Share This Post

Today, we see an onslaught of promotional campaigns and advertisements on 4G across media channels… all imploring you to upgrade to a 4G network. So, why should you bother upgrading to 4G? 4G is a high-speed technology which simply means that you can browse the web at crazy speeds, upload and download videos a lot faster than you could before and much more. However, all of this depends on the network and the smartphone you’re using. Here are some of the benefits of upgrading to a 4G service…

HD audio calling

Unlike traditional networks, 4G (VoLTE-enabled) networks support high quality audio transmission as well as noise cancelling. If you’re making calls from one 4G VoLTE Phones network to another, you’ll find that the audio quality is a lot better, and the connection times are close to nothing.


Seamless video calling

Video calling requires a strong internet connection, without which, you won’t be able to place video call. With a 4G connection, you can now enjoy HD audio-video with your family and loved ones. You can even have multiple contacts on a single video call. This however depends on the service you’re using.


Quick downloads

Remember those days when you had to download data on a 2G/3G connection? Downloading movies could take even a day at times. Now, with a good 4G service, you can upload and download content easily. You can also stream and download entire movies and TV shows no matter where you are. You can even play games online without lag at all.


Faster browsing capabilities

Making online payments using a 2G/3G was extremely painful. Pages would take a long time to load. Sometimes, the connection would disconnect and you would have to restart the entire process all over again. It was preferable to stand in queues for a long time, to pay bills. Now, with a 4G connection, you can perform all your tasks without having to sacrifice your precious time. Surfing the web, online shopping, playing games, uploading videos, downloading and streaming content is a lot more convenient now.
