Public Mobile doesn't offer phones. You will need to purchase one through other outlets that will sell phones. Costco, Walmart, Staples and online resources as well would be a good place to start looking for the type of phone you would want

Public Mobile does not sell phones..any phone that is unlocked that is compatible with Public Mobile can be used. Just buy a sim card and put it in

You have to have your own phone. If you shop at Costco, they usually have some budget phones for sale. Usually Samsung or Motorola brand.

If it's the Samsung galaxy a5 2017, @EmmaJack86 . Then according to this post https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/Phones-Hardware/Is-anyone-using-the-Galaxy-A5-2017/td-p/145351 it will work on PM's network.
