I thought the iPhone SE (2016) was GSM compatible?

I was trying to set it up with TracFone.

Here are the different models and the bands they support, what carrier are you trying to use? Any chance that the phone is "carrier locked"?

There certainly are 2016 SE models that work on GSM, I have several on AT&T, they were purchased as "Unlocked".
