Does the Nokia 3210 (2024) work on Free Mobile?

Q: Does the Nokia 3210 (2024) work on Free Mobile?

Works with caveats. With 2G being switched off, calls and texts fall back to 3G, which this phone supports (900 MHz, 2100 MHz). Free hasn't announced a 3G switch-off date. It supports 4G Calling, but we haven't found confirmation that it's enabled on Free Mobile. 4G data should work (shared bands: 1, 3, 7, 28).

Yes, for now.

Expect it to work, but read the switch-off dates below. That's where the catch is.

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