I am planning to buy myself a Pixel 3a from BestBuy, USA. It is costing 199 USD + Tax for an unlocked version with activate today option.
Will it work in india on any sim? Did anybody has similar experience?

VoLTE works fine (even with some carrier locked phones) but the problem is with the network bands
While some true unlocked phones like Essential Phone had all 4G bands some unlocked phones lacked Band 40/41, so you need to check the supported bands before making the purchase decision
that 199 price is with activation on verizon network in US. otherwise its 399
Its for sprint

199$ for a completely unlocked pixel 3a?
I don’t think so.
@getready @newuser tell one thing that if we buy this phone at $199 today with “activate today” option and then for today only we insert sprint sim in it and then remove after 2-3 days then it will remains unlocked and will work with any indian mobile network or how exactly this works? Pls tell
Insert sim – your sim gets locked to Sprint AFAIK
Buy a one plus 6t . avoid unnecessary tensions.
You should avoid.
4G bands are different in USA and India.
Moverover, we are mostly on VoLTE now, Not sure if US phones work with VoLTE.
