We have added the OnePlus Nord to the list of devices which will be available pre installed with /e/OS and through the eSolutions Shop. These are brand new phones with /e/OS pre installed.
I use a Nord (not sure if it’s also the 5G version) with unofficial /e/ OS build and it’s a great device. Only drawback is the cam which is slow and throttled by OnePlus for any inofficial camera app.
I would like to have Gigaset GS4 with /e/OS. But there is even no Lineage OS for it. It is a pity that manufacturers like Gigaset do not have a close partnership with /e/OS currently. To use /e/OS as the default OS on their phones. They could help to improve the operating system.
Can I purchase the Nord from the esolutions shop if I live in the states? The only phone I see on the US availability page is the Teracube. Hoping for the Nord!
Hi,
For now the list on the eSolutions Shop shows devices available in a specific country.
As part of the testing of the phone we found that it is not whitelisted by T-Mobile and AT&T . Which means we cannot push it in US or Canada.
I did a bit of sleuthing with respect to the possibility of using this device with T-Mobile in the U.S. on an unsupported basis and here’s what I found:
5G is out of the question as NONE of the 5G bands supported by the device is supported by T-Mobile.
Extended Range 4G LTE is also out of the question as the device does not support GSM 600 Mhz or 700 MHz frequencies used by T-Mobile network
4G LTE
Frequencies that can provide LTE:
Band 2 (1900 MHz) (supported by device AND network)
Band 5 (850 MHz) (supported by device AND network)
Band 4 (1700/2100 MHz) (these frequencies are NOT supported by device)
Band 66 (Extension of band 4 on 1700/2100 MHz) (NOT supported by device).
TLDR: If (1) you are in the U.S. and (2) you wanted to use this device on the T-Mobile network, I would not hold my breath for the prospect of support as compatibility is severely limited.
Hopefully, someone can check the above to make sure I haven’t missed something obvious- Also it might be instructive to go through this exercise with AT&T if someone has a bit of spare time.
Edited to add: I wonder if every post I make in the future will require moderator approval as well…
I’m trying to buy a Murena Nord right now … the website says you are out of stock (!!!) Already, after only two weeks? Is there any kind of ETA for more?
