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

Last checked 23 Oct 20264 sourcesWorked out from published specs

Yes, for now.

Works with caveats

Calls and texts work over 2G, which Vodafone keeps running with no switch-off date announced. Its 4G bands (2, 4, 5, 12, 25, 26, 41, 66, 71 (US bands)) don't match Vodafone's, so expect no 4G data.

It works today, but calls on the TCL Flip 2 (US model) rely on a part of Vodafone's network with a switch-off on the way. Check the dates below before you commit for years.

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.
