which doesn't require an adapter. Check the plug and as long as it says "110-220V" on it, you'll be fine.

In reply to Wanda Perkins. Some of the universal adapters that have been listed in this article will do that.

In reply to Ginny. Hey Ginny, big-box stores like Wal-Mart and Best Buy should have converters, but if it's for your iPhone I don't think you'll need one. The charger that comes with your phone is rated for 220v and should fit into most China plugs!

I’m going to just need a converter to charge my iphone while in china. It’s too late to order on-line, but I do live in a major city (boston). Where might i purchase this device (chains, or type of store)?
Thank you for the clarification

In reply to Terry. 110 Or 120 makes little difference although most of the world uses 220/240. An important factor is that us is 60hz whereas most countries use 50hz
