So... Aren't all Samsung Galaxy S III's all the same no matter who the carrier is? Why isn't US Cellular listed? Will it work w/a US Cellular S3??

Thank you for contacting Customer Care. This Galaxy S4 is locked to the carrier US Cellular. This phone uses the CDMA network which may not work outside of the United States. For international use, you would want a phone that supports the GSM network and/or both.

I am pretty much sure it will work with any variant of Galaxy S3. I have used it with my T-Moblie S4 and my wife's ATT S4 and had no problems. Just make sure to plug in the USB cable to a powered USB source.

We have the Samsung Galaxy S4, and it works great; not sure how it works on the S3.

U.S. Cellular is a CDMA carrier, it will only work with GSM carriers like AT&T; or T-Mobile.

I'm not positive but I would assume so since it would be the same phone its just different carriers. the galaxy s3 is the same at T Mobile as it is it Verizon so that's what makes me think the answer is yes

This phone uses the regular size SIM, not the newer version that the Galaxy S3 and newer uses. Its a single SIM phone and works great. My bf had his for three years which prompted my purchase. However, I sold mine the same time I got it because the keyboard was driving me crazy. If you are new to touch screen phones then i would suggest a phone with a larger screen, which was my alternative.

Well T-Mobile and Metro PCS are in the process of combining, but the Metro PCS version of the S3 is CDMA while a regular T-Mobile S3 is GSM. You might be better off just buying the T-Mobile S3 I believe they aren't that far apart in price

I have used this phone in usa and it worked with 3g. im inhonduras now and it also works, but i dont know if its the service provider that does not have 3g or not. It works fine, but it has not been working with 3g for me, but i think its more of a network provider issue (TIGO), because it did detect 3g in countris i have been to (USA, mexico, colombia, bahamas). Something that i did notice is that i tried to activate in the settings for 3g use only, and it just says GSM or WCDMA. I had another samsung and it did provide this option, dont know why this phone doesnt. Hope this information helps you.

Hi. I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 and it works great. Good quality compared to one I purchased prior to this one. I'm not 100% sure what you mean by U S Cellular? If the phone is a Samsung Galaxy S4, it will work. Hope this helps.

No I am sorry to inform you but you can't use the Metro PCS Galaxy S3 on AT&T; or T-Mobile. They use a technology to make calls that is very different from MetroPCS and the Galaxy cannot be reprogrammed.

I would think so, I believe the S3 regardless of the carrier are all the same size.

I bought this phone for Verizon and even though the description said Verizon, I was cautious because of the range of responses yes/no/i don't know. I would suggest calling or chatting with US Cellular about the phone. Then call back and get a different person and ask the same question again. It's possible it would work with your carrier but maybe too much work to get there and too expensive if you have made a mistake. After triple checking with Verizon about the phone, I waltzed into the Verizon store and they swapped it no problem.

I would think so all galaxy 3 have the same build ......its the software thats different.

This is another issue I just found out; the frequency range for this phone is 2100 mhz; so most carriers in America use the 1900 mhz range or below; so, this phone is not able to access 3G or 4G. I couldnt access 3G either; a friend of mine looked at it and found the frequency range. Another thing; yesterday the phone fall down from about a meter high; wasnt that high, the cristal screen totaly broke; since I live in Central America, theres no place to repair it. I owned before a Samsung Galaxy S3 and had some very hard falls and never happened to me. There went my 200 dollars. Take care of it, for the months that I had it, I mostly used it only with Wifi.

The model I got it for was for us cellular and the Samsung s3 takes 3 or 4 different types that are not compatible with each other so you have to find out very specific details before buying
