Checking the availability of 4G on Oppo Mirror 5
There are multiple ways to check the affordability of 4G in your Oppo Mirror 5, or any other mobile. And assuming you’re not a techy person , I suggest that you start by checking the phone container, network information is usually illustrated there. Or you can simply search on google using 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 notice a 4G ot LTE sign up on the notification bar.
Another way is to check the settings: Go to 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 supports 4G you will find 4G option or LTE. If you don’t see 4G or LTE, then your smartphone isn’t 4G enabled.
How to switch to 4G on Oppo Mirror 5?
If you want to turn on your Oppo Mirror 5 4G network, then follow the instructions (it might change a bit from the settings on your own device):
1- From Home screen, select Apps.
2- From the Apps tab, tap Settings.
3- Tap Mobile Networks.
4- Tap Preferred network type.
5- Select the sim card you want to manage (the one used for data if your device is dual sim).
6- Select 4G or LTE option.

Introduction to 4G technology on Oppo Mirror 5
4G is the fourth generation of cellular communication technologies, it comes just after 3G and before 5G. Although 5G is the fastest technology present in the market, 4G is still the fastest most spread technology.
4G has fast uploading and downloading speeds, overstepping the previous 3G standards, and it also has decreased latency, allowing users to do much more things using their phones, things such as live conferencing.
To be more precise, 4G is a term assigned by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), and it is also a commercial word used by mobile network operators to exhibit a set of protocols used in their networks.
One of the most famous protocols is LTE and LTE-Advanced, So for Oppo Mirror 5 4G to be useful, it should be correspondent with the protocols used by the local wireless carriers.
Feature of 4G technology on Oppo Mirror 5
4G is an evolved technology that enabled a lot of potential for users. It offers much more speed than 3G network, while the average speed of 3G is 3Mbit/s, 4G offers an average of 10 Mbit/s.
Another benefit is the low latency. Despite the fact that the difference in Latency is very small, 4G latency made HD web streaming practical, and a much better video games experience.
4G has also 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 Oppo Mirror 5 4G technology.
Get to know 4G bands in the Oppo Mirror 5
Before talking about 4G bands, you should find out what is a frequency. Frequency is the repetition of an event, it is measured in radio communication by hertz (Hz).
Since radio waves are used for several reasons besides 4G (television broadcasting and Aeronautics as examples), it is essential to decide which frequencies must be used for what reason. Otherwise, radio waves will contradict, and it would be a mess.
Governments and ITU designated each range of frequencies (called bands) to certain uses.
What you should consider as a user of Oppo Mirror 5, is whether it supports the bands provided in your area by your local mobile operator or not. The Oppo Mirror 5 4G supported bands are :
LTE 800 / 850 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600 TD-LTE 2300 – International model; LTE 700 / 1700 / 2100 / 2600 – US model;.
