short answer yes

long answer different carriers have different radio frequency zones called "bands" allocated to them by the various authorities, thus you match your phone to those frequency "bands" and if your phone has the right bands it can talk to the cell phone towers that use those bands. This is technical, exact model number is Samsung S146VL - Galaxy A14 5G 2023 (there are multiple versions of the A14 for different carriers and US vs non US) here are all the fancy technical bands it supports which is greek to most people (including me even if I can parse it after sorted.)

Supported Frequency Bands (30) https://www.frequencycheck.com/mo...id=2706927

GSM aka 2g

850 MHz GSM
900 MHz (E-GSM) GSM
1800 MHz (DCS) GSM
1900 MHz (PCS) GSM

UMTS a form of 3G

B1 (2100 MHz) UMTS
B2 (1900 MHz PCS) UMTS
B4 (1700/2100 MHz AWS 1) UMTS
B5 (850 MHz) UMTS
B8 (900 MHz GSM) UMTS

LTE
B1 (2100 MHz) LTE
B2 (1900 MHz PCS) LTE
B3 (1800 MHz +) LTE
B4 (1700/2100 MHz AWS 1) LTE
B5 (850 MHz) LTE
B7 (2600 MHz) LTE
B12 (700 MHz ac) LTE
B13 (700 MHz c) LTE
B20 (800 MHz DD) LTE
B28 (700 MHz APT) LTE
B38 (TD 2600 MHz) LTE
B39 (TD 1900 MHz +) LTE
B40 (TD 2300 MHz) LTE
B41 (TD 2500 MHz) LTE
B48 (TD 3600 MHz) LTE
B66 (1700/2100 MHz) LTE
5G NR

N2 (1900 MHz)
N5 (850 MHz)
N66 (1700/2100 MHz)
N77 (3700 MHz)
N78 (3500 MHz)


for example this will work on Tracfone, Verizon (after unlock) and T-Mobile (after Unlock)

But while it will work on T-Mobile it lacks the bands that T-Mobile uses for its 5g for T-Mobile uses bands 71, 41, and 258, 260 and 261 with its 5g so it is not a great T-Mobile phone even if it works great for Tracfone and Verizon.

DW ordered one and later wished she had ordered the pink case, so we called to see if they could change the order. When the CSR made the change on her end, it took away the promo code and wouldn't let her add it back in because the system now says that the DW is not a new customer because she made that one original order. The CSR was very pleasant and spent a considerable time trying to get the $30 discount back. The bottom line is that she deleted the bandana "filler" and just adjusted the price of the phone to get the total with tax back to what it was in the original order. She could have said tough luck, no can do. But she went the extra mile to make the DW happy. Kudos and thanks to that CSR. I'm telling this story because far too often good customer service is non-existant, and when someone within a company goes over and above to take care of a customer, their efforts should not go unheard. We're quick to jump when we get screwed, but often we don't speak up when we're well taken care of.

Thank you to the QVC CSR.

Folks, just a heads up -- the "1500 Talk/Text/Data" isn't per month, it's for the entire year. It works out to about 4 minutes/4 texts/4mb data per day.

Is there a deadline for how long you have to activate this after purchase? Would like this phone in about six months.

Not everyone can buy at the discounted price. If just harvesting service, OK, you hopefully know what you're buying.
But some users plan on using phone for a while & they need to be aware this model is an older version with poor reviews.
Prospective buyers need to read reviews and decide what's best for their use.
Its a burner phone to "make money" with, if you're smelling what I'm selling...

This deal is not for the plan (unless you want a spare phone for emergency use) but for the phone that can be unlocked after 60 days of activation (if you need one and can wait)

Did you buy this bundle from QVC? It's rare, but if it happens, you need to contact QVC for replacement as the service may not have been loaded to the phone/IMEI/SIM. (more reason to activate it within the return window to make sure both phone and service work.)
Yeah, they said it is something on their end. Support was helpful to find a solution quickly.

Does anyone know if this model could be rooted?

Looking to setup a Google photo upload for my wives phone. Just the Samsung, at least us version, usually have the bootloader locked. From a quick search, that seems to be the case for this model as well.

You're right. When I read the post, I immediately thought the person didn't receive the red card. However, I have only had two problems with Tracfone service and both were resolved.

I've had a Samsung Galaxy A14 5G for a few months as a backup wifi and gaming device. I've debloated it by removing most Samsung and Google apps and services and it is blazing fast now.

I'm sure my experience is 1% of most owners but this phone is awesome. I would get this without hesitation if I had to do it over again.


Edit: Ran some benchmarks on it and it looks to be accurate in the rankings there. Benchmarks be damned, this phone has great response times and doesn't feel slow to me at all.
I have a a14 as a second phone for over a year. I've had no issues with the phone.

does the incoming calls also count towards 1500 minutes limit? Or is it only for outgoing calls?
