Does the TCL Flip 2 (US model) work on NOS?

Last checked 22 Oct 20263 sourcesWorked out from published specs

Mostly, with a catch.

Works with caveats

Calls and texts work over 2G, which NOS keeps for voice, but its 4G bands don't match, so expect no mobile data.

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

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