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.

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?
You definitely have to wait 60 days for phone to unlock. Won't be able to activate elsewhere until it's unlocked, just like all Tracfone branded phones - it's their policy.

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
I was comparing the Moto G Power 5G 2024 to the A14 in this thread. The A14 has half the ram, half the storage, slower CPU, no wireless charging among other things. Neither phone has great cameras but at least the Moto has an ultra wide lens. They'r both budget phones but I don't know how anyone can say the A14 is a big jump up from the Moto.

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).
How long does Straight Talk require you to keep the $45/month service?

You only need the initial month of service for the phone to be eligible for unlock (60 days after activation).

Maybe it's state-dependent. This post [howardforums.com] shows only ~$4 tax after promo code.

Do you need to port a number?
Is this a plan that needs to be cancelled?

My current phone is a moto G7 optmo maxx, it was doing well until last year, but this year started to feel slow. Games like Pokemon go became unplayable, so I'm looking to getting a better phone.


I usually get the phones around 40 to 70$ and they all have been great for a few years, but those newer phones at such price range everyone seems to say is slow.
To me, my phone only starting to feel slow now. I can't believe how a newer phone would feel slow, so maybe what I consider slow is unbearable to others, or the new phones are getting worse at keeping up with future tech, at the point of being as good as an older phone. 🤷🏻

No, no porting is required for that deal. You purchase the phone with a $45 plan without enrolling in auto-pay, and the service will stop after a month. No cancellation is needed. The phone is still eligible to be unlocked 60 days after activation. (after activation, text UNLOCK to 611611 and it will tell you the date for unlock.)

I'm buying this for my mother-in-law, and it's more than enough!
