LTE technology, known as 4G, is the natural and future development of mobile phone networks, and recently the race began between companies to launch phones that support this technology and many blamed Apple for not supporting this technology in the last 4S phone and some expected it to support it this year in the next phone before the end The year, which is the iPhone 5. But what is this technology and is it time to actually move to it? And is Apple at fault for not supporting it in the 4S phone. We discuss these points in this article to learn more about Lte.
LTE technology appeared in Japan by telecom company NTT DoCoMo in 2004, but it remained just an inactive technology on the ground until 2009 when TeliaSonera signed an agreement with the famous Chinese company Huawei to cover the city of Oslo, Norway, with Lte networks. The spread of the technology continued to be relatively slow. Before the end of 2009, Telefónica had conducted several trials of the technology in England, Germany and some other countries. At the end of 2010, Vodafone Germany began spreading the technology, and in September 2011, AT&T announced the launch of the service on the market. As for our Arab nation, in September 2011 Etisalat, Mobily and Zain announced the technology in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Also in the same month, Etisalat in the UAE announced support for Lte technology, with a coverage of 70% ... and there Upcoming LTE Mena 2012 conference At the end of April in Dubai would help expand 4G service in the Middle East and North Africa.
Globally, the number of real operators of this technology reaches almost 50 companies in all countries of the world, and you can see a list of the companies operating it. Via this link. You can also see the following picture ...
(The states are in color الأحمر Service is available, in color اDark blue Plan when it will be available, in color light blue Experiments were performed to enter the service andIn gray Did not plan, tried, did not set an appointment)
LTE technology is considered ultra-fast as it is 20 times the speed of the current 3G, and to be more accurate, the speed of LTE is 299.6Mbit / s compared to the speed of 14MBit / s in the case of 3G, so it is considered to be very fast, but to reach this speed requires specific hardware adjustments. Also, the size of the processor for 4G is large and the most serious defect so far is that scientists have not been able to solve a more serious problem, which is energy, as it consumes very high energy. And standby mode. That is, you get a bigger and more weighty phone And less in contact time. Here is a comparison between the Samsung S2 phone, the traditional version that we all know and the version dedicated to LTE networks, and we notice the increase in size, weight and the shortage of time, taking into account that I compare the two phones in the case of 3G and 4G and of course if I turned on the phone S2 on the 2G network, the time period would be It is bigger, but we are content with 3G.
As we have seen, the Lte phone is equipped with a 200 mAh battery larger and the talk time is close to half or a little more, and the waiting time is less than a third, meaning that if you buy a 4G-enabled phone, you may need a mobile power cord with you to charge it continuously ... all this Leading us to say that the companies' acceleration to support 4G is not a correct decision, and this matter prompted Winston Yung, financial director of the famous Taiwanese phone company, HTC, to say that the company's decision to enter the field of LTE technology before its completion is a wrong decision for the company and cost it great losses, which is one of the reasons for the decline in profits The company 26% in the last quarter of the fiscal year.
After this quick study on 4G or LTE technology, we conclude the following ...
- Apple's delay in entering this field is a 100% correct decision because it is unreasonable to add incomplete technology that consumes batteries and requires an increase in the size of the phone and is not widespread worldwide.
- We have to make a mistake and say "I own a 4G phone" because the name of the phone is iPhone 4 and the word 4G is a word for technology ... and this error is very common We see him sometimes From companies
MobilyMajor contacts;). - There is no need to rush to buy a phone with Lte or 4G technology because it is not supported enough and you will pay more money to get a less efficient phone.
- The LTE technology is not in its final form, but it is said that 2012 will become the year of the Lte, so we expect that phones in the future will witness a great improvement in this area, and if this field has witnessed a remarkable development, we expect at the time that Apple will support it in the next iPhone 5 phone.
- LTE or 4G technology is not only concerned with mobile phones, but it also includes other devices such as the Internet's USB modem. That is, it is a technology for data, the Internet, and phones. It is one of the devices that use the Internet. Vodafone Germany introduced the modem early and announced in February 2012 that it would provide Lte phones in cooperation with HTC.
In the Name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, may God bless you for your valuable accomplishments.
