Supporting additional bands
Posted: Tue Feb 13, 2018 9:23 am
Hi Admin,
I'm interested to know what it takes to support additional LTE/WCDMA bands (different/more RF Antennas/Transceivers?), and why manufacturers such as yourselves do not support more bands (cost? board space for antennas? testing/certification? licensing?)
Having more bands means a bigger market (Americas, etc) and you can sell more, and since I know you can do it (BV8000Pro uses same SoC as BV9000Pro but support many more bands), I'm curious why you keep releasing phones with limited bands.
I'm a frequent traveller, so I need a phone with as many bands as possible. (or at least WCDMA Band 1,2,4,5,8)
Thanks for any insight!
