Question 4

How slow is Public Mobile?

Accepted Answer

Public Mobile is Canada's newest wireless carrier, and it's also the cheapest. But how fast is its 3G network? According to PCWorld, Public Mobile's 3G speed is only 3mbps. That might not sound very fast, but it's still fast enough for most people to stream high-quality audio without any problems. Keep in mind that 3mbps is the maximum speed; your actual speed may be slower depending on your location and the number of people using the network at the same time. But even if you only get half that speed, it's still plenty fast for streaming music or watching videos. Public Mobile isn't as well known as some of the bigger carriers, but that could change soon. With prices this low, it's sure to attract a lot of new customers.
