iPhone 8 supports 4G LTE. Your carrier is a liar and is trying to sell you a new phone. And 4G LTE will be around until at least 2030.

The CDMA networks listed for one model of iPhone 8 are the 3G networks that are being shut down this year by Verizon and TMO/Sprint. So they won’t be available, but LTE will be available.