For correction, the 3G speed supports up to 21 mAh, and this speed is the one supported by the Samsung Galaxy S2 and Note devices
The iPhone 4s supports up to 14 MB speed only
In the end, all these speeds with our telecom companies are useless
First, I thank the tremendous efforts of the workers at Yvonne Islam
Because it frankly shows the wonderful effort exerted in our inspirations with everything about the iPhone. As for the issue of 4G, here I see that Japan was the race for its technology far from its completion or not. I hope that we will be able to be a spectator only and to be within this fast ride. God bless. I am your new friend
You really are creative, Yvonne. Greetings
Unfortunately, the iPhone's constellations are weak
It is the core of the device
If the foundation is weak
The upper structures will not last in the market
Only she continues
Strange two years Saudi Arabia in blue, but it is propaganda
Correct ..
LTE is not 4G
LTE is part of the 3G family
As for 4G, it is still just a reserved name for the next coming after LTE, and it has not been announced yet
Considered its beginnings
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4G#3GPP_Long_Term_Evolution_.28LTE.29
The pre-4G technology 3GPP Long Term Evolution (LTE) is often branded “4G”, but the first LTE release does not fully comply with the IMT-Advanced requirements. LTE has a theoretical net bit rate capacity of up to 100 Mbit / s in the downlink and 50 Mbit / s in the uplink if a 20 MHz channel is used - and more if multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), ie antenna arrays , are used.
Thank you for this comprehensive and comprehensive topic in terms of steps and clear style, as you touched on another topic, which is the occurrence of some people and telecommunications companies (of course not Mobily or nothing) in the mistake of naming the iPhone 4 as iPhone 4G ... and your clarification of a very important thing criticized by many, which is Apple's delay in updating Products, but the truth is that this is what distinguishes Apple, which is that it has not, and will not, skip any steps before making sure of its success in all standards.
Eh, we are still lagging behind 3G, let alone with LTE technology
Frankly, Apple is a typical company that only cares about profit, but is concerned with the consumer and his interest first
It is still too early to use this technology, although it will solve the problem of slow internet resulting from lying and swindling telecommunications companies providing services.
Apple does not offer technology or development, but it is thoughtful and detailed 😃
There is an error in the report. The speed of the third generation is XNUMX megabyte, while the fourth generation is XNUMX megabytes, please advise me if I am wrong ??
The truth is, the technology is great
But in light of the continuous development .. the application of the service must be accelerated. It is possible to take advantage of the speed in downloading by using the power supply cable temporarily to take advantage of saving time for updates and downloading, and then return to normal use of the battery under 3G service
Hello. A while ago I was watching ads and I was wondering what XNUMXG is, and then I understood. ,,,,,, Thank you for the clarification.
I think that it is necessary to improve the weak and lost internet speeds in some places and then move to another stage until we have used the technology completely and not just talk that we have 4G and others. In the hurry of regret, I thank you for this useful and valuable information about everything new and useful
May God reward you well .. God was confusing me and Shaw G4 .. !!?
And you did not shorten and long as an edifice of knowledge
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Thank you Yvonne Islam for the wonderful effort in educating us about
The latest modern technology.
First: Apple is one of the most successful companies and always looking
The things are righteous, and the evidence is its permanent success
Second: 4G technology is great, but it may take a lot of
Time for development in Arab countries, and that is not due to failure
The development of telecommunications companies, but because telecommunications companies in
Arab countries are concerned only with taking whatever pocket
Fake contests
As for western countries, the opposite is true, but we hope for
Our communication companies have to do the hard work for serving
Society until we are from civilized countries and in a field
Contact if possible ... 👍
What really offends me is the appetite of people and companies to technologies without paying attention to their devastating impact on the nature around us.
Do you know that bees are extinct due to mobile horoscopes? And that with the extinction of bees, there will be no agricultural crops, and there will be a catastrophe of famine for humans
May Allah reward you
I also don’t buy any unfinished technology. Actually, its price will be greater than the current one that most companies and countries agree on.
Higher prices may be reasonable if the service solves many communication problems, especially in villages and mountain areas.
