Voice and Data at the same time?

[cain04]

Yeah, it does. Just REALLY want to make sure. But I'll take your word for it. Sounds like you've done your due diligence with this. I would call Rogers myself, but often I find people have no idea what I'm talking about.

Here's one of the articles that caused my concern: http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=3&ved=0CDsQFjAC&url=http%3A%2F%2Fnews.cnet.com%2F8301-13...


Many thanks for your help.

You are welcome :).

If you read the atricle you will see

" AT&T customers have the ability to talk and surf simultaneously on the iPhone 5," the company said."

Rogers & AT&T are the same. The both run on the same networks & such. So there should not be a worry about it 🙂

If you call & ask reps, they wont know what to say & they might even give you the wrong answer.

I can confirm, it does work.
I donut all the time, wife calls, go back to the main screen to look something up for her, etc.

One last question regarding this. Do you know I both work simultaneously on Telus?

[Meowmix]

That i can not say because i have never been with Telus nor did i ever use a iPhone with Telus before. Sorry:(

My only concern is that yes, currently multitasking on calls / data works with 3G. But the issue that is in question here is how LTE affects simultaneous voice and data. So I'm not 100% sold on the fact that you will be able to do both if you're using LTE, but I'd be happy to be proven wrong. 🙂

On my other post on the first page i explained how when you are trying to make a phone call while you are on LTE, LTE will drop & it will use 3G / 4G (HSPA+). This is a known fact because every LTE device Rogers has does this. Even it happens on Bell as well.

So while you are on the phone & going on the internet, you will have speeds from 3G & 4G ( HSPA+)

I understand the concern though. What Meowmix is saying makes sense but all of these articles seem t suggest that the antenna designs seem lacking in some way and don't permit this to work the way it has.

I'm going to trust Meowmix on this one, though.
