3G to 4G or 0G
What is the 3G Sunset?
The 3G sunset signifies the phase-out of 3G technology in a given region, making way for other connectivity alternatives like 0G and 4G. Since its inception in 2001, 3G has been the predominant technology for wireless mobile telecommunications. However, as mobile network operators push for greater capabilities, they have committed to phasing out 3G connectivity.
