First signs of 3G's time coming to an end...
Yeaheeee!!!!”
Oh no!!!!
And anyway, VoLTE hasn't been released on all sites yet, so what's going to take the calls, at a half decent quality?
Furthermore, getting VoLTE outside of specific carrier locked devices and iPhones is quite difficult at the moment, anyway....
Maybe in a few years time, 2G/4G will be fine, due to VoLTE, device support, and the fact that the only devices ever needing 2G will be either non-Volte devices (which will be very few) or non 4G devices (again, very few). But not now... people expect both 3G and 4G to be available!
Or it might be that Three either haven't been offered said mast, or haven't been bothered to invest in it. If it's the former... then EE is being greedy and I can see why Three opened that lawsuit a few days ago. If it's the latter, then Three need to invest more!
Also, I know that 3G gets installed either before or after the installation of 4G, but do both parties have to be interested in 3G, for a mast to get 3G, or does just one networks' interest mean that both networks get 3G? Please help me with this bit...
