I don't think this is true now. The Moto G4 I just bought handles CDMA or GSM, depending on the SIM card. User reviews on Amazon confirms this. Network specs: CDMA: 1900 MHz GSM: 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz UMTS: 850, 900, 1700/2100, 1900, 2100 MHz LTE (FDD): Bands 12, 13, 5, 26, 8, 4, 3, 2, 25, 1, 7 LTE (TDD): Bands 41 Data: LTE Cat 4 (150/50 Mbit/s), HSPA, UMTS
