I have a FIzz canadian account with US coverage. While in US, my phone is dead, if i buy a new unlocked iphone in Florida, will it work automatically when i put my FIZZ SIM CARD in the new phone ?

Hi Francois

Please check the exact model number is starting with A...., I checked couple of model and they are compatible, but please check the right model

For an LTE-compatible phone configured with LTE network preferences:

Calls: Your device must support HSPA 850 MHz or 1900 MHz frequencies
Mobile data: Your device must have dual-frequency support for 1700/2100 MHz (also called AWS or band IV)

Your phone can also support other frequencies that allow it to take advantage of the LTE network.

For a phone that only allows 3G or HSPA preferred:

Calls and / or mobile data: The phone must support the 1700/2100 MHz frequency (also called AWS)

Please check the model number as suggested and make sure your phone support all the necessary bands.

Hi Francois

Sorry you are having phone issues.

Yes an unlocked iPhone from USA should work with Fizz mobile.

BTW have you checked why your phone isn't working? Perhaps it might be an easy fix.
I believe the phone repair shops in Florida are open. You can likely get a free estimate.

Always check with the exact model, that it is a good excuse to upgrade the phone

Francois,
If it's a compatible phone for the Fizz LTE network, it's supposed to work without problem.
