Microsoft Lumia 940 on Rogers Canada

[Serghei T]

I am planning to buy MS Nokia Lumia 940. The phone will be on Rogers Canada.

This is the spec from gsmarena.com for

1. Nokia Lumia 920

- LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800) - RM-821

- LTE band 4(1700/2100), 17(700) - RM-820 (AT&T)

2. Nokia Lumia 930

- LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800)

3. New Microsoft Lumia 940

- LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800)

If the spec is right, all phones have the same LTE bands.

Since my Lumia 920 works on Rogers, I should not have any problems connecting MS Lumia 940.

Replying to my own question.

Lumia 940 and 940XL are two rumored models that have been announced a while ago. Microsoft replaced these two models with Lumia 950 and 950 XL and released these two phones today, October 6, 2015. Both phones are listed on MS store website in Canada.

Both phones are unlocked and according to the technical spec should work on Rogers Canada.
