[paindoree]

Hello,

I was wondering if samsung a200k nori F is compatible with public mobile? It is a korean phone and it's like

5-6 years old now...also I have to order it so I'd like to know in advance if it will work with public mobile.

For more information on the phone I found this link : http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_a200k_nori_f-3752.php 

I'd appreciate if someone could answer me as soon as possible!

Thank you and have a nice day.

Based on the specs of the phone, it won't work at all.  Either way, you'll want a different phone model.

This phone does NOT support 850/1900 band as needed to work with Public Mobile 3G.

No problem.  I just didn't want the the OP to think that it would work.

@computergeek541 ok thank you...it was a bit confusing since everyone seems to be saying different things, but I believe i've read somewhere that even if I get it, I won't get any connection in the most areas.. 0.0''

Just to clairfy, this phone does not support the network type that Public Mobile uses.

Hi @paindoree

  The 2G network of Telus is CDMA, which already shut down in most area. Your phone can't support this type of 2G, and it also doesn't support LTE. That's why it only get 3G/H services. Thanks.

@nishufan ah okay thank you !! And may I ask why only 3g?

Hi @paindoree

   If it's a unlock phone, it will work with 3g only.Thanks
