Public Mobile will not be offering "5g" service any time in the near future.  Public Mobile doesn't even offer the fastest LTE speeds that are available to new customers, so I would unfortuantely say that "5g" is a very long ways away.

In the future if you like to purchase any device for public mobile phone compatibility

you have to put it a device brand for any phone to you can see all information,

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).

Good Luck...

@MGL Just an update, the phone is currently out of stock on the Samsung website. It's because there is a world wide chip shortage, which means there might be more phones that are out of stock.

agree with @LeePublic .  Samsung A1x is a good entry level phone with good price

@MGL Would recommend buying straight from the Samsung Canada website. It's $209 CAD. It would be guaranteed to work with Public Mobile since it is optimized for the Canadian market.

@MGL 

is will work with public mobile but my suggest you to buy it Canadian Version is better...

[Triguy]

Yes, it is compatible but it does not have 1900 band.

@MGL 

It will work, but might not work well depending on location.

Here are the specs:

https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_a12-10604.php

3G bands	HSDPA 850 / 900 / 2100
4G bands	1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 20, 28, 38, 40, 41

It is missing an important 3G band 1900.

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)

Samsung A12 International  would work, but I will avoid

The 3G bands, it only have 1 of the 2.  So, it might not work that well..  You might have dropped calls.

Even LTE bands, it has only 2 compatible bands
