Staff Repoter :: The most advanced digital service provider of the country, Robi Axiata Limited, has on-aired more than 6,000 4.5G and 4G+ BTS sites covering 500 thanas. Robi’s lead in the 4.5G market is further reinforced with the distinction of being the first mobile operator to have reached yet another coveted milestone of having 20 lakh 4.5G subscriber base in the industry.
Therefore, the customers of both, Robi and Airtel, brands can enjoy 4.5G and 4G+ service respectively in 90 per cent of the country’s thanas.
With this, Robi and Airtel brands are the part of the largest 4.5G network of the country with more than 20 lakh 4.5G subscribers at the moment. Achievement of this historic milestone is the reflection of Robi’s proactive and determined efforts to serve the customers with Robi’s 4.5G and Airtel’s 4G+ services.
While Robi’s landmark achievement will undoubtedly create much consternation among the customers across the country, it is worth remembering that the customers need to swap their existing SIMs with 4G SIM and have 4G enabled handsets in order to enjoy Robi and Airtel’s 4.5G and 4G+ service.
In order to facilitate its customers, both Robi and Airtel brands have been introducing a number of exciting 4G handset offers with the leading handset makers.
