Samsung A21 compatibility

[Deno]

Hello. I am wondering if the Samsung A21 is compatible with the network? I do not see it on the drop down list. 

Thank you

It does matter to some extenet, but LTE is not a requirement to use Public Mobile., except for the official goverment emergency alert system.  LTE does get used for data and text messaging, but those also work on the 3g network as well.

The only bands that you absolutely must have (or else phone calls won't work) are the 3g bands at 850 and 1900MHz (band 5 and 2 on 3g).

Looks like it should be fine. Check willmyphonework.net. edit...The G A21 isn't on their list either but the phone will work on PM network.

It's fine. A phone doesn't have to be in Public Mobile's list to be compatible. The phone only needs to have a SIM card slot and be at least compatible with HSPA on bands 2 and 5 (1900MHz and 850MHz).
