Does the Punkt MP02 work on Vodafone?
It works, with caveats.
Works with caveatsCalls and texts can fall back to 2G. Vodafone ends 2G for customers in September 2028. It supports 4G Calling, but we haven't found confirmation that it's enabled on Vodafone. 4G data should work (shared bands: 1, 3, 7, 8, 20).
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 Vodafone's own published network facts (see How we check). Nobody has confirmed it for this exact pairing yet.
