How to buy CMF Phone 2 Pro in Canada?

FranckyC

I’m in Canada, and I know no date is known yet for a release here, then I’ll try to know how to buy it from UK for instance, from nothing UK, but it is like you can just sign up for updates ?!!, On Amazon, it s like it is not available, …….. any idea, am I missing something ? ……… I don’t understand why it’s so hard to get hold of when the brand has done so much advertising for the release of this new phone.

FranckyC Nothing Phones are generally not meant for USA and Canada, as they are only sold in the UK, Europe and Asia. You can sign up to the Beta programme but I do not know if the CMF products are available in this programme.

Thank you Daniel for your comments, I m seeing if a CMF phone pro 2 bought in UK, Europe, could work in Canada, frequency, bands, etc, ….

FranckyC If you buy a UK variant from amazon.co.uk or nothing.tech (UK), them it will not work with any SIM card providers in Canada as there are different frequencies for the phone mobile signals in the UK than for Canada. No SIM providers in Canada will even support this phone as it is not meant to be sold in Canada.

The CMF Phone 2 Pro seems to support nearly all bands used in Canada, save for 13 and 29 for 4G/LTE, not sure how fundamental these are to the functioning of the phone. I guess it depends what area you’re in, whether urban or rural, and the underlying infrastructure

Fyi the Nothing Phone 3a Pro also has gaps in n71 for 5G and 13, 29, 71 for 4G/LTE

(from Nomad website) Generally, Canada uses the following frequencies:

3G: 850 MHz & 1700 MHz
4G/LTE: 600 MHz (Band 71), 700 MHz (Band 12, Band 13, Band 17 & Band 29), 850 MHz (Band 5), 1700 MHz (Band 4 & Band 66), 1900 MHz (Band 2) & 2600 MHz (Band 7 & Band 38)
5G NR: 600 MHz (n71), 1700 MHz (n66), 2500 MHz (n41), 2600 MHz (n38) & 3500 MHz (n78)