But as a speed, 3G is not necessary for the purpose and more, and I think that my business is only profitable ………
Thank you Yvonne Islam for the valuable and useful information
The question is is there a real advantage at this speed if we don't feel slow with our current usage! How can we bear the additional disadvantages of an imperceptible advantage !!
Speaking of experience
One of the friends in America calls me Skype and Viber via the iPhone and uses 4G and I have Wi-Fi and the connection has great, it cuts off and the sound is clear
If I talk to him, I am via 3G, my Lord, if you talk to him for 4 minutes without interrupting the connection, because it is very clear that the communication speed difference is between XNUMXg and XNUMXg.
In Saudi Arabia, I expect in the new year the salvation of using 4 g will be more and better than 3g
The difference is not only in the speed, but in the quality of the Internet in the Arab world compared to America
So 3G here is not comparable to 3G there
Apple .. I like it very much for the company to take decisions and be slow in most matters. Really, it is a very correct decision, which is slowing down before introducing modern technology, and of course, this will be in the interest of the company and the user… and in it, Apple will maintain its luster in the market .. Thank you
Hahahahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh a liar on a lie, but i wish I shall take my heart
STC Lowest Life.
Collectively, I am a resident of Yanbu Industrial City, which is called the City of the Future, which is full of factories and technologies. Can you imagine that the STC telecommunications company, I have my request from them for comprehensive DSL prospects? They replied that it does not work in my neighborhood, even though I live in Camp 3. Most of my neighbors enter the service. The thing is that 2G works hard. We are still behind at the beginning. They must master 3G technology, then 3G, and then the advanced 4G. In two dimensions, think of XNUMXG
I see that telecommunications companies are not losing money by providing 4 g, unlike device companies, so telecommunications companies have a market that is not the opposite of devices.
I want to see 4g ads in the UAE, but I don’t do it and I don’t think that I change my device. We are waiting for a new Apple for this technology. We judge
Apple is right in every step you take
My comment is the most important
If the companies gave us
14 Mbps
Or even 7 Mbps, as they claim, when we need to speak at 4G speed
In Kuwait, the best speed that can be obtained is 1.5 Mbps from the three companies out there
We must be aware of the slow service and high prices they give us
Brother editor
Believe me
3G technology will be a thing of the past
And the telecom companies will overcome all the problems
And cell phone companies will release devices that coexist with technology beautifully and solve battery problems
Because the issue is related to money
God bless you
I didn't mention otherwise
Of course the future is for Lte, but I just mentioned that it is still early and I think next year it will start spreading
Apple exposed the telecom companies that pay lip service to the provision of the G الفور service
Great technology
But the battery and maintaining it is important
We are not always in places where we can always charge the battery
We need to conserve the battery and its efficiency
We are waiting for that to be taken care of
We welcome this technique
thank you
Regardless of whether Apple is correct or not, I think that the reasons mentioned in the article are not the real reason or let's say it is not a sufficient reason because it is possible to add the 4G feature in the iPhone and make it optional, as is the case now in our choice of the 3G or 2G network, and thus it can be Save energy for those who want it, and can enjoy 4G speed for technology lovers regardless of its drawbacks
Overall a good article and thank you for its author
See the following comparison and the talk time on the 3G network itself
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=4198&idPhone2=3621
You will find that the phone is younger even if you use 2G as well
Thanks to the author of the report ,, Excellent
Thank you, Yvonne Islam
Great service and connection speeds on the Internet are improving every day, and it is definitely in everyone's interest.
I think that this service is not important in phones, but it is necessary in the USB
Originally, companies in Saudi Arabia lie, and this is only propaganda for women
There is no 4g, nor for them to grieve, and I challenge someone who has tried this service in Saudi Arabia.
Brother Islam, I would love to add information to the blog, especially since I am a fan of it, brother. You must know that all mobile manufacturers and Apple also produce three models in a row at a close time, meaning that they design a model and add the possibility or some capabilities in the next model. A precedent, especially if companies compete with each other for the same technology such as Samsung and Apple, confirming my words. Notice Apple when it released a model immediately, so that Samsung will house the same technology in record time and vice versa, thank you brother Islam
Of course, Apple's decision is very correct in terms of technology that is not available in our Arab countries and in terms of battery work
An interesting and interesting topic. I have XNUMX megapixels and I feel it is great. How would if I use LTE technology?
