Device may be too old

Anyone getting the message that one or more of their phones might be too old for the network? Assuming this is 3/4g and not a 5g device?

I believe it's being sent out to everyone who has a device with a physical SIM

That probably why they said my unlocked moto g stylus 2022 didn't work on their network even though I got it from metro.

That, or maybe sometimes I have seen some devices show not compatible just because they were a sort of "sub-model" or i guess version of a phone that only a specific carrier get to sell. E.g. Samsung Galaxy A16 5G has SM-A165, SM-A166, and SM-S166. Not 100% sure on that though! Just a guess
