S9 on Xfinity Mobile, fully unlocked or Verizon? SquareTrade protection worth it?

[Slammed01]

What’s the correct model to use on Xfinity Mobile? Amazon has unlocked for $448, anyone see that coming down on 8/7 release?

Most likely making a jump from iPhone SE, also is SquareTrade warranty worth it? I see eBay sells for $68 for 2 years but amazon is $110!

Thanks!

Xfinity will not work on a s9 unlocked phone

Why is that? They recently allow s8/s9...just trying to figure out which model and if bands are same.

beats me, I went into the xfinity store to get on there plan with a galaxy s9 unlocked phone and they said it will not work. My phone has all the necessary bands to work so I requested they insert a xfinity sim card and they could not get it to work. My understanding that a branded s9 will work

I ran a S8 and S9 imei for unlocked versions and showed comparable and able to work.

Did you do recently?
