hi, yes it will the preferred network is vodafone Japan, but make sure you set voicmail to text alert only as it will cost you a fortune for people leaving messages, call 191 from your handset and get all details of costs etc from customer services agent, have a good trip

No, the mobile communications network in Japan is different to that in the UK. CDMA as opposed to GSM in Europe. Your best bet is to hire a Japanese mobile phone from Narita airport.

Japan is unique in its mobile phone system so no it will not work at all. Your phone will work in Hong Kong, Singapore etc. but not in Japan.Been there, done it.

It will work using your phones 3G. (not GSM)
