Buying a phone

New here. Been looking for compatible phones to use with PM. Is there a list available or what is best way to select a compatible phone?

Thanks

There is no complete list. Look for phones with at least UMTS 850/1900MHz. That part is required for phone calls, but can also be used for text messaging and data. Ideally, you should also look for a phone with LTE band 4.

Best Buy, Amazon, Walmart, and Staples are a few examples of where phones can be purchased.

Thanks. So any Telus or Koodo phone I hear will work.

Yes, as long as it's not an old CDMA phone that doesn't take sim cards,

Correct. I would be getting a newer phone.

Thank you!

Ran across this if it may be good for users looking for compatible phones.

Hope it helps!
