The first 4G network in UK is to be launched next week. It is named EE (everything everywhere) and has formed by the merger of T-mobile and orange. This next generation network is claimed to be 5 times faster than the existing 3G. Performing a task on 4G will not use more data than 3G, but it will be quicker than the existing network. So, uploading, downloading, surfing, watching videos will take much lesser time in the next generation network.
If you want to speed up with the fourth generation data speed you need to sign up a contract with EE, the contracts are all two years long with an option to cut it to one year, for that one need to pay £10 extra in each plan.
EE has revealed its tariffs, which starts from minimum of £36 for 500 MB to maximum £56 for 8GB per month. All the plans are provided with unlimited calls and texts to the users. In case one goes over his/her data limit, one can get extra data of 50 MB on £3 or 500 MB on £6. The Sim-only deal will begin on 9th November and will start at £21 per month. This deal will be for 12 months and will include unrestricted calls and texts.
Smartphones like Samsung galaxy S3 and apple iPhone 5 already supports 4G LTE networks, so one can opt for these devices in order to get a faster web experience. Also, the upcoming devices are expected to arrive within the 4G network soon.
