LG G4 H810 vs H811 vs LS991 vs US991 vs VS986

The LG G4 was released in several versions for different U.S. mobile carriers. The main difference between the H810, H811, LS991, US991, and VS986 is network compatibility. The phones share most of the same hardware, but each version was designed for a specific carrier and supports a different combination of cellular band

LG G4 models

Model	Carrier	Network	Market
H810	AT&T	GSM / LTE	USA
H811	T-Mobile	GSM / LTE	USA
LS991	Sprint	CDMA / LTE	USA
US991	U.S. Cellular	CDMA / LTE	USA
VS986	Verizon	CDMA / LTE	USA

The H810 is the AT&T version of the LG G4. It was designed for AT&T’s network and supports the cellular bands used by the carrier.

The H811 is the T-Mobile version. It uses GSM and LTE technologies and has a different combination of supported bands from the H810. The H811 should therefore not be considered interchangeable with the AT&T model.

The LS991 was made for Sprint. Unlike the AT&T and T-Mobile versions, it was designed around Sprint’s CDMA and LTE network requirements.

The US991 was the U.S. Cellular version. It also supported CDMA and LTE, but its supported frequency bands were specific to U.S. Cellular.

The VS986 was the Verizon version. It was configured for Verizon’s CDMA and LTE network and has a different band configuration from the other U.S. versions.

In other words, the five model numbers mainly identify different carrier-specific versions of the LG G4, rather than completely different phones.

Shared specifications

The U.S. versions have essentially the same core hardware. All use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor with a hexa-core CPU and have a 5.5-inch Quad HD display with a resolution of 2560 × 1440 pixels.

Therefore, you should not expect a significant difference in performance, display quality, or camera hardware between the H810, H811, LS991, US991, and VS986. The important differences are primarily related to cellular connectivity.

Can you use one LG G4 model with another carrier?

An unlocked LG G4 can accept another carrier’s SIM card, but unlocking does not change the phone’s hardware or add unsupported frequency bands.

For example, unlocking an H810 does not turn it into an H811 or VS986. The phone remains an H810 with the cellular bands and network configuration of that model.

For this reason, check the exact model number when buying a used LG G4. The safest choice is a version originally designed for the carrier you intend to use.

In short:

• H810 — AT&T
• H811 — T-Mobile
• LS991 — Sprint
• US991 — U.S. Cellular
• VS986 — Verizon

The phones are largely identical in hardware, but their network compatibility is different. For the LG G4, the model number matters primarily because of cellular band support, not because one version is significantly more powerful than another.
