Connectivity
- Network
- 2G / 3G / 4G / 5GFull 2G to 5G sub-6 band set on paper, including the North American bands. Balance's US store is narrower than that. It says the Pro runs on most US networks and names T-Mobile, Metro by T-Mobile, Mint Mobile, Ultra Mobile, Tello, Mobile X, Google Fi and US Mobile GSM plans, then tells anyone on AT&T or Verizon to switch carriers. The older FAQ still says the Pro works with no issues, so the two pages disagree.

It tells anyone on AT&T, Verizon, Cricket Wireless, Visible, Consumer Cellular, Spectrum Mobile, Xfinity Mobile, US Mobile Warp plans, Straight Talk or TracFone to move to its own Balance Mobile service instead. The Pro is the only Balance model sold in the US.

Notes
The only Balance handset sold in the US, because it is the only one that works on US mobile data. Balance OS is included for the life of the phone, and the yearly subscription applies only if you put Balance OS on a Samsung you already own. Balance sells its own eSIM plans now as well.
