Wireless mobile technologies have progressed enormously, One of the main developments is the rise of 4G technology. It’s a word that you’ve certainly encountered in your daily life, but what is 4G? And is Oppo Find X2 4G enabled? We are going to answer these and other questions related to Oppo Find X2 4G technology in the following article.
Does Oppo Find X2 have 4G?
Yes. The Oppo Find X2 supports 4G Network.
Definition of 4G on Oppo Find X2
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 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 are latency limits 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+.
Advantages of 4G on Oppo Find X2
4G is an evolved technology that drove a lot of possibilities for users. It enables much more speed than 3G technology, while the average speed of 3G is 3Mbit/s, 4G has an average of 10 Mbit/s.
Another advantage is the low latency. Although the difference in Latency is only a few milliseconds, 4G latency made HD web streaming attainable, and a much better video games experience.
4G has also clearer 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 Oppo Find X2 4G technology.
How do you tell whether the Oppo Find X2 is 4G enabled or not?
Nowadays, it is unavoidable to buy a 4G-capable device, because most internet uses need a good internet connection. To know whether the phone is 4G capable you can use multiple means.
An easy method when you have the device in your palm is just switching on the mobile data, if the Oppo Find X2 4G data is activated, then you will find a symbol at the top of the screen, in the signal bar. It might be 4G, 4G+, LTE, or LTE+ according to your carrier.
The absence of that icon means that you are not using 4G at that specific moment, and it doesn’t signify obligatorily that your phone doesn’t enable 4G. And that takes us to the second option.
Check your phone specifications on the manual, or in the device package. If you don’t have any of them you can still check that on the official site (or any other credible website) using the device name or model number.
Another way is to check the settings: open your settings and search for 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 4G option or LTE. If you don’t see either of them, then your smartphone isn’t 4G capable.
How to switch to 4G on Oppo Find X2?
If you need to turn on your Oppo Find X2 4G network, then follow the instructions (it might vary a bit from the settings on your own device):
1- From Home screen, choose Apps.
2- From the Apps tab, select Settings.
3- Select “SIM card & mobile data” or “Dual SIM & Cellular Network”.
4- Select the sim card you want to manage (the one used for data if your device is dual sim).
5- Select Preferred network type.
6- Choose 4G or LTE option.
Note: If you would like to switch off 4G then choose an inferior network type (3G for example) or tap Only 5G if it’s possible.
What are 4G bands? and which bands are available in the Oppo Find X2?
Before talking about 4G bands, you should know what is a frequency. Frequency is the repetition of an event, it is quantified in radio communication by hertz (Hz).
Since radio waves are exploited for several applications besides 4G (television broadcasting and satellite communication as examples), it is important to decide which frequencies must be used for what use. Otherwise, radio waves will contradict, and it would be a mess.
Governments and ITU allocated each range of frequencies (called bands) to certain uses.
What you should consider as a user of Oppo Find X2, is whether it supports the bands provided in your area by your local cellular operator or not. The Oppo Find X2 4G enabled bands are :
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 12, 13, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, 28, 29, 32, 34, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 66;.
