Hi, i’m looking at getting one of the HMD barbie phones. both versions are available on UK amazon and i prefer the specs of the US version, will it work with my EE sim?

Can you post a link to the specific device you're querying? It's the 4G & 5G frequency bands that are most important.

The device will need to support 4G Bands 1, 3, 7, 20 & 28. 5G Bands N28-700Mhz, N78 3500Mhz, along with 1800 & 2100Mhz

Yes it’ll work on EE 

The device uses 

 EE use

 2G, 4G, 5G 1800MHz (Band 3); 4G, 5G 2100MHz (Band 1); 4G 800MHz (Band 20); 4G, 5G 2600MHz; 5G 700MHz (band 28) and 5G 3500-3800MHz (NR Band 78) …

Be aware EE's 700Mhz & 800Mhz spectrum does rely on a VoLTE-compatible SIM/device combination, which may not always be the case with foreign-spec phones.

1800Mhz is EE's base 4G layer.
