What frequencies are used in the UK?There are a total of 5 different frequencies used in the UK used by the mobile networks to deliver their 2G, 3G and 4G mobile services.
800MHz (Band 20)900MHz (Band :sunglasses: 1800MHz (Band 3)2100MHz (Band 1)2600MHz (Band 7)What frequencies do the different operators use?Each operator in the UK utilises different frequencies to deliver their mobile networks with the core networks being EE, O2, Vodafone and Three. Then there are also operators, called mobile virtual network operators (MVNO), who utilise the backend of the core networks to offer their own services.
The frequencies used by the major UK networks are listed below:

You all mock this guy over the band 20 comment but it is quite important. It's the lowest 4G frequency so it penetrates, refracts and diffracts more than the higher frequencies, also the networks are less supportive of older technologies these days. I made this mistake when 3G came out, and now 4G's been out a while don't expect an awful lot of support from the networks if you have patchy 3G coverage, as 2G is becoming worse still - it's not like you can tell them you're using a grey imported phone that isn't available in the UK; any issues, they will almost definitely blame you even if it's not your fault. That's before even considering congestion on 2G/3G during busy times.
It's a great price for the phone but with a big compromise and I reckon it'll always be at the back of your mind, 'is it because I don't have band 20 support, or is there just no signal here?'.

That's like posting on a left hand golf clubs deal and then saying 'Can't use them if you are right handed'

Even if it had band 20, it wouldn't work on some networks in the U.K. as access to it is sometimes locked down to certain devices, meaning non-specified ones can't use it

Dolby Atmos... on a mobile phone? I’m sorry, what!?
Load of BS then? They claim to enhance the performance of your smartphone speakers but they're still smartphone speakers. Polishing a turd springs to my mind

Because not everyone gets a boner over 4g. The specs are excellent for this price and the fact it's Motorola not some boshed together brand makes it a very good deal. Gonna look at reviews.

It's 128 quid at AliExpress Chinatronic Store with potential 8% Quidco. Gold or Silver, take your pick. Personally, I would go for 3GB/32GB Redmi Note 4 Global Version for about 15 quid less or the 4gb/64gb Global for about 15 quid more...
