Does the Cat S22 Flip work on Movistar?
Yes, it works.
WorksCalls and texts work over 2G, which Movistar keeps running with no switch-off date announced, and 4G data should work (shared bands: 3, 7, 20).
Calls, texts and data should all work with a Movistar SIM.
We worked this out from the phone's published bands and Movistar's own published network facts (see How we check). Nobody has confirmed it for this exact pairing yet.
