All carriers LTE device

[hardlivinlow]

Hello all,

Quick question. Does anyone know the cheapest LTE phone that will work on all 3 major US carriers? I need this device for testing. Not going to be used as a daily driver. Thanks

I would make a matrix chart of all the bands each carrier uses and then find a phone that covers at least one of each band. And the location may be band dependent too so watch out for that. Sometimes older iPhones are good because traditionally owners of them have high turnover, always having to have the newest model and thus a wide spectrum older device may be a good choice as far as price.

The VZ branded Moto E4 that I purchased brand new from WM for $40 and then unlocked for $3 can make and receive calls and text on TMo, ATT withut any hassle.

Since it was VZ branded I had to call their CS to let me use a Visible SIM in it but after calling around was able to do so.

4G/LTE works full speed.

I think you can find used Moto E4s for far cheaper than $40 now.
