CHECK! THE! BANDS!!!
Checking the bands is the difference from having slow, basically 3g speeds, and having full lte and 5g.
Most modern phones support the common 4g bands, a few years ago stuff like 700 and 1900 weren't as uniform, but 5g is critical, everyone has their own bands and there's a really good chance you might only get a minimum and highly oversubscribed band between your carrier and phone.
From what I can find Verizon supports n77 , n260, n26, n2, n5, n66.
The listed Specs for the Zenphone 10 shows the following.
US version DC-HSPA+ (DL/UL): 42Mbps / 5.76Mbps ; LTE 7CA (DL/UL) 2.0Gbps / 211Mbps 5G NR FR1 (DL/UL): 4.92Gbps / 0.55Gbps
5G Non-Standalone (NSA): n1, n2, n3, n5, n7, n8, n12, n20, n25, n38, n40, n41, n66, n71, n77, n78
5G Standalone (SA): n1, n2, n3, n5, n7, n8, n12, n20, n25, n38, n40, n41, n66, n71, n77, n78
FDD-LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 12, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, 30, 66, 71)
TD-LTE (Bands 34, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42)
WCDMA (Bands 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 19)
EDGE/GPRS/GSM (2, 3, 5, 8)
Does that seem like enough overlap?
The bands are going to be region-specific. Some areas use some bands, others don’t. Just depends where you live and the nearby towers.
In the early days (2016 ish) Verizon had very limited LTE coverage, but now I haven’t had any issues traveling anymore with unsupported bands.
