The speed! 4g is extremely fast especially when downloading stuff.

They are in the process of rolling out another 150 to give more coverage, in Phnom Penh only at the moment.

Metfone has rolled out 4g? Last time I heard they hadn't yet.

As I said they have some sites that are 4G however maybe they are still testing and it hasn't gone live yet.

I thought I saw an advertisement somewhere about it. I will try and find it.

Ok, I saw ads around town as well. I asked them about it because I was in there singing up for fiber. It will be interesting to have a 4g competitor in town.

There's been one (although a very new player starting pretty much from scratch) for a few months already.

Oh yeah, I've driven by this place before. What the heck is volte? I know LTE. I wonder if this is just a fancy way to say it?

Voice doesn't occur over 4g. You would probably notice that 3g disappears too.

Volte is voice over LTE or 4G. The only problem with seatell is I think they use CDMA technology. Meaning no SIM card and you need to purchase the phone from them.

Well, Metfone finally finished their work and I have a pretty fast connection. So far it's been very steady d consistently fast. Here is a screenshot of my speed test. I have the 12mb package for 40/month. I did the test via HK to give u a real world speed test.
