4G was deployed years ago in most of the world and it now considered the fastest and most spread mobile network. However, there are a lot of misconceptions surrounding it. And some people still don’t appreciate its importance.
What is 4g? Is it better than 3G? Is LG Leon 4G enabled? That’s what we will talk about in this article, besides everything related to LG Leon 4G technology.
Does the LG Leon have 4G?
Yes. 4G technology is one of LG Leon’s principal attributes.
How do you tell whether LG Leon is 4G-enabled or not?
It’s not a big deal to figure out whether your device is 4G-capable, but it’s still necessary to know how to do it. Because you don’t want to be left over with a phone lacking an essential technology nowadays.
You can check the information directly by googling the phone name or model number, and checking on the official website of the manufacturer or any other credible site. If you are a classic person, you can check the user guide or the phone box.
Another easy method is checking the status bar while the mobile data is on, if the LG Leon 4G data is on, then you will see a 4G or LTE symbol there. If it’s not mentioned then you should consider another way.
Another way is to check the settings: Go to your settings and fetch network mode, usually as follows: Settings > Cellular (or Mobile Data) > Cellular Data Options (or Mobile Data Options). If your phone is 4G-enabled you will find a 4G or an LTE option. If you don’t see either of them, then your smartphone doesn’t support the standard.
How to switch to 4G on LG Leon?
If you would like to turn on your LG Leon 4G network, then follow the instructions (it might change a bit from the settings on your own device):
1- From Home screen, choose Apps.
2- From the Apps tab, choose Settings.
3- Select Networks.
4- Make sure to turn on the Mobile data.
5- Tap Tethering & networks.
6- Select Mobile networks.
7- Tap Network mode.
8- Choose 4G or LTE option.
Note: If you intend to turn off 4G then choose a lower network type (e.g. 3G).
Definition of 4G on LG Leon
4G describes cellular network technology. It was identified by the ITU (International Telecommunication Union) and used by wireless service providers. To name a system 4G it should meet some criteria.
The ‘G’ in 4G stands for generation, and 4 means the fourth one, following 3G and before 5G. 4G networks should offer internet speeds much better than 3G, they also present low latency, which is important for some uses such as gaming services.
The most prevalent protocols identified by ITU as a 4G are HSPA+ and LTE. LG Leon 4G and 4G in most phones today use one or both of them, which makes 4G the fastest most deployed cellular network.
What distinguishes 4G on LG Leon?
4G has all the attributes of 3G at more speed. It offers download speeds of around 14 Mbps up to speeds as high as 150 Mbps, five times more than 3G. And it offers more than ten times the uploading data speeds of 3G, ranging from 8Mbps up to 50 Mbps.
Low latency is another advantage, it ranges from 60ms to 98 ms, Even though it’s only a bit lower than 3G, it is very necessary for some use cases like video conferencing or online gaming, and other real-time interactions.
The emergence of VoLTE standard added another feature to 4g technology which is the ability to make phone calls and browse the internet simultaneously, with even more suitable voice quality. All of these advantages are within your reach with LG Leon 4G technology.
Get to know 4G bands in your LG Leon
Before talking about 4G bands, you should find out what the frequency is. Frequency is the repetition of an event, and it is quantified in radio communication by hertz (Hz).
Since radio waves are used for different reasons besides 4G (radio broadcasting and Aeronautics as examples), it is essential to identify which frequencies must be used for what use. Otherwise, radio waves will contradict, and it would be a mess.
Governments and ITU allocated each range of frequencies (called bands) to certain uses.
What you should consider as a user of LG Leon, is whether it supports the bands offered in your area by your local cellular provider or not. The LG Leon4G-enabled bands are :
1, 3, 7, 8, 20 – H340N;2, 4, 12 – T-Mobile;.
