Which carriers will this phone work on?
S4 Mini GT-I9195 (link updated)
There's a slim chance I'll get this phone instead - S4 LTE i9505 (but I think I prefer the smaller size of the mini)
S4 mini specs appear to be here (same model number)
I currently use 2degrees, but coverage at work isn't great (very close to the beehive but on the far side of a building), so I may have to switch. Vodafone and Telecom both have more towers near work - I have no real preference between them, but Telecom appears cheaper with better coverage (Vodafone $45 for 500MB, Telecom $39 for 750MB, 2degrees is same as Telecom but extra data is much more expensive on Telecom).
Edit - found this info
- Network Info
Telecom: 3G 850MHz and 2100MHz (WCDMA?)
Vodafone: 2100MHz HSDPA
2degrees: 900MHz GSM,
- S4 Phone Info from various stores
Vodafone model: GSM: 850/900/1800/1900.
Expansys: GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz / 3G: 850/900/1900/2100 MHz / LTE Band: 1/3/5/7/8/20
Mobicity: 4G/LTE 1800, GSM 850, GSM 900, GSM 1800, GSM 1900, 3G 850, 3G 900, 3G 1900, 3G 2100, recommended networks 2Degrees, Vodafone 2G, Telecom XT Network, Vodafone 3G, Telecom 3G 2100
That suggests that it will work on 3G on any network, but how about 4G? If it doesn't do 4G/LTE I might as well get the i9190 model that's cheaper from some places.
