Not any we can confirm yet. Here's what we know about UScellular, and where you can get a phone that we've confirmed makes calls.

UScellular runs on T-Mobile's network.

T-Mobile bought UScellular's wireless business on 1 August 2025 and is moving its customers onto T-Mobile. You can't sign up with UScellular any more: uscellular.com now goes to T-Mobile. When an account moves, T-Mobile checks the phone works on its network, and if it doesn't you need a new phone and SIM within 30 days.
