Hi,
I am looking at buying a Vernee Thor Plus and the bands which is 4G LTE equiped. The 4G LTE Bands in the specs are as follows: FDD B1/B3/B7/B8/B20.

Should I go ahead and buy the phone? Will it work here in Nigeria?

Please advice.

Reply
- Viklin August 6, 2018 At 4:12 pm
  
  It will most definitely work. Those are the basic 4G LTE bands in Nigeria.
  
  B7 and B20 – MTN
  B3 – 9 Mobile
  
  Glo might not work because it’s supported with B28. Airtel supports the same band as 9mobile.
