Most phones nowadays are 4G enabled, fulfilling the need for good speed. So is BLU G51 4G enabled? And what is 4G in the first hand? We will answer that and explore other issues related to BLU G51 4G.
is the BLU G514G-compatible phone?
Yes. BLU has included 4G in BLU G51 phone.
How can I know whether BLU G51 supports 4G or not?
Before buying your phone, you want to make sure that it enables 4G. You have so many options to do it, and we will list some of them here. The most obvious method is to check the criteria on the user guide or in the phone’s box.
If you don’t have them or you are still lying on your couch trying to find the most appealing device for you, you can do the same on the internet using the device name or model number.
If you would like to check your current phone, just turn on the mobile data; if the BLU G51 4G data is on, then you will immediately see immediately see a 4G symbol on the top of the screen. You might see LTE or LTE+ instead of it. However, this way might be deceptive if you didn’t activate a 4G plan, or you are out of coverage.
Another way is to check the settings: open 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-capable you will find a 4G or an LTE option. If you don’t see either of them, then your smartphone isn’t 4G-capable.
How to switch to 4G on BLU G51?
If you intend to switch on your BLU G51 4G network, then follow the instructions (it might vary slightly from the settings on your own device):
1- From Home screen, tap Apps.
2- Choose Settings.
3- Select Mobile network.
4- Verify that Mobile data is On.
5- Select Preferred network type.
6- Choose 4G or LTE option.
Note: If you want to turn off 4G then choose a lower network type (3G for example) or tap Only 5G if it’s possible.
What 4G is on BLU G51?
4G is the fourth generation of mobile telecommunication. It was first released in 2009 in South Korea, and it was deployed after that all around the world until it became the fastest and most used network in mobiles.
The provider of 4G network specifications is the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), it has also identified 5G, and 3G specifications before that. The ITU specifies what internet speeds and what latency limits are acceptable to call a network protocol a 4G.
Many protocols passed the test and qualified as 4G, the most important are LTE, LTE+, and HSPA+.
Why is 4G on the BLU G51 important?
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, starting from 8Mbps up to 50 Mbps.
Low latency is another feature, it ranges from 60ms to 98 ms, Despite the fact that it’s only a bit lower than 3G, it is very necessary for some use cases like video conferencing or online gaming, and other live interactions.
The development of VoLTE standard added another advantage to 4g network which is the ability to make phone calls and browse the internet at the same time, with even enhanced voice quality. All of these advantages are within your reach with BLU G51 4G technology.
What are 4G bands? And which bands are supported on your BLU G51?
A 4G band is a range of frequencies used by cellular carriers. Why this matters to you? It matters because each mobile network operator uses distinct bands corresponding to the area. And not all phones support all 4G bands, so you should make sure your BLU G51 supports the bands offered in your area.
It’s hard to formalize the bands at the international level, because each government uses different bands for different radio transactions aside from 4g (such as aeronautics and radio broadcasts). Despite this, the ITU divided the world into 3 regions and bands for each region.
The BLU G514G-enabled bands are:
2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 12, 17, 28, 66;.
