Given the frequencies that this phone operates on, it is fully compatible with both Verizon and Verizon MVNO's as well as T-Mobile and T-Mobile MVNO's. There is limited support for AT&T and AT&T MVNO's and virtually no support for Sprint. You can see the full list of networks that the phone supports at the following url frequencycheck.com. (Updated: An AT&T variant is available for $309.99 via BH Photo.)
At a price of $299.99 the phone is currently selling for $30 cheaper than anywhere else online, making this a good deal for those in the market for a new phone.
Given the phones relatively small battery size, you may want to consider picking up a spare battery if you're a heavy user.
The unlocked 32GB LG G5 will only be available at the price of $299.99 until May 10th unless it sells out sooner, so if you are interested, head on over to Newegg Flash before it's gone.