The most successful policy of Apple and my brother, 3g is a failure and weak, it is possible to download a new service without fully supporting the previous service
On the contrary, this is in the interest of Samsung
Now, Apple does not download the iPhone XNUMX, and it may be supported by LTE technology and what they support
Samsung will have sufficient experience with this technology and all its advantages and disadvantages and will benefit from this experience
I mean, when the Samsung Galaxy S2 supports LTE technology
Ok, think with me, dear reader, what will be the Samsung Galaxy S3?
Is this the question? !
I mean, you always, iPhone.
LTe technology, after I read, I knew a lot about it, and I was frank in an unknown ambiguity and information was not something that means, but after this article we are afraid that we have committed suicide, we underestimate its value; He knew more, and Apple was really 100% injured in saying and doing it.
The world is on the verge of LTE technology, and in my opinion, it is a technology that means something the same as what we see in cinemas, but it is followed by some changes, a tick from me and a tick of yours.
Using the LTE technology is a useful thing for the people who have it, I mean things that cannot be delayed for something common, such as work, task, or trade. Trivial "Sorry for the word, but ..." such as downloading a game, jailbreaking, chats, or all things that have the meaning of "" "a waste of time." ""
As for preaching in most cases things are important and you are not upset,
I am sorry for the prolonged saying, thank you, read on, and this is my opinion of something, meaning simple, short, choppy, short, but it is not like this.
Thankfully, the iPhone is Islam and the honesty, by God, without swearing, you are the first in my classification of news and other programs. I mean, in the brief, the iPhone without an iPhone Islam frankness means frankness that he would throw "the generosity of God the reader and the listener" in the garbage. Top ,
I repeat, sorry, if you feel if this is from me, I say, God willing, I will not fail
Thank you, iPhone Islam
We always like your information
Inquire if you will allow me how to gift an application via iPhone
Thank you very much. .
For the Arab world in the first place, the speed of the Internet via fiber-optic cables does not reach the speed of LTE, and therefore the addition of service by operators in our large homeland (if they actually added it) is futile no more
Thank you so much
Your topics are always meaningful
Wonderful article, and as usual valuable information for every user
The service could cost a million
Then we spend XNUMX million ads
After that, we do not develop the service this way we are
Thank you Yvonne Islam for the most wonderful information
forward
👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much. P information.
Thank. Yvonne Islam. But I can trust the telecom companies in Saudi Arabia to cover 3% of the 4G service in the Kingdom, and then they will think about XNUMXG
Iphone 4G
Can you go to 4th Generation;)
It might be true, but to say 4G sure did not mean this :)
It would be right if they didn't say iPhone 4GS
So what does 4GS mean ?? Do you mean the fourth generation fast ??
I am with you, Apple, in everything
As for the subject, this is the policy of the Apple company, which I know best
And here in Saudi Arabia, by God, XNUMXG operates in all regions and in the correct manner, and then they say that we are the first operator of XNUMXG, but frankly, I do not know who is the first communication and not Mobily
Haha
Telecom companies are supposed to be ashamed of a little and analyze to take it from us and cover major cities with 3G and 4G
In Kuwait, complete coverage of 3G and the Internet, a maximum of 6,0MB, for the entire time between 1,0MB and less
The problem we have is that they are racing to lie to the consumer saying [we are the first to use 4G]
😳😳😳😳
They are the mcmolo 3G network
😂😂😂😂😂
We are suffering from the service of Al-Thuraiji Al-Zafta. We want a solution. Thank you
Frankly, Hanna Al-Arab is the last to work with this technology
thank you for the valuable information :)
Thank you Yvonne Islam, thank you Apple
It is easy to cover a country with a small area such as Kuwait with this technology, but it is difficult to cover a country the size of Saudi Arabia with a hill of technology, and the fact is that Apple was not a pioneer in any technology until it was a pioneer in the field of G, so the proverb says that the length of the grapes, Hamed, says.
