    4G and Lte: What'S The Difference?

    4G is the fourth generation of mobile technology and offers speeds up to 150Mbps theoretically and up to 80Mbps in reality. LTE stands for Long Term Evolution and was a standard introduced when 4G speeds were initially unreachable that provided substantial improvements over 3G; it has since closed the gap with 4G speeds as networks have been updated. While 4G can be faster for downloads initially, the difference between 4G and LTE has decreased as LTE networks have advanced.

    4G AND LTE: WHAT’S THE

    DIFFERENCE?
    WHAT IS 4G?
    4G is the fourth generation of mobile phone technology. It
    follows on from the existing 3G (third generation) and 2G
    (second generation) mobile technology.
    Standard 4G is around 5 to 7 times faster than 3G.
    Theoretically, it offers speeds of up to 150Mbps.
    This means that in the real world, the maximum potential
    speeds are up to 80Mbps.
    In India, Jio is one of the first companies to offer truly 4G
    speeds.
    WHAT IS LTE?
    LTE stands for Long Term Evolution.
    It is not as much a technology as it is the path followed to
    achieve 4G speeds.
    When the ITU-R set the minimum speeds for 4G, they were a
    bit unreachable, despite the money tech manufacturers put
    into achieving them.
    So, the regulating body used labeled LTE as 4G as it was still
    a substantial improvement over the 3G technology.
    4G LTE was hence, displayed on the phone screens before
    true 4G was launched.
    4G V/S LTE
    In most cases, when it comes to download speeds, there is a
    substantial difference between the two – 4G being faster.
    As cellular carriers continue to update their LTE network, they have
    closed the gap between LTE and “real” 4G.
    To take full advantage of 4G, you will need a smartphone or a tablet
    with 4G support. Older mobile devices cannot provide 4G speeds
    because they aren’t built to handle it.
