You can use any phone with Mint Mobile as long as it has a physical SIM card or supports eSIM and is 5G or 4G LTE supported.

The network that Mint Mobile uses is the T-Mobile network that covers over 90 percent of Americans with 5G service and 99 percent of Americans with 4G LTE.

Mint Mobile is not owned by ATT and instead Mint Mobile is owned by T Mobile.

Mint Mobile is not a Chinese company and is owned by T Mobile and has headquarters in Costa Mesa, CA.

Mint Mobile, LLC is a mobile virtual network operator owned by T-Mobile US that offers prepaid mobile phone plans with physical SIM cards or eSIMs.

The company Mint Mobile was bought by T-Mobile for $1.35 billion.

Mint Mobile is backed by Ryan Reynolds, who is believed to own 20 to 25 percent of the company.

The purchase was announced back in March 2023, but the FCC only approved the deal last week.

The sister company of Mint Mobile is Ultra Mobile and also now T Mobile.

Using Mint Mobile is a great deal for most users.

With Mint's phone service you'll have lower prices and flexible contract terms.

Because it's an MVNO, Mint can suffer from deprioritization, which means users will see their service slow down if the network becomes too congested.
