True 4G Coverage - post your locations

Whats that about???

That means that iPhones and some other devices targeted for EU/Asia won't be able to use TrueMove H 4G that runs on 2100Mhz (Band 1).

But most Samsung devices take most of the bands, iPhones are right now more regional, haven't researched iPhone 6 though, but it's true for 5s atleast.

Having 4G/LTE on 800 / 850 / 900 would be the best for coverage.

On those frequencies 4G goes further, many times further than 2G and even with a bad connection you get about 5Mbits on 4G.

I have had a iPhone 5, 5s and 6 and they all work wonderfully on True 4g

As for lower frequency - that's why True 3G 850 MHz will be better than AIS 3g 2100 MHz as the latter has poor building penetration and 1/3 of the reach per cell

But ais got much more towers...

The towers counting game is back. What's important , towers or coverage ? Let's look at announcements

AIS 22,000 towers. Will need about 2x that to cover True 3G coverage on 850

Besides the point - AIS does not have 4g

Completely irellevant, user experience counts.

TrueMove H has never delivered anything but excellent performance everywhere I've been.

Their priceplans are expensive and their callcenters and representatives are morons and unhelpful,

but their network is clearly excellent.

Really! Are you sure! I thought that the infrastructure was the operating companies it was just the license from CAT. Whereas the infrastructure for True 3h was originally CAT's until true did the bizarre infrastructure fund thing!

True h 3G floating market Pattaya

True h 3G floating market Pattaya

What phone?

different phones have different maximum download speeds!

can make a huge difference on speed test.

Also turning off apps like Line etc.

AIS is taken at 8am on a full signal

True at 3pm at a place where signal is low ( from your screen shot )

A little bias maybe ?

22,000 sites x 3 sectors = 66,000 sectors

= 0.0015% sample

Very statistically valid

Can you transfer number from ais to true?

Can you transfer number from ais to true?

Yep. It called MNP

Should i go to true or ais store
