Will a radio work in my country?

Pick a country and a radio: we check the radio's LTE bands against every mobile network there and say in plain words whether calls will work, and where coverage will be weaker. 73 operators in 22 countries.

    How the check works

    We compare the LTE bands the radio's maker publishes with the LTE bands each mobile operator uses, from national regulators' spectrum charts and operators' pages. The result for each network is one of three:

    • Works — the radio has at least one band the operator uses, including the operator's low band below 1 GHz (B8, B20 or B28 in Europe; B5, B12, B13, B14 or B71 in North America) that carries coverage indoors and outside cities.
    • Weaker outside cities — the bands match, but the radio lacks the operator's low band, or the operator runs no low band at all. Calls work in towns; coverage is thinner in buildings and the countryside.
    • Will not work — no common LTE band.

    The data covers 73 operators in 22 countries and 274 radios with a published band list. Bands a radio supports but a network does not use are shown struck out in the expert view. A radio sold in several regional versions may have different bands: check the version you buy.

    Each operator row in our knowledge base cites the regulator chart or operator page it comes from; each radio cites its maker. See How we verify.
