[sparkie1984]

hi guys, im not a mobile network engineer or anything, so just a wondering question.....

i have a nokia work phone that either shows standard bars, a 3g symbol or a h symbol.

how comes the iphone only goes up to 3g????? does the iphone not support the h?

sorry if its a stupid question..... just wondered 🙂

The iPhone doesn't differentiate between HSDPA and (plain) UTMS. But the 3GS does support it.

As far as I know it doesn't have one. It has a • for GPRS E for Edge and 3G for UTMS and HSDPA.
