Puerto Rico

UNDER CONSTRUCTION

This article is about the US territories Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands in the Caribbean. It's not about the British Virgin Islands where different providers operate. It needs to be read in conjunction with the article about the United States as most major operators from mainland are on the air here too.

Networks

 * AT&T USA
 * T-Mobile USA

The fourth and biggest national US provider Verizon doesn't have an own network in the Caribbean. It roams in Puerto Rico on Open Mobile (see below) instead.
 * Sprint

Two more operators cover Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands, that don't have any own network infrastructure on the US mainland:
 * Claro Puerto Rico


 * Open Mobile

Technology
For the US operators from the mainland refer to our United States site for frequencies and compatibility. Claro in Puerto Rico is a GSM-based operator with 2G and 3G on 850 and 1900 MHz and 4G/LTE on 700 and 1700 MHz. Open Mobile is a CDMA-based operator not compatible to GSM in 2G and 3G, but has adopted 4G/LTE on 700 MHz like the other providers.

Listing
This page focuses on the two local networks as the US carriers are already covered in by the United States articles. In Puerto Rico US carriers offer the same product portfolio like on the mainland added by local promotions sometimes. All USA providers regard their coverage in Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands as a domestic network where regular domestic and not international rates for roaming apply.

As Claro is much more accessible for GSM-based users, it will be displayed in detail, while Open mobile and its brand #### is only shown for its 4G/LTE capabilities and as roaming network for Verizon users.
