What did I do wrong? I'd like to correct whatever I did wrong so that it won't be auto marked as spam.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Thank you so much for this advice. I will look into it. I thank you again, because honestly I am so clueless.

Hmm that's strange because I posted that same website again in one of my replies and it's showing.

It's an excellent reference site.
What site doesn't have ads? Can you say ad-blocker?

It's just a general website with information about phoen devices. They likely also receive advertising revenue when people visit the website.

Uh oh, I'm scratching my head again. The link you provided shows different frequency bands to https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B09DV1DRDW/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza?th=1 But it seems like the same phone to me.

My 2 cents ....cheap overseas phones are a bad idea. It's a crap shoot between spotty band support, flakey hardware, inexistent warranty and questionable software.

I see this likely because of the linking of a website that advertises a product.

I don't know why it got marked. But you got it in here. Clever you. 🙂

This seems to show that it would be fine for 3G here. But not very useful for 4G LTE.
gsmarena agrees.