Well we don't want Apple XNUMXG now
At least you didn't put XNUMXG technology for XNUMX and XNUMXS devices
The speed of the XNUMX reaches only XNUMX Mbps and the XNUMXS XNUMX, while most devices and even Nokia devices reach XNUMX Mbps
In other words, iPhone development is very slow and slow
Where did you get this information from, my dear brother
Here is the latest Nokia phone, the Lumia 800
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=4240&idPhone2=4212
You'll find it's just like the iPhone 4S
And Nokia N9 too
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=3398&idPhone2=4212
Nokia N8 and X7 are both 10 megabytes
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=3252&idPhone2=4212
You might be referring to the unreleased Lumia 900 or the Samsung NoteOS 2
And not most devices
I may have made a mistake when I said most of the devices, but this does not change that the SXNUMX, for example, has a speed of up to XNUMX megabytes, which was released no less than half a year before the iPhone.
I own an iPhone XNUMX and in the place where I live, the internet speed through the network reaches a maximum of XNUMX megabytes, and my side with the SXNUMX sponsor is much faster than me
Meaning, at least in the iPhone XNUMXS, they used the technology that makes the internet speed XNUMX Mbps instead of boasting about the next iPhone, although at that time it will be old.
Valuable and important information
Thank you very much to the people in charge of this site Islam iPhone
Apple is still in the lead 🐎🐎🐎🐎
Thank you, iPhone Islam for all the topics and useful information you provide to us. I thank you with all my heart
Really amazing topic and a very special site, and I always follow you on my iPhone
Let's get in on the topic
LTE technology is really a lot, but it is expensive for some companies, so it is necessary to wait for a proof of time until the course of things becomes clear, and we officially say hello to LTE.
Regarding the second point, we can say that it is not very necessary for personal use, but as I said earlier this feature may be very important in the future
Thank you
I don't want to jump like that in technology.
May God grant you wellness to all those responsible for this successful achievement
May God guide you
From my point of view, 3G is enough for the time being
Thank you Yvonne Islam
By God, Iraq does not have a 2G, 3G or 4G network, Zain Iraq’s network, and the rest of the networks are poor and take money without interest, and there are no types of services except for the woooooo
Thank you Yvonne Islam for the clarification
I think that this technology will fail on mobile, but it will actually succeed in the modem
In my opinion, this technique is also necessary for the average user, especially those who have a very large load
Now everything is too big if we want it to the best quality
The problem was the first thing that this technology delivered to Arab countries, the price, unfortunately, which will be very high
Now in Saudi Arabia, the 3G network is weak and there are more G2 towers
And companies in Saudi Arabia claim that they have covered 4G !!!!!!
Hahaha
In spite of singling out the muscles of the telecom companies and their caresses for some in the past in the operation of the service
However, although I am a resident of the capital, the XNUMX g did not work as required
The XNUMXG is still suffering from interruptions, so how about the XNUMXG
I expect a good Apple policy in this haller. Let technology spread, processors evolve and become energy efficient, and then we enter
Battery problem is always the weakest link
Even at the beginning of the spot, the prices will be illogical
Therefore, Apple's decision is correct and severe
It takes two years for the FG to start spreading and prices are reasonable
I am talking about the 3G network in Saudi Arabia, which is still weak in major areas, but even the 2G network does not exist in some areas. You also notice that you have a telecommunications tower nearby, so how to move to 4G and 2G 3G are still weak in Saudi Arabia .. Please pay attention to the availability of the Internet everywhere This is not a difficult matter for stc or Mobily communications .. because our life at the present time there must be internet in all places for your business and communications to be completed as required,
Thank you iPhone Islam for what you have provided
Thank you very much :)
Really, your words, my brother, are true
We see telecommunications companies spend money introducing this costly new technology and in a maximum of three cities and enter into honest competitions, or say dishonest if you want, in order to obtain the title of the first 4G LTE service provider in the Middle East and North Africa and how the news was announced in the same format by the companies The three and on the same day also Saudi Telecom, Mobily and Zain, and photographing customers who have experienced this technology, amid the surprise and ridicule of the participants of this competition, while these companies neglect or are unable to fully cover the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia with 3G technology.
In fact, we still see some cities still working on the first generation EDGE technology
I wish the introduction of Lte 4G technology had covered at least 80% of the populated areas in Saudi Arabia.
