Yes it does, while it is fast, LTE also drain the battery life faster smile.gif and not to forget the quota.

How does lte use up quota faster? If file is 10mb whether on 3g or lte, it still downloads as 10mb mah. And lte has actually improved battery life on ip5.

but its not really stable or good... was with a fren using iphone. we tested with speedtest.net apps on the iphone. maxis lte connection... speed was less than 1mbps. biggrin.gif

.

i used my 3g u mobile... almost clocked 2mbps. biggrin.gif

but i'm sure it will stabilise over time. so yes, i agree with the argument that lte can wait another 1-2 years... i'm in no hurry to get an lte phone for now.

I am constantly getting more than 10mbps on maxis lte and its very stable

hmmm... so u r sayng because the video loads up faster, u end up haveing more time to load and watch more videos, that's y it is draining your quota faster?

when user download 1GB movie, then it's 1GB quota utilised, regardless of using 2G, 3G or LTE.

then to be fair, it's not the "fault" that LTE drains your quota faster. it's the user that's using more frequent of the data by utilising the faster LTE speed. it's is purely the user's choice to download more content or not.

The speed of lte is the reason your quota is utilised.usually you need few minute to dload on youtube while 4g you will get the file much faster the file size is still the same.the diff is you tendence to get more info or file using the lte cause your quota to fully utilised.correct me if i'm wrong

yes , I'm agree

BUY LTE phones if you are often in their areas of coverage. Even 3g/h+ is unsatisfactory in many parts of the country
is user choice
those who call user stupid for not buying LTE phones now should look themselves in the mirror n say the word
it is plain rude n unnecessary to say such as
not everyone needs LTE. Dont impose your needs on others
there are even some users who do not even subscribe to any data plan n used only wifi

For those who live in klang valley I suggest wait for LTE instead because I believe the coverage will be expanding to cover kl and selangor area soon. I also getting LTE in cheras area now.

I still don't understand on the argument of LTE as almost 80 percent of my mobile data is connected through wifi at home and office.

It's a carrot, and the promise of neverending download ecstasy, so people are chasing it. See what happened to fruitco LTE devices ... people complained it made them use up their quota too quickly.

You are complete opposite of me. 80% of my Internet usage on 3g/h as the places I frequent to hardly has free wifi. So different user different circumstances of usage
And rom download is usually direct to my phone to utilize the faster download speeds ( 3-5 times) vs my miserable home wifi

The software in the S4 though has increased I do agree with some of the reviewers some are just gimmicky/does not perform 100% well. These are my findings so far :

AIR VIEW : Hopeless in webpage magnifier - unable to get it to work. OK but sometimes slow in Information preview. Faster just to tap on it. Probably good for those with dirty fingers !!! Progree preview in video playing is terrible - it really needs effort to get it working well. Easier to tap n slide across the video window

SMARTSCREEN : works well - smart stay, smart rotation, smart pause sometimes only, easier to press pause button . Smart Scroll - hopeless

Taking screenshot by swiping the screen is the WORST ( unable to get it done successfully with one take - half the time need up to 2-3 times only ). The S3, Note, Note 2  - always get it done in ONE time only

MOTION: Working well - Direct Call, Smart Alert - cannot get it to work even

Tilt : Zoom and Pan : Unable to get it working
TurnOver : mute/Pause : Unable to get it to work sometimes

Still exploring and feedback later other software features

so uncle benny do u think it's worth the extra penny for an average s3 user to upgrade? why?

so u are saying:
1. LTE download your 10GB file faster, get the job done within 2 days. and u are saying "bad LTE use up my quote in 2 days"
2. 56kbps download 10GB file slower, get the job done after 2 weeks. and u r saying "good 56kbps cos it only use up my quota after 2 weeks"
