The New iPad Will Not Support European LTE Networks




The new iPad recently announced by Apple seems to be mostly targeting the North American market. Although the slate is advertised as a 4G LTE device, the feature is only available in some regions.

Obviously, this is not entirely Apple’s fault, as both international and AT&T variants have been confirmed to support 700MHz and 2100MHz LTE bands, which are fully compatible with the US-based carrier’s network.

According to Slashgear, even though LTE network is almost inexistent in Europe, as soon as the new technology is deployed, it will only support devices that work on 800MHz, 1800MHz and 2600MHz bands.

This basically makes the new iPad useless in Europe when it comes to 4G LTE data speeds. European customers who decide to purchase this model and plan to use it in their region will be limited to DC-HSDPA data speeds.
