In addition to 4G coverage there has been a fast growth in the customer numbers too: since 4G mobile service was launched in January 2012, the number of Telekom's 4G network users has increased to more than 740 thousand. 4G data traffic has shown a permanent and steady increase since its launch and from July 2015 it has been exceeding the data traffic of the 3G broadband network, in operation for 10 years now. Contributing to all this is the fact that customers can select from Telekom's offering of 70 types of 4G enabled smart devices. The 4G enabled devices detect all 4G frequencies so that customers can fully exploit the advantages and service quality offered by 4G coverage. The best 4G experience may be completed by the selection of an appropriate tariff package along with a 4G enabled device over Telekom's 4G network.
4G/LTE technology was tested in Hungary first by Telekom in 2009. Following a 3 months' network testing with the involvement of users, Telekom's commercial 4G mobile service was introduced to market also as first in Hungary from January 1, 2012.
