Oneplus unlocked phone

I'm thinking about switching to xfinity mobile. ALL my phones are unlocked (OnePlus 8, Pixel 3 & iPhone XR)

I'm trying to find out if my OnePlus 8 is compatible? I know OnePlus works on Verizon. On website it only gives option to choose Apple, Samsung or Pixel devices. 

model number is IN2015

XM still uses CDMA (3G) for text (SMS) messages, and lacks to ability to switch an individual account to SMS via Lte (like Verizon offers).  So while your OnePlus device will work for calls via Lte and data, it will be hamstrung for texting.

@NEWcam30era  Can you elaborate more on this ? I've made the switch with my OnePlus 9 pro. The calls are great, I can send texts, but cannot receive them. Any thoughts ?

Sorry, but I can't.  My response was based on cause and effect observations plus a few previous posts by others who had tried.  If you want to further understand the root cause you could try posting your question here > xda-developers.com  (and go to the appropriate forum)

@user_afa3d3 Wondering if you ever found a work around for your OnePlus 8 sending txts on Xfinity?

According to the specs  OnePlus 8  and 9 both support CDMA see below specs

That is a fantastic question! I would need to refer you to one of our Xfinity Mobile experts and you can reach them by calling 1-888-936-4968. They would be able to tell you if the OnePlus8 would be compatible with our services, though typically, if it isn't listed on the website it wouldn't be compatible with our service.

I have an unlocked OnePlus 8 that I used with at*t, t-m*bile and Visible which uses verizon's network as well and it worked fine.  I need to know if it'll work with xfinity mobile? It's a IN2015 as well
