It says this in the description: "This unlocked cell phone can be used with a GSM network service provider and it provides quad-band connectivity (850/900/1800/1900 MHz)."However, I'm not sure how accurate that is. I can't find anything in a quick Google search.

Definitely will work on AT&T; but there are some qualifications. On quad band 2g GSM it will work on 800 and 1900 mhz. On dual band 3G, it will work on 800 mhz. However, it will not be able to use 3G 1900 (only has 800 mhz USA and 2100 mhz 3G) nor will it be able to use LTE unless indirectly through a separate mifi device (I do this). There are some APN data settings included with the phone that should work with an AT&T; direct sim chip but may not work with the data settings with AT&T; resellers like RedPocket, H2O, etc....those would have to be manually programmed in...I don't bother with that and just wirelessly tether via wifi to a hotspot or my AT&T; mifi device.

The phone is a 3G phone and can work on anyone of the following network: Cellular Band 3G - 900 / 2100 Mhz*Cellular Band - Quad-Band 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 Mhz

Quad band so will work almost anywhere at 2G. However 3G is probably hit or miss depending on your selected carrier.

3G, short for third Generation, is the third generation of mobile telecommunications technology. First of all I suggest that you have to consult with your local provider, mostly it shouldn't be a problem. Nowadays smartphones are seen all over the world. Moreover, this is GSM technology phone with unlocked facility so basically it should work in your place when you put the sim card that is going to be provided by your local carrier or provider. However as I said in the starting you have to double check with the service provider.

Hi, the phone is 3G GSM w/quad core speed. Depending on the phone company for GSM, sometimes, 3G, sometimes 2G. If you reset the software, (ask dealer how to reload sim program), still no good, then you will have a background telling the dealer.This phone is a pre-runner phone for the booming 4G LTE in China. The core 4 LTE chips is implementing, and core 8 LTE is under manufacturing.

NO, because Consumer Cellular uses GSM phones. And this phone is a CDMA phone, so it will not work.

GSM. I'm using T-mobile. I'm satisfied with 3G, it also works perfectly as a wifi hotspot. I think it works well with 4G too.

Sorry to have to tell you, but it is the one downfall of this phone. I have Consumers Cellular and mine does not work either. When you bring an unlocked phone over to a carrier there is always the possibility of loss of some functionality. It is probably that the frequencies are off. This is a common problem. My son just bought a Nexus 5 and brought if over to Consumers Cellular and it work great. It is just the chance you take. Other than this problem, I love the phone.

Apparently the Motorola XT530/531 will not work everywhere in 3G mode. Although they are quad-band GSM (2G/2.5G-EDGE) they will only have two 3G (HSDPA) bands. Specs on GSMarena say it can either be HSDPA 900/2100, or HSDPA 850/2100 or HSDPA 850/1900. I assume those options won't all be available for choice of the customer, will depend on the country in which the phones are being sold.

Thanks for your reply. I just want to use it in Europe. What exactly is this 3G?Basically my question is whether I have a major disadvantage from buying the US version instead of the international version. Is there anything the international version has which I need or which is one of the best features of this phone which I could not use with the US version in Europe?thanks for your help!
