I purchased the Xiaomi Mi A1 in Thailand and get a solid 4G signal on the AIS network. I'm heading to the states this summer and I was told that this phone may not have the proper radio bands to connect to 4G in the states. Is anybody using this phone in the states and what has your experience been? My first choice is TING and my second choice is Straight Talk.
I bought the Global version and I'm in the US and using it on Ting currently it supports band 4 LTE
I have the "Global" version and get 4G with T-Mo...on band 4.
That's great news, thanks!
I have the global version on Cricket and get 4G.
Will a International s10 plus be able to connect to u.s. carrier's and get 5G data connection? Thanks In advance!!!
Sent from my [device_name] using XDA-Developers Legacy app
s10 plus is LTE/4G device. S10 5G is a 5G device.
s10 plus can't connect to 5G, but s10 5G can connect both 45/Lte 5G
Is there really 5g network in uSA?
Hi! Ive been reading and I did some researching but im still confuse. Is the IN2020 the NA version or CN? With the IN2020 can I get 5g using Tmbile? How bad is it? Is better to wait for the NA version? Which band are missing? Any help please!
I'd like to know as well. Bought mine on eBay and it's IN2020 with international ware. I'm on Verizon with no issues but still curious.
I've got IN2020 via Wonda Mobile for the UK and it works fine, it has been flashed with OOS.
I've managed to pick up 5g via Three which was unexpected as I wasn't aware that there was 5g in that area. It's super fast, faster than my 4g in the city but no way near the ones I see in the US. I believe for the US the IN2020 will be missing a few bands so you might not get all of the 5g networks out there.
If you check Wonda they list what bands the phone caters for.
Yeah I have it on tmo in USA and I get 5g works great!

Really? I heard it was missing tmobile's band?
How much download speed were you getting via 5g?
it might show 5G but i doubt it's getting the throughput.
I saw this on chinese a OP7 showing 4G and was just getting 3G speed since it's missing Band 20

Can you test the internet speed on 5g? Accordibg the band description it does not have the tmobile 5g bands at all.

Strange the indicator states I have 5g but getting 60mbps, nowhere near the 1gb/sec.
I dropped down to 4g and got 30mbps. I wonder what's going on?
Could be that indicator just says it has 5g as a previous user stated. Damn, sux that it isn't actually 5g but eh works well enough for me.

Okay so after some digging here is what I found: This ebay listing where I purchased my device:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/OnePlus-8-...hash=item342648c8ac:m:m9cL3Ly1MTYuW6lfrhtO1Xg
It states: 5G band 41(2500), 78(3500), 79(4700)
same here: https://www.gsmarena.com/oneplus_8_pro-9919.php
Looking at the t-mobile website: https://www.t-mobile.com/support/coverage/t-mobile-network
it states: Frequencies that can provide 5G:
Band n71 (600 MHz)
Band N260 (39 GHz)
Band N261 (28 GHz)
Band n41 (2.5 GHz)
so... t-mobile USA supports it?
I just received the IN2020 version today but the OEM unlocking is greyed out????

TMobile 5g speeds are about the same as 4g rates. Maybe a 10% improvement but not much difference. Sometimes my 4g speeds are faster than 5g. Obviously their network needs some help, lol but it'll get there.

Yes this phone support n41 but we don't know can it use US band B2 / B4 as anchor band for n41. Someone please test this in 5G-area. Please then send log to me. Here is instruction how to get log file: https://mt-tech.fi/en/how-to-get-4g...droid-phone/#OnePlus,_Oppo_and_RealMe_devices and that log file can send to https://cacombos.com/contribute so i can parse log if support n41 in USA. on Cellmapper App example should see then 5G State Connected when really connected to 5G-network. Don't trust 5G icon because it appear from UpperLayerIndicator message.
I have listed some 4G combos supported in T-Mobile USA network: https://cacombos.com/device?model=IN2020&combolist=america_tmus_plmns .

Yes I have already done this recently thank you. How can I find if there is a 5g tower near me that supports n41?
Can you point me in the right direction to learn about anchor bands and how it works?
Thank you!

I don't know if in USA have any map where used different frequency. n41 is used in Sprint network but should be available for T-Mobile customer after merge.
Current 5G NR NSA (Non-Standalone) network require 4G LTE for signaling - data could transfered LTE+NR or LTE / NR depends configuration. 5G SA (Standalone) then works only with 5G band but i think take few years to get implement to network.
T-Mobile's N71 is one of the most exciting things to happen to phones. 600MHZ 5g? I would definitely get the IN2025. I just grabbed a IN2025 from Amazon for $899 because it has a damaged box

this IN2020 model can be ROOTED¿
Hi,
I'm thinking of buying the OP8Pro, but wanted to keep myself "futureproof" for a few years. I also see a few options for buying the "international version" of the phone...
Will the US version work with Verizon 5G, presumably as they expand the network?
Will the international version work?
I see a few places listing the "band" and "frequency" but nothing I find matches up for CDMA, LTE or 5G so I'm confused.
Verizon is using mmwave for their 5G. Only the Oneplus 8 5g will work with Verizons 5G.
