Does the Mudita Pure work on Vodafone (VodafoneZiggo)?

Last checked 23 Oct 20265 sourcesWorked out from published specs

Mostly, with a catch.

Works with caveats

Calls and texts can fall back to 2G. VodafoneZiggo hasn't published a date, but has told the Dutch government it expects to switch 2G off in 2028 or 2029. It supports 4G Calling, but we haven't found confirmation that it's enabled on Vodafone (VodafoneZiggo). Its 4G bands match (shared bands: 1, 3, 7, 20). There's no mobile data on the phone itself (Mudita only allows USB tethering to a computer).

Fine for now. The catch is how calls get through: if they ride on 2G or 3G, they stop when Vodafone (VodafoneZiggo) switches that off.

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