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.

For those who don't care about the 1 year 1500 Min/Text/Data, Straight Talk has a much better phone (Moto G Power 5G 2024) for $45. Basically if you get phone with the $45 Silver Unlimited 1 month service the phone is free. It has the same unlock policy as this phone (60 days).

Why in the world would you call the qvc support line? Over the color of the case? Wow. It's always risky to mess with these sorts of Slickdeals... Here, it's like you're walking across a high wire, voluntarily, for little potential reward.
Happy wife, happy life

Seems like it would be $90 to meet the 60 day unlock policy. Good phone, though.

How this A14 compares to the Moto G Play 2024 (beside a better LCD screen)?
This has 5G, I believe the moto doesn't

Is this the cheapest deal that a budget phone of this caliber can get, or could it potentially be cheaper few months down the road? Anyone know if there were similar QVC deals from previous models, and perhaps if prices were similar or even cheaper than what is being offered?

Sims are linked to phone IMEI, swaps are not recommended.
Just buy a BYOP sim ($1) for the iPhone & activate it online, keeping the number of the Samsung and plan/number will move to iPhone. Best to wait till Samsung unlocks if you plan to use it on another network or sell.

Do not move this SIM to another phone. After you activated this phone, wait certain days (if you'd like to unlock this phone), you can transfer the service to an unlocked iPhone with a $1 TF BYOD SIM or eSIM (iPhone 12 and above).

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)
What are you doing where you're going through so many phones, you need a spare? Or that it's so high risk, you need an emergency telephone?

Both incoming and outgoing calls count towards 1,500 minutes limit.
In the United States, it's one of the few countries that charge you for both incoming and outgoing calls.

that Moto G Power is a dud. I bought one and currently waiting for the unlock and the Samsung A14 & A15 is a big jump up. The Moto was free and has the typical speaker lag/cutout of Moto's. Dismal camera

sure and I do it sometimes. Note that it will disrupt the unlock time though. Other than that, it works fine with a compatible phone.

Thanks for this. Just ordered one. So are you saying you didn't have to wait the full 60 days to put another sim in? Would I be safer to wait the full 60 days?
