Wait what? I'm using an unlocked Moto G7 Play on AT&T, and voice calls seem to work fine?

  Because Motorola have actually bothered to pay AT&T more money just to allow their phone in AT&T's network. (https://www.att.com/idpassets/images/support/pdf/Devices-Working-on-ATT-Network.pdf https://www.att.com/idpassets/images/support/pdf/Devices-Wor...) It's basically "AT&T approved telephones" all over again. Worse, if you're on vacation in America and your carrier only supports roaming through AT&T and you happened to own a device that isn't approved (probably because that manufacturer doesn't sell their device in the US or it's the Exynos version of Samsung products), you won't receive any calls, period.

    Wow, I had no idea. What a bunch of bullshit!

    Ha, that's not true! Which is what's really bizarre! I just had a friend hit an issue where his dual SIM Xiaomi phone can roam on AT&T network on a European SIM, while AT&Ts own SIM next to it refused to connect because the carrier said the phone is "not compatible".
