Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() To add to your purchase decision, you are looking at 2300 MHz frequency handset. We are not sure if BSNL has 4G in India. |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() It seems that the iPhone5 launched in India is not really India specific, in relation with the 4G network bands. Go through this article. A person bought a new iPhone 5 in India after launch and it seems the 4G settings do not support what we have in India. Here's the reason: "The reason: Apple's new smartphone does not support the TDD or 'time division duplex' version of LTE technology that powers 4G networks in India, but runs on its older and more globally trusted variant, FDD or 'frequency duplex division', deployed by most 4G operators in the US and Europe. As a result, the iPhone 5 supports LTE or 'long term evolution' technology only on the 1.8 GHz band and not on the 2300 MHz band frequencies auctioned in India two years ago." Here's the article: http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/t...w/17276469.cms |

I had 3G phones in India even when there was no service, many do but that is not the best practice to take the plunge for latest and greatest. I thus stopped post that. I have recommended 5 only to those doing quite a lot of work (Productivity/Gaming) rest 4S is the one to get right now in areas LTE is not available. Also, for the ones that do not use 3G, they are the one who have never used mobile internet. Indian demographics and infrastructure is not conducive for personal 3G usage, by that I mean we do not commute in public transport over long distances and in peace to work on the go. We take strenuous travel routine that leave little to work on the go. Most people get to office to work on wifi or come back to community/shared or personal wifi to download major chunks. 3G at even lesser price has potential to become norm but LTE might not become a norm ever in India, we might have something new coming up by then. Personally, I have been thinking of getting rid of broadband post the 3G upgrade on Reliance in Gurgaon/Delhi, I consistently get 4mbps and with 5Gb unlimited I get to exhaust that data by month end. | |

Also, though Apple hasn't acknowledge the issues there has been a lot of research and it seems the issue is due to N category of wifi signal in the code that has different interpretation amongst the hardware community and thus Apple got caught unaware. 6.1 beta has been opened for developers and so we can expect the issues being resolved pretty soon. Though this has been a real setback for religious first upgrade suckers like me have to be wary. It comes with the territory I guess. | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Nokia HERE. Nokia has released their own Map app FREE for iOS devices on 19th Nov. I have been using it since yesterday and its pretty accurate and has lots of information associated with every search, besides the directions. One nice thing I found is every location is displayed along with its area PIN code. Quite handy i say. Link to the articles: http://www.techgig.com/tech-news/edi...type=autoLogin This is the screenshot of the app from iTunes Store: ![]() |

1. Wifi would disconnect as soon as I locked the phone 2. The internet access would be really slow and intermittent in nature. Last night I reset the network settings and guess what; 1. Wifi does not disconnect immediately. It stays connected for a while. In case an SMS comes in between, it reconnects to wifi and downloads the notifications. I am OK with this for now. 2. No issues with internet speed on the phone. Its nice and smooth. No more page no found errors. MaSh | |
