Iphone 5s on O2 4G

Anonymous — Tue, 10 Sep 2013 09:59:47 GMT

hello everyone

well in a couple of hours apple will announce the new iphone 5s or whatever they choose to call it. i just have one question, we know that 02's 4G network does not support the Iphone 5, but will the 5s work on it? or will the 5s spectrum be the same as the 5.

many thanks

Gets crystal ball out all will be revealed at 18:00 onwards.

If the rumors are correct it will be available in all 4g bands in use around the world.

Just tune in to the keynote (if available from apple) or watc the many tech sites that will cover it.

I'm sure the 5s/6 will support 02's 4G frequency band.

As Adam says watch the keynote tonight.

I expect that the 5S (or whatever it will be called) will cover all the 4G frequency bands.

But all will be revealed tonight

Or yeah, this site is providing a live blog on the Keynote, starts at 6PM UK time.

But Three has not got their 4G LTE network up yet. That's why they are not listed.

So after lauching 5s without 4g but selling 4g packages and contracts ( very dodgy) after 2 years of suffering call drop outs and call fails every 1-2 minutes on my iphone 4 the 4g on my shiny new 5s finally gets activated today !!

Fantastic news at last

Hi MATRIX5000

What is the Service Status saying for your postcode ?

If you feel the masts are not giving a correct reading then speak to o2 to challenge the reading.

If you feel the phone may be at fault then seek a diagnostic via the manufacturer.

4G is data only for the moment (on all UK networks), when you make/receive a call it reverts to 3G/2G.
