Idea 3G network is live in NCR

[x720]

So, I'm hearing that the Idea 3G network is live in NCR?

How do I check?

Set phone to WCDMA only. Perform manual network search. Post screenshot here. Either there should be two listings of Idea or one Idea and one Vodafone.

I find no band in lte. Moto Turbo has no compatible bands for India? I would expect Airtel or Jio to appear at least?

The Turbo doesn't have the 2300Mhz they operare on. So, either won't show.

Awesome! So the network is live indeed 😀

 

[Sushubh]

So no 4G for me? :-(

 

[x720]

Not for now.

 

[Sushubh]

But any chance in future based on confirmed information?

 

[x720]

Yes, ofcourse. 1800MHz 4G should be next in line for deployment. The Turbo supports that. Regarding other bands, things should become clear after the current auction.

chalo good. option to get 4g in future would be decent. very decent 😀

 

[Pankaj Singhal]

Nice. I had heard they would be deploying 4g on this, but 3g should also be OK, it will consume less battery.
