Wireless telecommunications has recorded a lot of development in the last few years, changing the way we behave. One of the important developments is the emergence of 4G. So is BLU Vivo 5R 4G compatible? And what is 4G? We will answer this and every question related to BLU Vivo 5R 4G.
is the BLU Vivo 5R4G-capable phone?
The answer is yes. BLU Vivo 5R can use 4G network technology.
How do you tell whether BLU Vivo 5R is 4G-capable or not?
It is important to check whether your device supports 4G before buying it. The easiest option is to read your phone specifications in your phone box, or in the user guide. If you don’t possess the package or didn’t find the manual, you can see your phone specifications on the official website of the manufacturer or any other credible website.
The second method is verifying the status bar. If the BLU Vivo 5R 4G data is turned on, you will find a 4G (or an LTE) sign at the top of the phone’s display. Note that the absence of that symbol doesn’t necessarily mean that your phone doesn’t support 4G.
Another way is to check the settings: open your settings and find 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 BLU Vivo 5R?
If you need to turn on your BLU Vivo 5R 4G network, then follow the instructions (it might vary slightly from the settings on your own device):
1- From Home screen, choose Apps.
2- Choose Settings.
3- Make sure the the Mobile data switch is turned on.
4- Choose “More…”.
5- Tap on Mobile/Cellular networks.
6- Tap Preferred network type.
7- Select 4G or LTE option.
Note: If you prefer to switch off 4G then choose a lower network type (such as 3G) or tap Only 5G if it’s possible.
What 4G is on BLU Vivo 5R?
4G stands for fourth-generation wireless. Meaning the fourth generation of cellular communication technology. It was created after 3G and it comes before 5G. It was first officially released in 2009, and it was made affordable years after all around the globe.
Although 4G network is not as fast as 5G, it is much faster than 3G. Currently, it is the fastest technology adopted by most mobile phones all around the world.
BLU Vivo 5R 4G technology and 4G in other devices changed the way we use phones, it made it possible for users to stream high-quality videos (as an example). The good speed of 4G network turned smartphones into computers since smartphone users can do anything permitted on computers.
LTE (stands for Long Term Evolution) and LTE+ are the best popular 4G standards, and usually, people are confused between them.
What are the advantages of 4G on BLU Vivo 5R?
4G was established to offer a more reliable internet connection on phones, and that’s exactly what it did. 4G technology presents much stronger downloading and uploading speeds than 3G.
The average 3G speed is around 1.5 to 9 Mbit/s, while the average 4G internet speed is between 15 to 90 Mbit/s, it can reach as high as 900 Mbit/s.
Another significant criterion of 4G, is its low latency. We can simplify latency and say it’s the time needed to send data or the delay between the action and the actual response. Lower latency means a better user experience. 4G has 100% better latency than 3G. The average 4G latency is 50 ms.
With the aid of the VoLTE standard, 4G now provides better voice quality in phone calls and gives users the capability to browse the internet while making calls.
All of these advantages combined with the low cost of 4G extended the use of BLU Vivo 5R 4G technology, to include better video conferencing, online gaming, and other real-time interactions.
What are 4G bands? And which bands are supported on your BLU Vivo 5R?
A 4G band is a range of frequencies used by telecommunications companies. Why this matters to you? It matters because each phone carrier uses special bands corresponding to the area. And not all phones support all 4G bands, so you should make sure your BLU Vivo 5R supports the bands provided in your area.
It’s hard to formalize the bands worldwide, because each government uses different bands for different radio transactions aside from 4g (such as aeronautics and radio broadcasts). Despite this, the ITU sectioned the world into 3 regions and bands for each region.
The BLU Vivo 5R4G-enabled bands are:
2, 4, 7, 12, 17;.
