    • They are best in Voice Quality

      2nd Where thwy Provide 3G is my bet Best from all Crossing 8MB+ every time

      Where All Network are sucked at 2 to 4MB only

      and Dont forget its 3G not 4G

  • with every day increase in the number of 4g users, the quality is steeply going down the hill. Zong Mbb has started to suck when it comes to 4g speed and there 3g is a huge disappointment ( would say ufone has better 3g).
    i am using jazz 4g as well on my calling sim (prev warid), though their speed is actually quite good and consistent in my area but in other parts of Karachi call as well as 4g indoor reception sucks.

  • Ufone really need to pay attention to expand their 3G coverage footprints. Its already 2018, 5 years since 3G/4G auction and they are yet to upgrade 50% of their total cell sites to 3G.
