It was expected. Since it was unveiled the first iPad, the tablet of Apple has been the basis of clues about what we could see on the iPhone to be presented later that year. In 2010, the presence of the one GHz A4 processor was the prelude to its appearance in the iPhone 4, as was the dual-core A5 chip in the iPad 2 in March 2011 that preceded the one seen in the iPhone 4. iPhone 4S. On this occasion, again the processor is one of the candidates to be reissued in the apple-phone from the tablet, although as we have already told you,some sources don't bet on it.
Instead, it has been proposed that the new iPhone would have a 4G data connection. We refer to the LTE standard, which in the latest model of the company's tablet has appeared accompanied by an entourage of controversy. But let's go in parts. The rumors that suggested that the new iPad would equip a profile that would make it compatible with this type of network also indicated that, if its presence was certified "" as it has been "" would be an almost unequivocal sign that Apple would also bet on it on the iPhone 5.
However, let's hope that in the case of the next touch phone in the house they do not fall into the same oversight that has been found in the new iPad. We refer to the controversy raised about the operation of the LTE standard in the tablet that will go on sale next Friday, March 16.
And it is that outside the borders of the United States, the new iPad could not participate in fourth generation networks based on the Long Term Evolution system . The reason would be in the spectrum of frequencies on which the tablet operates. According to this, the bands with which the iPad works to connect to LTE networks do not coincide with those that have been enabled in other regions beyond the borders of the United States, which means that the device cannot be used to navigate in 4G in Europe, for example.
Given this, despite the fact that the omens are fulfilled and the presence of LTE compatibility in the new iPad supposes a preview of this section in the benefits of the iPhone 5, it remains to be known if the Apple phone would correct what for now seems like an error in the international usability of the terminal that, in Spain, will be put on sale next Friday, March 23.
The LTE standard already works in our country, although at the moment it only works in tests. Movistar and Vodafone have been testing this type of network for several months with the help of business clients who have already accessed the service in cities such as Madrid, Barcelona, Malaga, Valencia or Bilbao. In theoretical terms, LTE technology makes it possible to develop download rates of up to 100 Mbps. Some of the tests carried out in points of good LTE coverage have yielded balances of between 50 and 60 Mbps. The idea is that most of the national territory is mapped to operate on this new system by 2015.
