Does the Qin F21 Pro (global) work on Iliad?
Yes, it works.
WorksCalls and texts work over 2G, which Iliad keeps running with no switch-off date announced, and 4G data should work (shared bands: 1, 3, 7, 28).
Nothing on Iliad's published plans affects this pairing right now.
We worked this out from the phone's published bands and Iliad's own published network facts (see How we check). Nobody has confirmed it for this exact pairing yet.
