DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS ITEM, YOU CAN BUY A BETTER GPS THAT USES ANY CELLULAR SIM CARD AND YOU HAVE CONTROL OVER EVERYTHING. THIS IS A TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY. ALSO IF YOU BUY IT, AND JUST WANT TO TRY IT OUT AND YOU DON'T LIKE IT? YOU HAVE ALREADY ACTIVATED IT, AND WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO TURN IT OFF AND SHUT DOWN YOUR ACCOUNT. If you are tracking teenagers, they can just unplug it like nothing and throw it out the window and it's gone forever.

AT&T; is definitely the better option. T-Mobile will only get you 2G in most cases.

I am just wondering if this phone will get LTE with AT&T; or T-Mobile? I read on another comment that it would only get 3G service and not 4G or LTE :/

With your cell (att,t-mobile...etc) provider. Need to use GSM. And put a simm card in it. Used anywhere you get service. Don't get over your data limit.

i have T mobile and it DID NOT work on 4G/LTE for me. It's not compatible with the US carriers and only picks up 3G in my experience.

It seems to support the 850, 1900 & 2100mhz 3g (HSPA/HSDPA/UMTS) frequencies. I bought 1 for my mom hoping that it would work for T Mobile's 3g here in the States. It does pick up here and there in the Dallas Texas area but usually remains at 2g for most of the time. that would mean that this version does not support the 1700 mhz frequency. as someone else already replied, t Mobile is rolling out there 1900 frequency coverage to support the iPhone so it is getting better. the description on this item doesn't specify which version the phone is, but multiple types exist, however the 1 I purchased from Amazon was , apparantly, the 1900/2100 frequency type.

I'm unsure I bought it to work on T-Mobiles HSDPA+ (4G) 42.2 Mbit/s network as I wasn't sure if their new 4G LTE was up and running in my area. Also it may depend on the carrier your using as ATT and T-Mobile may operate on different radio frequencies. If I remember correctly ATT had a version for them that was 4G LTE, the LT30at, their previous was the LT28at I think. I don't think any other US carrier had an official 4G LTE xperia. Though T-Mobile is getting the new Z soon. No Sprint or Verizon capable Xperia in years that I know of. Also there may be other versions that would work. You may want to double check on websites like phonearena, or one of the Xperia forums.

I purchased an unlocked att phone and at the time T-Mobile was upgrading their lte service in my area (sw ct). I was only getting 4G, no lte, so I switched to a different phone. I don't know enough about the cellular bands to guarantee compatibility.

Yes, just go to t-mobile... It comes w/ 200mbs of data, but I upgraded to 1g for $10. It a deal!

I just tried connecting this to U.S. network providers. When searching for providers in the device's connection settings, I found T-Mobile & AT&T; as an option and it appears that those providers would work. I did not actually connect to those networks as i use Verizon, which was unfortunately NOT listed as an option for me to connect. I will provide an update here if i find out i am able to connect this device to my Verizon account. I had my Verizon SIM card present in the device when I did the search.

In the refarmed area which is about 40 miles from my home I get H+ and that works like 4g. When I'm home and around the county I llive in, I only get egde. I'm thinking about getting net 10 or aio for the 2nd sim if tmobile doesn't refarm my area soon.

You have the tmobile at home service that's $10/month, they no longer offer the service. Its been discontinued if you previously signed up for it, all you need is a sim and a router.

From what I read the Network that the device supports will only work on 3G. At least on TMobile Towers. The Device does not support the HSPA/+ Bands and to my understanding will not support 4G. But again. I was only able to barely configure it on TMobile.

well, i just could tell this is not good modem for me in usa. after set apn each sim cards, "simple mobile sim internet plan" and "t-mobile sim $3 per day plan" were not working as 3g. and sometime not working even 2g connection, i'm not sure if it's other country.

It supports 4G. Can't see why it should not work on T Mobile - It's unlocked. Great phone for the money Btw.

It uses a mini SIM. You have to get the larger SIM card replaced by your service provider
