What is 3G+ and what is the data transmission speed in 3G+?

The 3G+ lifecell network is deployed on the most modern equipment and the most promising frequencies in Ukraine. 3G+ allows to achieve high speed Internet, up to 63.3 Mbps, in the presence of:

·  an appropriate end equipment (supporting 3C-HSDPA/TripleCarrierHSDPA technology);

·  a network setup and a sustainable mobile network signal;

·  the absence of physical barriers to radio signal propagation.

What is needed to start using 3G?

Ensure that your device (phone, smartphone or tablet) supports 3G and, if necessary, configure it by reference.

Please note!

There is no need to change the SIM card to use 3G+.

When the phone finds a 3G-network, the 3G icon or H/H+ icons will be displayed on the screen, less often HSDPA/HSPA/HSPA+. Depending on the manufacturer and the phone model.

The transition between GSM and 3G-network will be carried out automatically without disconnecting.

In some cases, in phones with two SIM cards (Dual-SIM devices) 3G Internet can be supported only by one of two slots. For correct 3G+ operation, it is recommended to install a lifecell SIM card into the first slot.

Will the battery run down faster when using 3G?

It depends on:

·  the device manufacturer.

·  the device characteristics (find out how long the device can operate in a 3G-network according to the manual to your device)

·  Also, certain applications can run in the background, consuming traffic and battery life. This can be checked and changed in their settings.

To save the battery power, you can enable the power saving mode in the phone settings.

How can you determine that the phone is currently connected to a 3G-network?

In most smartphone models, when they find the 3G-network, a 3G or H icon appears next to the signal strength indicator (depending on the manufacturer and the phone model). This means that your phone is now connected to the 3G-network. If you are in the area where there is no 3G coverage, calls and GPRS/EDGE Internet will be available for you, provided that your smartphone is configured for simultaneous GSM/3G operating mode.

What can affect the data transmission speed in 3G+?

The average speed for the user may be lower than the maximum possible and depend on:

·  a device and its technical characteristics

·  a network workload, i.e. the number of subscribers who simultaneously use 3G+ in the same place

·  a load on the resource being accessed

·  a battery charge level

·  additional applications (applications installed on the phone automatically connect to the Internet)

·  the absence of physical barriers to radio signal propagation.

There are many specially developed applications for measuring the speed of the Internet. To do this, you can download one of the applications hosted in the Play Market or the App Store. To determine a more accurate speed, you should perform measurements several times, since the rate indicator depends on the connection conditions at a particular point in time.
