Airtel 4G LTE – How to Enjoy – Tips and Guide
Internet consumers mostly look for two things in a network: speed and coverage. The question of speed becomes paramount as internet activities increase. Undoubtedly, this explains the increased demand for Airtel 4G LTE service.
In the days of small-sized and low-quality videos and documents, one can easily make do with a 2G or Edge service but the need for 3G soon surfaced with a higher demand on speed. Nowadays, the demand has shifted from 3G to 4G LTE due to the demand for greater quality files.
The debut of 4G LTE in Nigeria came with NTEL, more so, NTEL has been paraded for so long as the king of 4G services in Nigeria but it has hardly held that position hitherto. Top notch networks like Airtel have taken the flagship by offering over the top 4G services.
