Will this work on Sprint?

Question

I am considering buying a Sony Ericsson C902 Cybershot when it is released in the U.S. I would like to know if it will work on a Sprint plan i currently have.

Answer 1

Whether or not it's 3G wouldn't matter.  3G could mean HSDPA for GSM or EVDO for CDMA, so the only thing 3G would mean for the phone is that it will be faster than non 3G phones.

Most likely it will not work on the Sprint network.  Most Sony Ericsons are GSM, at least in the states.  You can't use a GSM phone on a CDMA network.

If it is released as CDMA there's probably a slim chance Sprint would be the one selling it.  And since CDMA phones are hard programmed to use their carrier only, I would say there is a slim to none chance of this phone working on the Sprint Network.

Sorry :(

Answer 2

It can if it was an unlocked phone.
