Internet speeds in phones are considered presently almost the same as computers, and that’s thanks to the development of 4G technology. So what is 4G? And is LG X style 4G enabled? If you want to know more about LG X style 4G technology, then check this article carefully.
Does the LG X style have 4G?
Yes. 4G is one of LG X style built-in features.
How do you tell whether LG X style is 4G-capable or not?
There are various ways to check the presence of 4G in your LG X style, or any other phone. And assuming you’re not a techy person , I suggest that you start by checking the phone box, network information is usually provided there. Or you can simply google your phone model name and find out the information on the official website of the manufacturer.
If you have already bought the phone and inserted the SIM card, you can turn on the mobile data, if the phone connects to a 4G network you will observe a 4G ot LTE sign up on the status bar.
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 4G or LTE, then your smartphone doesn’t have the technology.
How to switch to 4G on LG X style?
If you intend to switch on your LG X style 4G network, then follow the instructions (it might differ slightly from the settings on your own device):
1- From Home screen, choose Apps.
2- From the Apps tab, choose Settings.
3- Make sure to turn on the Mobile data.
4- Choose Networks.
5- More.
6- Choose Mobile networks.
7- Choose Network mode.
8- Select 4G or LTE option.
Note: If you intend to turn off 4G then choose a lower network type (such as 3G).
Learn about 4G technology on LG X style
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+.
What are the advantages of 4G on LG X style?
4G was developed to offer a more reliable internet connection on mobiles, and that’s truly what it did. 4G technology grants you much better 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 achieve as high as 900 Mbit/s.
Another vital criterion of 4G, is its low latency. We can promote latency as the time needed to transmit data or the delay between the action and the actual response. Lesser latency means a better user experience. 4G Latency is better than 3G by double. The average 4G latency is 50 ms.
With the assistance of the VoLTE standard, 4G now offers better voice quality in phone calls and gives users the ability to surf the internet while making calls.
All of these advantages combined with the low cost of 4G widened the use of LG X style 4G technology, to include better video conferencing, online gaming, and other real-time interactions.
Get to know 4G bands in the LG X style
A 4G band is a range of frequencies used by cellular carriers. Why this matters to you? It matters since each telecommunications company uses different bands according to the area. And not all phones support all 4G bands, so you should assure that your LG X style supports the bands present in your area.
It’s hard to regularize 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 sectioned the world into 3 regions and bands for each region.
The LG X style4G-supported bands are:
1, 3, 7, 8, 20;3, 7, 20 – K200DS;.
