The power supply for my laptop can take anything from 110 - 250 volts, 50
to 60 Hz, so it would be no problem for me. Have a look on yours, it
might have a sticker that says what it can handle. If not, read the manual
for your laptop.

The US system is around 110 volts, isn't it? So your adapter for the
phone may be a problem. I have an Evo N1015v as well, and that should
work just fine.
