Will Verizon support a OnePlus X?

[talonzme]

I am looking at a phone upgrade, a non-Verizon phone, but I want to ensure that the bands utilized by the phone are supported on the VZW LTE network.  The phone supports the following:

GSM: 850, 900, 1800, 1900MHz

WCDMA: Bands 1/2/4/5/8

FDD-LTE: Bands 1/2/4/5/7/8

CDMA EVDO: -

Which phone?

We definitely want to ensure your device is fully operational! What device are you interested in? Purchasing a non - VZW device may have effect features of your service. It's important to understand what device your considering and if it has the possibility of being used on the VZW network.

Pay attention to the Frequencies of the LTE bands as well, not just the bands themselves.

The phone is the OnePlus X.

GSM: 850, 900, 1800, 1900MHz

WCDMA: Bands 1/2/4/5/8

FDD-LTE: Bands 1(2100) / 2(1900) / 4(1700/2100) / 5(850) / 7(2600) / 8(900) - Courtesy of GSMArena

CDMA EVDO: -

Given what I see I would come to the conclusion that it is indeed compatible.

No, it won't work.

Lacks CDMA, needed for Verizon.

You'd be better served spec-wise finding an LG G2 VS980 at much cheaper a price.

Refer to that comparison for needed connectivity requirements.

WCDMA is NOT CDMA. WCDMA is UMTS which is a GSM upgrade path. There are not compatible with each other.

Interesting comparison.  Amazing how close they are.  Thank you for that.

I was looking forward to the one plus phone but done that is not an option I think I well have to go with the LG V10.  That seemed to be the best choice when compared to the one plus x (not compatible) and the htc one a9.
