Boron LTE in Chile?

Hi!

Is anyone using the Boron LTE in Chile? If so, are you using the Particle or another SIM provider?

Would I better off (meaning would it be more stable) using a Boron 2G/3G instead?

My preference is to use the Boron LTE because it is less power hungry and I am stuck with battery-only power.

Thanks

The Boron LTE with the Particle SIM can only be used in the United States, Canada, and Mexico at this time.

Note that with a 3rd-party SIM card it can only be used with a carrier that supports LTE Cat M1, which is different than the regular LTE used by your mobile phone. Cat M1 is the IoT subset which is less expensive and uses less power.

A quick Google search did not show any carriers that support LTE Cat M1 in Chile, but I could be wrong.
