Hello...

My issue is complex, so please remain with me as I attempt to explain...

I have a Galaxy S5, and I took it to the U.S.A last year to use at first with my Vodafone SIM on contract. I was roaming on AT&T's network just fine without issues... Then I noticed that I was only able to get "HSPA+" or "H+" as it is also known... I was unable to get 3G or 4G LTE.

My question is this... If I upgraded to an S7, would I be able to get 3G/4G in the US if it is a UK phone and got it unlocked to any SIM like I did with my S5 to use an AT&T SIM card in it while I was there to cut costs of using my Vodafone SIM over there?

Please do let me know?

Fyi, h+ is considered 4g in the usa by the two major gsm carriers (att and tmobile). So you are getting 4g,though not 4GLTE. Which model did you buy? Check to see if the specific variant supports usa lte bands 2,4,5,12,17,29,and 30.
