Will this Huawei Mate20 work on Public mobiles network?

[sam_kendrick16]

I'm wondering if anyone can make heads or tails of the pic attached, I see that the frequencies listed include the ones public mobile uses, but before I commit can anyone confirm that this exact one will work and how well? It's a tad confusing.

Much appreciated folks 🙂

Here are all the Telus LTE bands.  It looks like this phone has almost everything covered.  B4 is the main LTE band although with more and more repurposing 3G bands for LTE, I am finding that B2 is the new B4.

@will13am I'd pick @sheytoon's two posts over the Wikipedia article, personally:

Check compatibility at willmyphonework.net and also make sure it is unlocked.

Yes will work without any issues. Use SIM 1 tray for best results

Yes! As long as it supports LTE band 4(1700/2100)

While a phone supporting the above would work for data, it's important not to get a phone only based on that criteria.

UMTS Bands 2 and/or 5 are required or the customer won't be able to place or receive any phone calls.

@sam_kendrick16   The first SIM slot should give you good compatibility with the bands used by PM for LTE coverage.  The second SIM slot seems to only have 2G support - which is not compatible with Public Mobile.

Yes! As long as it supports LTE band 4(1700/2100)

Public Mobile works on following frequencies: 

3G(UMTS/HSPA): 850MHz/1900MHz bands

4G/LTE: B4 (1700MHz/2100MHz) bands and 700 MHz band

My friend just bought this phone from Amazon last month and able to use it on Telus(same network as PM)
