After speaking with Metro, this phone will continue to work on Metro because of the LTE it uses..It will actually work better which is a good thing..it has been a better deal than I thought

The Nokia 301 is a GSM phone and it will NOT work with Metro PCS IF your plan is under a CDMA Network (They now operates under GSM and CDMA networks). Usually GSM carriers provides a SIM card to insert into the phone. The best thing to do is to call Metro PCS and asked them if you buy an unlocked GSM phone you will be able to use it.

I'm a former Metro PCS customer who was happy with their service. Switched to Boost Mobile for a non-service related reason. Both services seem to be equivalent. I use this device for Boost and it does work! Where there were no reception bars, there are now 2-3 out of 5, and sometimes more.

I get evrything unlimited with MetroPCS for $60 a month and I mean everything. The new price is $70 a month..I was grandfathered in at the old price but $70 for everything is still a great deal for 4G and unlimited talk..text and data. Now go price that with contract companies like verizon ..sprint or others and it will cost almost double and that's with some limits.

Just add sim card to new phone and call and activate your new phone with metro. Should be no reason to go into store but they will charge you an activation fee even though you have service with them already.

As this phone is unlocked it should work with and cell service provider as long as you have a SIM card for the provider in this case MetroPCS I personally have not tried it as I use Verizon.

I currently use this device on H20 wireless. It works very well. I have tried it with a lycamobile sim card as well. Since metro pcs now use sim cards, I think it will work just fine. Generally I live tbe Dell streak phone it is performing better than expected

Yes. Now if you get the Verizon model and you're trying to use it on MetroPCS: use your existing SIM on the phone (if all you're doing is upgrading your phone. Otherwise, buy a SIM card and you'll see why). Don't go to Metro, they'll turn you down once you say it's a Verizon phone. Call customer service and select "activate a phone" and then "troubleshoot". Just tell the representative you need help activating an unlocked phone, follow thier instructions and it'll be fully functional by the time you're done. ;)

If you bought the CDMA version, get a refund and buy the new GSM version from the MetroPCS website. Metro plans are superior to Straight Talk.

This Phone is Most definitely a 4G LTE phone! With the merger of MetroPCS with T-Mobile your phone "may" work with Metro. My understanding was that both AT&T and T-Mobile uses GSM. Since Metro (in it ads states "rides on the T-Mobile Network") it could be a simple matter of changing your SIM card to connect. But PLEASE check with MetroPCS 1st. Not all phones or areas may work.

Yes, since Metro PCS is also a GSM Sim card supporter this naturally unlocked device is usable on Metro's GSM (T-mobile) network. But the question you should be asking is the plan you have with metro pcs less than Tmobile's other supported company Solavei.com/Ecoline.. And yes your phone number can be ported over. Please check it out. Plus earn by sharing it with others. Basicly alimenating your phone bill for ever. Any other questions?

There are markets that support metro pcs, but I would caution you to investigate what type of network metro pcs uses. Usually a visit to their Kiosk or phone call will clarify the network used on the area you want to use your device. If you provided more details as to the area you want to use your device I may be able to give a better answer.

Metro PCs is with T-Mobile. So yes it works. Maybe depending on your location it will determine your data speed. H+ is supposed to be 4g that's what I have. Its been pretty great so far.
