Hello, the problem with less known brands here is the risk that they may not work with Fizz's VoLTE.
We cannot know this in advance.
It is not a matter of frequency and the phone's VoLTE support but rather whether it supports Fizz's settings.
The phone should preferably be from USA or Canada versions; otherwise, the reception may be poorer given the number of supported frequencies. This is true for 4G and 5G as well.
So since none are on Fizz's list, we cannot know whether or not it will work.

I am worried about security update for these new phones. It is a guest to buy one.

I haven't heard of them until this post! Do they have models that you can try in person at Best Buy?

Agreed. Hope they start doing something about it so, we can use it. I wanna try them, as its UK brand + they are using kinda stock Android, coming from Google/Motorola.

Verify the network bands it supports and volte compatibility. Because once 3G is gone you will face problems with calling.

That is a good point to be kept in mind. Thank you very much

I would say it is not even related to being a known brand or not. Xiaomi is the 3rd biggest cell phone manufacturer (they sell more phones than Google, Motorola, Huawei...). Before the Volte compatibility issue everything was working fine with my Xiaomi but now it seems that Volte is not fully compatible with all carriers. It is really confusing. It seems that some Volte compatible phones do not work with some carriers and I don't fully understand why. It was easy before, you simply had to look at the frequency bands but with Volte it looks like carriers and manufacturers do not share the info allowing customers to know if Volte will work or not, even if the phone is Volte compatible.
