Internet speeds in phones are considered presently almost the same as computers, and that’s thanks to the emergence of 4G technology. So what is 4G? And is Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe ZE551ML 4G enabled? If you want to know more about Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe ZE551ML 4G technology, then read this article carefully.
Does the Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe ZE551ML have 4G?
Yes. 4G technology is one of Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe ZE551ML’s principal features.
How do you tell whether Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe ZE551ML is 4G-enabled or not?
Nowadays, it is inevitable to purchase a 4G-capable phone, because most internet users need a good internet connection. To know whether the phone is 4G-enabledor not, you can use multiple methods.
An easy way when you have the phone in your palm is just turning on the cellular data, if the Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe ZE551ML 4G data is activated, then you will notice a sign at the top of the display, in the signal bar. It might be 4G, 4G+, LTE, or LTE+ according to your carrier.
The absence of that sign means that you are not using 4G at that particular moment, and it doesn’t necessarily signify that your phone doesn’t support 4G. And that takes us to the second way.
Check your phone specifications on the manual, or in the phone package. If you lose both of them, you can still check that on the official site (or any other trustworthy website) using the device name or model number.
Another way is to check the settings: Go to your settings and look for network mode, usually as follows: Settings > Cellular (or Mobile Data) > Cellular Data Options (or Mobile Data Options). If your phone supports 4G 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 Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe ZE551ML?
If you would like to enable your Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe ZE551ML 4G network, then follow the instructions (it might differ a bit from the settings on your own device):
1- From Home screen, select Apps.
2- From the Apps tab, tap Settings.
3- Choose “More…”.
4- Tap Cellular/Mobile networks.
5- Make sure to tick Data enabled option.
6- Select Preferred network type.
7- Select 4G or LTE option.
Note: If you would like to turn off 4G then choose an inferior network type (3G for example) or tap Only 5G if it’s possible.
Introduction to 4G technology on Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe ZE551ML
4G describes cellular network technology. It was determined by the ITU (International Telecommunication Union) and utilized by telecommunication companies. To name a system 4G it should meet some specifications.
The ‘G’ in 4G is the first letter of the word generation, and 4 means the fourth one, just after 3G and preceding 5G. 4G networks should grant internet speeds much better than 3G, they also offer 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. Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe ZE551ML 4G and 4G in most phones today rely on one or both of them, which makes 4G the fastest most utilized mobile network.
Why is 4G on the Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe ZE551ML important?
4G has all the attributes of 3G at more speed. It provides download speeds of around 14 Mbps up to speeds as high as 150 Mbps, five times faster than 3G. And it provides more than ten times the uploading data speeds of 3G, starting from 8Mbps up to 50 Mbps.
Low latency is another advantage, it ranges from 60ms to 98 ms, Although it’s only a bit lower than 3G, it is very important for some use cases such as video conferencing or online gaming, and other real-time interactions.
The development of VoLTE standard added another feature to 4g technology which is the ability to make phone calls and surf the internet concurrently, with even improved voice quality. All of these advantages are within your reach with Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe ZE551ML 4G technology.
What are 4G bands? And which bands are available in the Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe ZE551ML?
Before talking about 4G bands, you should know what the frequency is. Frequency is the repetition of an event, and it is measured in radio communication by hertz (Hz).
Since radio waves are exploited for several purposes besides 4G (television broadcasting and satellite communication as examples), it is essential to decide which frequencies must be used for what use. Otherwise, radio waves will contradict, and it would be a mess.
Governments and ITU designated each range of frequencies (called bands) to specific uses.
What you should consider as a user of Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe ZE551ML, is whether it supports the bands offered in your area by your local mobile operator or not. The Asus Zenfone 2 Deluxe ZE551ML4G-supported bands are :
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 18, 19, 28 – Taiwan;1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 20 – Global;1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 17, 20 – US;1, 3, 38, 39, 40, 41 – India;.
