Dear Ubuntu Touch users
I am considering buy a BUDGET smartphone and install Ubuntu Touch.
Tello, prepaid provider which piggybacks on T-mobile, wrote me
-
At present, 4G and 4G/LTE services have not been discontinued and remain widely supported. However, some carriers are gradually transitioning spectrum and resources toward 5G networks.
-
When 4G/LTE services are eventually phased out, devices will generally be required to support:
- 5G Standalone (SA) connectivity
- Voice services over modern IP-based systems (such as VoNR, and VoLTE where LTE is still partially active)
- Compatibility with specific 5G frequency bands and certification requirements.
In the past, Oneplus 6/6t was an ideal BUDGET phone. Unfortunately it is 4G LTE phone and eventually
will be phased out. T-mobile announced plan to discontinue 4G and 4G LTE even last year - the writing
is on the wall.
I am looking at the future. What is a good BUDGET phone that works with 5G?
Thank in advanced for your opinion.
