iPhone users in Bangladesh may not get the experience of 4G/LTE mobile phone services immediately after the technology is launched.
Mobile phone network operators (MNOs) in the country has said the US tech giant is yet to do 'carrier setting update' in its devices for Bangladesh to offer 4G/LTE service.
Robi head of regulatory affairs Shahed Alam Friday told to state-owned BSS that it will take one month or more to bring the carrier setting update after informing Apple about getting 4G/LTE license.
Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) chairman Dr Shahjahan Mahmood said: "I came to know the issue recently but the MNOs did not bring it to our attention formally yet."
He said they are looking into the issue.
BTRC will hand over 4G/LTE license to four MNOs on February 19 next and the MNOs are set to offer the service to their customers from February 20.
But, over 1.5 million iPhone users along with many iPad users may not experience the taste of 4G/LTE service from the first day.
