“I see there are two LTE bands - LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800) and LTE band 2(1900), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 12(700), 17(700) - AL00 (USA). Are you able to explain if I were to purchase one for Melbourne Australia, if it includes both?”

Yes, the phone has the LTE bands you mentioned. Since you have all the specs for the phone, you should ask your carrier in Australia if it will work on their network. The voice/text function will be fine as it's the GSM global standard. The cellular data, specifically LTE bands, is where there's variance between networks. It is a well-constructed, reliable phone.

While these are specific to this region, you can check with your carrier in Melbourne to confirm if any of these bands are supported in your location.
