Good device if worked properly
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got a call 6 or 7 days after I put in a friends place. It would go Orange all the time. He had zero 5G connections. I went and infact the 2.4 G was broadcasting but nothing on the 5G band. I vrified settings and could not get a signal from the 5G band. I Dissapointed in both vendor for crumby policy and product for failing so soon. Store clerk at returns stated has been happening with these lately and confirmed that product has been returned alo due to that fact.
