HI All, 

We have a list of 3G and 4G bands that PM uses and we use that to confirm if phones will work here

How about 5G? what bands 5G works? 

And there will still be phones (mainly Asian and European) that will not work on PM 5G network? or there will still be phones work on Rogers 5G but not the 5G here?

Bell and Telus are not using n41.

Rogers has 20 MHz of n41.

n41 in Canada is really band 38. It's not the same as US because we have B7 FDD.

HI @sheytoon  

an on n41 not used here?

curious, does Rogers use the same 5G bands?

and international phones might still lack n66/n78/n71  so not there is still high chance foreign phones won't work, or might not work perfectly, on PM network?

5G list is good idea but 5G and Volte features may be disabled for scamming.

It's really hard to find this information using Google. WOW!

From what I've found, these is only theory. This is what Telus uses. I would assume Public Mobile would share.

Low-Band 5G Freq:  600 MHz: Band n71

Mid-Band 5G Freq: 1.7/2.1 GHz: Band 66 3.5 GHz: Band n78

n41 (2500), n66 (1700), n71 (600), n78 (3500) are the 5G in Canada. The original past I did had the 5G bands. Then it got removed. LOL

According to the PM Site the 700 MHz, 850 MHz, 1900 MHz and 2100 MHz downlink and 1700 MHz uplink (AWS) bands cover 5G, 4G LTE, and LTE Advanced.
