It uses the following 4G LTE Bands:

B2, B4, B12, B13, B17, B25, B26

What if my carrier wasn’t listed?

Unfortunately, if your carrier is not listed, it is unlikely to be compatible. You can email us at support@thelightphone.com to see if we know more about your carrier. We don’t support most partner carriers (MVNOs) of the large carriers unless they are listed. If you purchase for a carrier not listed here, it’s at your risk - we don’t accept returns for lack of carrier support if not listed as compatible here.

Can I travel outside of that region?

This model of the Light Phone is optimized for North America, and though it may be able to get service outside of the intended region, the coverage may be less reliable and we cannot recommend doing so. If the region you are trying to use the Light Phone II does not support any of the antenna bands of this model, it may not get any coverage unfortunately.

You will need the International version of the Light Phone.

It uses the following 4G LTE Bands:

B1, B3, B5, B7, B8, B20, B28

What if my carrier wasn’t listed?

Unfortunately, if your carrier is not listed, it is unlikely to be compatible, though we have not verified every carrier in every region. You can email us at support@thelightphone.com to see if we know more about your carrier. We don’t support most partner carriers (MVNOs) of the large carriers unless they are listed. If you purchase for a carrier not listed as compatible here, it’s at your risk - we don’t accept returns for lack of carrier support if not listed as compatible here.

Can I travel outside of that region?

This model of the Light Phone is optimized for Europe, Asia, parts of South America, Australia and a few other countries globally. Though it may be able to get service outside of the intended region, the coverage may be less reliable, and we cannot recommend doing so. If the region you are trying to use the Light Phone II does not support any of the antenna bands of this model, it may not get any coverage unfortunately.

The Light Phone II is in English

Note that while the Light Phone II is supported by carriers in many countries globally, the phone interface uses the English language. The phone is able to view incoming messages in a variety of languages and character types, however, the keyboard currently only supports "QWERTY", "QWERTZ" & "AZERTY" layouts, including characters like à,á,â,ä etc. We do plan to expand our support of other keyboards layouts with future software updates.

Unfortunately, none of the current versions of the Light Phone II are compatible with your region.

There are a variety of factors; some carriers require special certifications, some regions we haven't been able to test thoroughly, and other regions use different network antennas altogether. As a small team based in New York, we are still in the process of expanding our phone's reach.

We appreciate you checking out the Light Phone. We're sorry for the disappointing news and we hope that we can share a Light Phone with you in the future. Thanks for understanding.

The phone uses the following 4GLTE & 5G Bands:

B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B7, B8, B12, B13, B14, B17, B18, B19, B20, B25, B26, B28, B29, B30, B38, B40, B41, B42, B48, B53, B66, B71, N1, N2, N3, N5, N7, N8, N12, N14, N20, N25, N26, N28, N29, N30, N38, N40, N41, N48, N53, N66, N70, N71, N77, N78

What if my carrier wasn’t listed?

Unfortunately, if your carrier is not listed, there is a chance it is not supported. Not all partner carriers (MVNOs) support the Light Phone, even if the parent carrier does, and this varies on a carrier by carrier basis. You can verify with your carrier that an unlocked phone (the Light Phone) with the above network antennas is compatible.

If you purchase for a carrier not listed here, it’s at your risk - we don’t accept returns for lack of carrier support if not listed as compatible here.

Can I travel outside of that region?

There is only one model of this phone that supports many regions around the world. Please use this same page to confirm that the phone will work in the regions/carriers in which you plan to use the phone to ensure smooth operation.
