No stateside Nothing phone 4a

JustinRevell

Here’s a question if I buy the nothing phone 4a from the UK. Will it work in the US?

JustinRevell If you do the money conversion, you should just get the pro instead! Not much more and it has more features!

JustinRevell No it will not have compatibility with US carrier networks, the UK uses different 5G network nodes to the US, as we are currently phasing out 3G over here. Also, you might not receive specific updates for your region (i.e. Emergency Alerts, Software Updates).

infiniteturnip26 Yeah don’t bother trying, Nothing use Royal Mail / DPD in the UK for shipping, and they would only ship in the UK and not overseas. If they were to use Parcelforce (which has now merged with Royal Mail), then it might be possible to get a UK phone over to the US.

Also, it might cost you more to import it from the UK to the US due to Trump’s 15% tariffs currently in effect.

I like the style of the 4a. The 4a Pro looks unfinished.

If you try to order from the UK store - they will only ship to the UK, not the US.

Believe me, I tried…

What a bummer.. Thanks

I know, I was letting the OP know NOT to try that - it would have been a waste of his time.
