In general, when travelling internationally, it is just easier to leave your phone at home and buy a cheap phone with a prepaid plan when you get to country. This avoids all of the potential intrusions that come with passing through security and borders.

If only there would be a device that lets you take high-quality pictures. Maybe storing it on a SD card. Maybe you could even put a real flash on it, for pictures at night.

But when your phone is inspected at the border, and you have only 2 days of chat history, no browser history, no call log, and no saved photos, won't that raise even more questions?

You could answer: I just got a new phone 2 days ago, because my old one broke down.
