Is my Phone compatible?

My wife an I have Galaxy SIII GT i9300 I have Android 4.3 Jelly Bean and my wife Android4.4 KitKat. I don’t use my phone much because of the level of intrusion and am excited about /e/. The compatability list mentions Android 7 Nougat. Should I be buying a preladed phone instead

Apply all the samsung’s updates before starting the /e/install-process…

The Galaxy SIII GT “i9300” only supports 2G + 3G, but not 4G LTE. What if these network frequencies are switched off?! But for practicing and testing dev (nougat) already suitable.

In Europe I don’t think 2G will be turned off soon, so it depends on the location.
