Samsung Galaxy A50 - compatible with public mobile's network?

[Korkai]

Hi,

My dad wants to switch to public mobile.  His phone, Samsung Galaxy A50, is not listed on the compatibility list.  Can someone please confirm whether or not his phone is compatible with public mobile's network. Thanks.

Great tip. Thanks a lot!

Thanks for your reply.

Are you PM client? Easiest way to verify will his phone work is to put your PM SIM into his phone and confirm. I am sure his phone will work based on specs.

Yes. The "W" denotes a Canadian version of the model.

Yes, the Samsung A50 is compatible with PM. 
Try conducting a search under Samsung Galaxy A5 (older version of A50).

@Korkai yes, A50 is compatible on PM  

Best if you get a North American version, but other variant should work here as well
