Is this device will work with public mobile?  I check the compatibility and not quite sure with the answer. If someone is using with the same device and working please let me know.  Thanks

I have the same phone and it works on my phone. I only have an issue that I cannot receive or send mms messages. Other than that, everything else works. Hoping to figure out the mms situation soon though!

Unless it is an Oppo product manufactured in 2014 prior to their exit from the North American market, avoid that brand because of the lack of compatibility with North American bands.  Try the OnePlus brand.  These two brands are sibblings.  The parent company is BBK.

I think @computergeek541 has already answered it correctly.

 

If you buy a phone that only supports B5 (850) for 3G, and doesn't support B2 (1900), you are at risk of having no voice calls in many locations.

I used https://willmyphonework.net/ and says supported 3G and 4GE LTE Network. Is this good?

Yeah it was purchased long time ago and we want to switch to public mobile. But if doesn't work then that's fine.

@Rj3k  not good choices. If you want a Chinese phone that covers most of the NA bands look at Umidigi F2.

The F1s should not be purcahsed for use with Public Mobile.  It lacks WCDMA band 2.
