Wireless mobile technologies have developed enormously; one of the main developments is the development of 4G technology. It’s a term that you’ve certainly faced in your daily life, but what is 4G? And is Google Pixel 5 4G enabled? We will answer these and other questions related to Google Pixel 5 4G technology in the following article.
Does the Google Pixel 5 have 4G?
Yes. The Google Pixel 5 is one of 4G supporting phones.
Checking the availability of 4G on Google Pixel 5
The safest option to check the presence of 4G network in any phone, is to check the official website, or the official packaging.
Another credible option is switching on mobile data, and checking whether the phone connects to a 4G network or not, you’ll find that out simply by the presence of a 4G or LTE sign in the indication bar.
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 4G or LTE, then your smartphone doesn’t support the standard.
How to switch to 4G on Google Pixel 5?
If you want to enable your Google Pixel 5 4G network, then follow the instructions (it might vary slightly from the settings on your own device):
1- From Home screen, choose Apps.
2- Select Settings.
3- Tap Network & internet.
4- Select SIMs.
5- Make sure to switch on the Mobile data.
6- Select Preferred network type.
7- Select 4G or LTE option.
Note: If you prefer to turn off 4G then choose an inferior network type (such as 3G) or tap Only 5G if it’s possible.
Learn about 4G technology on Google Pixel 5
4G is an acronym for fourth-generation wireless. This means the fourth generation of mobile communication technology. It was developed after 3G and it comes before 5G. It was first officially made public in 2009, and it was made accessible 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 highest technology adopted by most mobile phones throughout the world.
Google Pixel 5 4G technology and 4G in other devices changed how we use phones, it made it possible for users to stream high-quality videos (for example). The high speed of 4G technology turned smartphones into computers since smartphone users can do everything possible on computers.
LTE (stands for Long Term Evolution) and LTE-Advanced are the best known 4G standards, and usually, people are confused between them.
Feature of 4G technology on Google Pixel 5
4G is an evolved technology that drives a lot of possibilities for users. It enables much more speed than 3G technology. While the average speed of 3G is 3Mbit/s, 4G offers an average of 10 Mbit/s.
Another benefit is the low latency. Although the difference in Latency is tiny, 4G latency made HD web streaming practicable, and a much more developed video games experience.
4G also has better quality voice calls, thanks to the VoLTE standard. It also allows you to check out the internet while making voice calls. All of these advantages are within your reach with Google Pixel 5 4G technology.
What are 4G bands? And which bands are available in the Google Pixel 5?
A 4G band is a range of frequencies used by telecommunications companies. Why this matters to you? It matters since each wireless service provider uses different bands according to the area. And not all mobiles support all 4G bands, so you should guarantee that your Google Pixel 5 supports the bands provided in your area.
It’s hard to unite the bands internationally, because each government uses different bands for different radio transactions aside from 4g (such as aeronautics and radio broadcasts). Despite this, the ITU segmented the world into 3 regions and bands for each region.
The Google Pixel 54G-enabled bands are:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, 28, 29, 30, 32, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 46, 48, 66, 71;1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 12, 28, 41, 66, 71, 77, 78 Sub6 – GTT9Q;.
