That is a GSM only phone and not compatible with the Verizon Wireless network.

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

There's quite a lot of discussion about "unlocked" phones, Chrisp68. I'm glad you're asking about this potential purchase ahead of time. It's unclear whether the Galaxy Folder 2 would work here on our network. It is not in our current lineup of devices. In order to find out if it can be used on our network, you'll need the Device ID. Using this link https://www.verizonwireless.com/bring-your-own-device/#checkDevice you can then determine whether or not it will work on our network. Does this help answer your question?

Thank you for the reply. I guess I probably won't figure it out then since i don't want to purchase it for the device ID only to find that it may not work. Thank you again.
