Does the Alcatel Go Flip 4 (US model) work on O2?

Last checked 22 Oct 20263 sourcesWorked out from published specs

Sadly not.

Doesn't work

It has no UK 2G bands (900/1800 MHz) and its 4G bands (2, 4, 5, 12, 25, 26, 41, 66, 71 (US bands)) don't match O2's.

On O2 this phone can't make reliable calls. Another network in the UK may still suit it.

We worked this out from the phone's published bands and O2's own published network facts (see How we check). Nobody has confirmed it for this exact pairing yet.

O2 (UK)

  • 3G: Switched off (completed 2025/26)
  • 2G: Staying on for now; O2 plans to begin switching 2G off from 2029

Alcatel Go Flip 4 (US model)

  • 2G: GSM 850 / 1900 only
  • 3G: 850 MHz, 1700/2100 (AWS) MHz, 1900 MHz
  • 4G bands: 2, 4, 5, 12, 25, 26, 41, 66, 71 (US bands)
  • 4G Calling: unknown – Made for T-Mobile USA. No UK/PT 2G or 4G bands.

The same applies to networks that run on O2: giffgaff, Tesco Mobile, Sky Mobile. Smaller networks sometimes handle 4G Calling differently, so check with them too.
