Is "Pixel 4a 5G" compatible with TMO 5G network?

Hi I would like to know if Pixel 4a 5G is compatible with TMO 5G network.

TMO 5G states:

Frequencies that can provide 5G: 

  • Band n71 (600 MHz)
  • Band n41 (2.5 GHz)
  • Band n260 (39 GHz)
  • Band n261 (28 GHz)

 

whereas Pixel 4a 5G states: Source: gsmarena

5G bands SA/NSA
  • n41 and n71, yes!  It definitely lacks n2 and n66 though, which are also commonly used in T-Mobile’s 5G deployments.  What bands are deployed where you live and where you use your service regularly will ultimately decide whether the 4a 5G could be worth it for you or not.  

  • Check out my latest conversation on the Android community space - i turned up my Pixel 4a 5G and clocked over 260 Mbps DL speeds in Delaware County, PA.  Better than my home WiFi...

    Thanks.

    How do I find the band info out?...since I could not find that information from the coverage map.

    All I see is this from the coverage map...
