iPhone users start enjoying 4G in Bangladesh

Good news for iPhone users in Bangladesh!

Nearly three months after the launch of fourth-generation (4G) mobile internet, the iPhone users have started to enjoy the speedy service as the country code on the Apple handsets is unlocked.

Users can know by dialing *121*3232# (Grameenphone), *123*44# (Robi) and 12151 (Banglalink) whether their SIM card is 4G.

Grameenphone users can set 4G in an iPhone set by going to Settings>Mobile data>Mobile Data Options>Voice & Data> 4G, said GP in a Facebook post recently.

iPhone X, iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone 6,iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone SE, iPhone 5s are the computable device models for the latest iOS upgrade, GP said on its website.

Around 15 lakh iPhone users could not avail 4G services since top mobile operators found that Bangladesh country code '+880' had been blocked for 4G in all apple handsets.
