QuestionWill this unlocked Samsung A71 work off the Verizon network under CDMA?
- Answer Yes, with 2 caveats. First, it will NOT work with Verizon's 5G service (at least yet, Verizon currently only uses mmWave which only the A71 5G UW supports). It WILL however support Verizon's 4G service Second, Verizon may give you a rough time when you try to activate it saying it's not compatible. If this happens just keep pushing for the next tier tech and ask them to enable CDMA-less devices on your line. Confirmation that this exact model is compatible is available at the top of the manufacturer's page for the device: https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/phones/galaxy-a/galaxy-a71-5g-unlocked-sm-a716uzknxaa/ Side note: CDMA is being phased out and almost no new phones support it anymore
QuestionDoes this phone work on a t-mobile network?
- Answer This phone works flawlessly on a T-Mobile network. I was with Verizon for over 20 years and never switched because I didn't want any problems, I switched to T-Mobile in early September and haven't looked back, not 1 dropped call, no network problems and no dead spots so far, LOVE it.
Questionwill this phone auto switch to wifi calling
- Answer If the feature in the phone is on then yes.. i live apparently in a low signal call area..when setting up with my carrier they even told me I may not like their service based on this.. but I don't get a lot of calls so it hasn't even mattered. So to answer your question yes the phone when I'm home automatically makes its calls over wifi because of my carriers weak signal right here..I walk outside my home and even in my country setting we have 5G.. Phone works great.. I Love it! Especially the camera's(This was a upgrade from a locked prepaid carrier phone j7crown) the A715G unlocked was a much deserved upgrade for both my husband and myself ..u will not be disappointed unless u want to pay more to get a few more bells and whistles maybe this one doesn't offer.. but works great for my needs :) enjoy!
