Sony Xperia

I'm looking at a new Sony XPERIA 1 III XQ-BC72 phone.

It says it works with 3G bands five and two. It also works on LTE bands one, four, sixty-six.

Does that mean it should work with Public Mobile?

 @dalponis : It'll be fine. From this pdf:

LTE (Bands
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 12, 13, 17, 19, 20, 25, 26, 28, 29, 34, 38, 39, 40, 41, 46, 66), UMTS
HSPA+ (Bands 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 19)

Yes, it will work with Public mobile.

Public Mobile uses the following frequency bands:

• 4G LTE and LTE Advanced: 700 MHz, 850 MHz, 1900 MHz and 2100 MHz downlink and 1700 MHz uplink (AWS). 
• HSPA: 850 MHz, 1900 MHz (UMTS).   

3G = 850 (5), 1900 (2)

4G = 850 (5), 1900 (2), 700 (12/13/17/29), 1700/2100 (4), 2600 (7), 1700/2100 (66)
