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.frequencych
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

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.
Thank you to the QVC CSR.

Just get a $1 BYOP sim & activate the iPhone the right way.
I've been buying tracfones from HSN and QVC for over 10 years and never lost any unused min text or data. I did recently picked up the Galaxy A25 5g with unlimited talk n text, plus 25gb of data plan. Not that I needed that much talk text & data, but wanted to see if it would make a difference to me. Phone calls no difference, texts are better since everyone uses this method, and data is 24 times better. Used to be 1.5gb per year, now 2gb per month. Overall, happy with Tracfone services and various selections of their budget phones.
Those data coverage just becomes an emergency use in the rare case that you need coverage, but you are in an isolated area without any wifi.
To me that doesn't happen very often, so I have a lot of extra data from previous years of getting deals like this. So not only is enough, is actually more than enough for me.
I have even more texts and calls extras saved up along the years.

I ordered it, don't want it selling out, but I do not think I have to pay QVC service each month, lol
