HSPA+ vs. LTE: 2G, 3G and 4G explained

All that confusion about mobile internet speeds and the upgrade to the 4G network has got us all excited and frustrated at the same time. I tried to explain it here before but I though this short video from HakTip should give us all a nice and simple explanation.

I have to admit I did not know EDGE’s theoretical speed could be faster than the old 3G. Though it’s been obvious from the start that Globe’s HSPA+ and Smart’s LTE aren’t really 4G, it’s just that 4G sounds better than 3.5G or 3.9G (so, okay they just rounded it up).

I’d like to stress what Jason said — the generation does not dictate the actual speed. This means 4G is no better than 3G since it’s the actual speed that’s what matters most, not the theoretical.

    At this point you may attempt to get closer physically by
    touch, before opportunity comes for the kiss. Go away from home, It doesn’t
    have to be a fabulous spot by the ocean, at least not every
    time. You are the parent, and you understand what exactly is right for them.

    Otherwise, love is meant to be enjoyed to the fullest.

    If the moderator of the group you may be playing with, refuses to like the gamertag, it happens to be completely
    in his power to ban we. This was known by the ancient Egyptians who, as said earlier, named love
    transcendence.

    Studies show about 40% of women never have an orgasm from just intercourse and most women enjoy far more.
    There’s enough pressure already on men and women to have
    ‘perfect’ sex, so why should the pornography industry promote this
    unrealistic ideal. This was known by the ancient Egyptians who, as said earlier, named love transcendence.
