The customers in the USA who have bought it and have it working on a certain carrier does not mean it supports all the bands and/or speeds of that carrier. Alot of people don't realize if you take an old AT&T phone and move it to T-Mobile or the reverse that they both yes use GSM but NO not all the same bands so you will see a difference in speed unless the phone manufacturer had all the bands.

I like the specs of this phone, sad it doesn't have WiFi 6 and 5G. Here is the Celluar Radio specs from their website:

Global LTE (FDD+TDD), WCDMA/UMTS, CDMA/EVDO, GSM/EDGE
Cellular Bands;
GSM: 2, 3, 5, 8
WCDMA: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8
CDMA/EVDO: BC0, BC1
TD-SCDMA: 34/39
TDD-LTE: 38/39/40/41(100mhz)
FDD-LTE: 1, 2/25, 3, 4, 5/26, 7, 8,  12/17, 13, 19, 20, 28

Sounds like it might be partially compatible with all USA networks(meaning not full speed).
Verizon or Sprint but that would never happen since both networks are locked to authorized devices only.
T-Mobile, here is the link to their site with all supported bands: https://www.t-mobile.com/support/coverage/t-mobile-network
AT&T here is the link to their site with all supported bands: https://www.att.com/support/article/wireless/KM1008740/

Hi everyone:

Here are the specs to the Pro1-X phone. I am a member of FXTec's community
forums, so I can certainly ask about carriers if people have interest.