Apple always seems to be right 😊
Not necessarily it is always behind in the world of networks as 3G was lagging behind
I support Dr. Khaled
Without fanaticism, Apple is wrong with the decision
Because if the mobile companies did not pay the need to provide technology
And its development will remain as it has been in Japan for many years
Without development
Apple is mainly suffering from the battery in the iPhone, so the first is treated
Her problem before providing technology
Apple helps advance technology and is not the leader in all fields
And in the field, whether you provide it or not, it will not be very differentiated with the user
Our problem at the moment is not the speed of the Internet for most of us
The 3G is too good or satisfying enough as fast and our problem is with the amount of data and the coverage areas
Greetings
Thank you Yvonne Islam
But there is a correction
LTE technology and its patent is registered in the name of Huawei
The Japanese company could upgrade it later
But the technology is an innovation by Huawei.
The first deal was actually made in Norway between Huawei and the telecom company there
Correct to your information The first LTE platform was invented by the Swedish company Ericsson, which founded this technology, West Huawei or Nokia ... But as is known about the Chinese, copying and sticking any technology as soon as possible even before it was officially launched
Adequate explanation and wonderful
Thank you Yvonne Islam, I love you
In God, we are always enlivened by something new
By God, technology is necessary, and the Japanese are not negligent to be honest
But I see now that the connection is convenient and fast, and above this, it is not attached to the iPhone battery
On top of this, Saudi Arabia has not yet been fully covered by XNUMXG technology
I mean, we can attach the service to iPhone XNUMX
Ashan to cover Saudi Arabia Hahahahahaha
Saudi Arabia will cover this year with the new service, my dear brother
Wonderful article
As always, thanks go to all those in charge of this pioneering website
As Apple does not rush and catch up with advanced technology
Its policy is to wait and provide what is most appropriate for the present time while preserving future plans
Pen Jar: Still Waiting for the Next Back and Dash (Windows XNUMX)
I hope whoever has news to inform me when will Windows XNUMX be officially released?
The trial version will remain available to the public this month, and the final version has not yet been announced
Thanks for the clarification, but the consumer wants the best, regardless of whether the company thinks about winning it first!
Please explain the CDMA technology present in some mobile devices that support this technology and its differences from GSM technology
CDMA is used in America and Canada
And it depends on the satellite mainly and some ground stations in the complement
It is a rudimentary technology that lacks many of the features available in 3G
This and God knows
Thank you, Yvonne Islam, for a lot of wonderful information. I hope you will inform us more and thank you again
The problem is that the 3G network is not fully covered in Saudi Arabia, and we are suffering from it while we are in a major city, which is Jeddah
When this technology spreads, people will rely on it more than Wi-Fi, but will they allow us to download large-sized programs through it and not necessary Wi-Fi?
I operate "Delivery" in America without the iPhone. Working is difficult because I use the mobile phone, and it must be fast, otherwise I lose the address, especially if you are on the highway ..
I operate on the iPhone 😍
Valuable information, and God willing, it will be present on the iPhone XNUMX because speed is necessary ... because we are in the time of speed 😁
Really Apple made the right decision. Since I knew this company, all its ideas and directions were in the interest of the user
It is not so important to be attached to every new technology as important to benefit from it as is the case with this service
Thanks, Yvonne
If he survives in terms of technology, I agree with the camels in technology because he is the Apple company. If he gives everything it has without specifying the time and time, then it will become a big problem for the company’s benefit. IPhone lovers, but the people who specialize in the Apple company are more knowledgeable than us in the market and for sure they are always in the search and knowledge of everything that is going on in the world of information technology. I respect everyone’s opinion, but I believe in “slowing, safety.” Speed is required, but caution is also required. My greetings
Thank you for the clarification
Especially the speed limit
Until now, we are satisfied with the performance of the iPhone
We expect the iPhone 5 to be a masterpiece
We are all waiting for it, regardless of its price
Which would be very high in my view
Yes, a new technology needs strong and integrated support. If it is completed, it will be the beginning of a distinctive technology, especially for the iPhone
Does the technology support Saudi Arabia and does the Zain operator support?
Nice article we really understand the difference. And thanks to Apple for not adding the feature, the battery is not lacking.
God bless you all
As for me, I do not want the idea at this time. Thank you.
