So MTN Uganda has some good reasons to upgrade their mobile data network from 3G to 4G LTE which is the fastest mobile data standard right now. The mobile network boasts of having 75 4G LTE sites across the country making it the network with the widest 4G LTE network coverage among its competitors. But having the widest and fastest 4G LTE network as we proved in this video is completely useless if there aren’t 4G devices to suck the juice out of the network. MTN has thought about that too.
