I currently have an iiif150 r2022 which runs Android 11. It has lasted me till now but time to upgrade. I need to be sure that the phone I am buying will work properly on public's network but there's so many numbers I'm never sure.

These are it's numbers:

GSM: B2/3/5/8

WCDMA: B1/2/4/5/6/8/19

CDMA: BCO/BC1/BC10

FDD: B1/2/3/4/5/7/8/12/13/7/18/19/20/25/26/28A/288/66/71

TDD: B34/38/39/40/41

While it looks to support enough LTE bands to work, it seems doubtful it will be on the supported list for VoLTE, which is quickly becoming necessary to make calls. https://publicmobile.ca/en/get-help/articles/volte

@pinkpoizon

Your Doogee S118 should work on 4G on 750, 850, 1900 and 1700/2100 MHz frequencies or B2, B4, B5, B7, B12, B13, B17 and B66 LTE.

But check the APN on your phone if it matches:

public mobile apn setting 2026

It also need VoLTE for voice calling.

I would not buy this phone!!

while the phone has the bands required to use on PM network, it lacks the VoLTE support with Public Mobile. The phone could have VoLTE itself but it is not on PM's VoLTE whitelist

PM is retiring 3G network. The work already started slowly but 3G network will be fully retired in 2 years. Without VoLTE, you need to fall back 3G for voice. With the retiring of 3G network, your will see more drop calls and you will not be able to make/receive any calls very soon.

I would avoid this phone and choice one that is VoLTE compatible with PM network
