Looks nice but correct me if I'm wrong:

Yet again another phone that does not get 4G/LTE data in US...

Might not even do 3G in the US -- maybe on T-Mobile.

Looks like maybe if it's the "Global" model of the Pro 5, it might work at 4G LTE on Sprint and its resellers. Every other carrier it's no service or 2G at best.

ed: source is WillMyPhoneWork?

Is there a global version?


EDIT: Yes! Not sure how broad the coverage but an encouraging sign!

That's the five-dollar question, I guess. WillMyPhoneWork lists two sub-versions of the Pro 5, the M576 (Global) and the M576U (China). Whether the Ubuntu version is one of these or a third version isn't obvious to me from what I've read. The jd.com web page doesn't mention anything about model number. But it does call it dual-SIM.

Me, I'm excited to try the improved "daily plugging-in experience".
