Hello,

I  bought  a   Xperia z1 compact  from  Iran.

I have a plan to go to U.S.A.

I would like to know if I want  to use my  Xperia z1 compact,    From  which company  in U.S.A   it is better  to  buy  a sim card   ?

You would need to check your model number and the bands it works on and see if these same bands are compatible in the USA

how can I check if  my  cell phone model number and band are  compatible in the U.S.A?

Should I contact  with a specific  company in  U.S  and  check  if  the model and band  are compatible  ?

If  so, what is the name of the company?

Hi,

The network bands that the phone supports can be found in the white paper:

If the phone is going to work in the US, the operator that you are going to use needs to support one or more of the networks. For example, AT&T supports most of the bands as far as I can see:
