Which U.S. Carriers do these phones support?

Fatman71196The big ones are AT&T and T-Mobile but there are other smaller carriers that are on GSM that will support these phones.
Grabbed from the OnePlus forums, this is the connectivity bands for the OnePlus Two: GSM: 850, 900, 1800, 1900MHz WCDMA: Bands 1/2/4/5/8 FDD-LTE: Bands 1/2/4/5/7/8/12/17
So just make sure the carrier you want can operate on at least one of those bands. Check out this forum post for an extensive list of compatible carriers for many different countries. It's for the OnePlus One but the connectivity bands are pretty much the same so you should be able to go off of that. Don't take my word for it though, double check!

sciroKeep in mind the Oneplus 2 supports more bands than the X. The X lacks serious support for LTE in the US, which is unbelievably frustrating. I'm so tempted to buy the X, but the lack of LTE support in the US is driving me insane. I've been trying to get ahold of AT&T in my area to see which bands they operate on. I know I should have HSPA & GSM support, but according to GSM arena, the X only supports (in the USA): LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900) The Oneplus 2 is much more US focussed in terms of their network support. Here's a full comparison of the phones, including the differences in their network: http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=7630&idPhone2=6902
*Be sure to check with your local network provider to make sure your phone will be supported!*
I wish they would put this in the product description, it can be a heck of a deal-breaker.

OdusYea no kidding, that should definitely be a caveat in the description. I know I didn't read into it when I purchased the OnePlus One way back when and was really bummed that I couldn't use it on Verizon. Luckily I was switching to AT&T so I was able to use it (a year later lol) but for others that could indeed be a deal breaker.
