21 Aug Two New 4GX Phones from Samsung
Samsung have announced two new phones in their line up.
The Galaxy S6 Edge+ and the Galaxy Note 5 will be available through Telstra in September. Both offer 4GX on Telstra’s network where available, with up to twice the speed of 4G. Samsung has also included 100GB of cloud storage through One Drive free for 24months.
What is 4GX?
When analogue television was switched off in Australia, the spectrum it was running on – 700MHz – became available. 4GX took over this spectrum.
Better in the bush – 4GX uses superior 700MHz spectrum that can go further than existing 4G frequencies, creating extra 4G coverage in rural and regional areas.
More for metro – 4GX offers extra 4G in-building coverage and faster 4G in-building speeds compared to our regular 4G, bringing speedy web access when you use a compatible device in a 4GX area.
