Will the Huawei P20 Lite work on Verizon LTE network?

[Android Central Question]

For the tasks I use for a smart phone, spending $700++ on a high-end phone is over kill. I read good reviews about the Huawei P20 Lite phone. But of course Verizon don't offer it (or any other USA carrier I think). I was wondering if I get one will LTE data and phone calling/text messaging work? And even if it did, how does the phone get OS updates? What about google play apps-can you even install them?

Thanks!

Welcome to Android Central! I don't think it'll work. The P20 Lite supports LTE bands 1, 3, 7, 8, and 20, while Verizon uses 2, 4, and 13.
