lolwat the phone hasn't been launched - any answer you get here would be speculation at best.

fingers crossed. I'm in the same exact boat hoping the OP5 supports Freedom's new lte bands so i can switch!

If it's LTE band 66 then it sure will, I've seen all 34 bands it's listed as compatible with and this is one of them but there's not long till you can confirm that

There's been a lot of speculation based on this tweet going on:

It's rumored there might just be one international model - compatible with most current LTE bands. Would be awesome if LTE roaming was finally possible.

Yep I'm thinking the same about there just being one model as I've been lucky enough to see a little something which states 34 band compatibility and as it's launched today I'm sure there's no harm sharing:

FDD LTE:B1,2,3,4,5,7,8,12,17,18,19,20,25,26,28,29,30,66
TDD-LTE:B38,39,40,41
TDS:B34,39
UMTS:B1,2,4,5,8
GSM:B2,3,5,8

There is one band that is conspicuously absent from that list....

Yea, 13.

 

[loki993]

Yea, 13.

And it's just been confirmed on the Launch Live Event. Awesome feature!

and confirmed no band 13...meaning no Verizon...I guess it's good business to continue to ignore the largest carrier in the US....

Hi Folks,

Given these supported bands and Sprint's LTE is bands 25, 26, and 41, does this mean that OP5 will fully work with Google's Project Fi?

I've been waiting to move to Project Fi but not willing to pay for the Pixel.

Thanks!

Project Fi only fully works on the Nexus and Pixel line. Even if another phone supports the bands, you will only have access to T-Mobile.

Thanks for the information. That kind of sucks....
