Zong is all set to commercially launch its 3G services tomorrow, we can confirm you.
Unlike other operators, Zong decided to go for a commercial launch without a massive free-trial for users. Though it claims to have offered a limited free-trial in Lahore but we didn’t receive any independent confirmations for that.
Some 351 Zong customers were selected for the 3G trial from Zong in Lahore. It is told that their feedback was recorded and considered for the commercial launch.
As per information we have received now, Zong is planning to arrange a launch ceremony at its headquarters tomorrow evening. Ceremony will mark the commercial launch of its 3G network in the country.
Zong will start offering 3G services in Lahore and Karachi from second day of the launch, that is by coming Friday. Islamabad is likely to get 3G services from Zong with-in a week, a source has told. Naturally more cities are likely to be added with time.
Officials of Zong are pretty excited about the launch and said that user experience on their 3G network will beat competition. Reportedly Zong is deploying HSPA+ for 3G service, which is capable of offering 42Mbps theoretical speeds for end users.
Zongers are calling their 3G as Super 3G for the same reasons, but we are not going to get influenced by statements only, especially when their 3G launch is just a day away.
Since they didn’t do the trials, we aren’t sure about the Zong’s quality of service standards yet, but as I said above, things are going to get revealed to the world in a day at most.
Few readers have already send us the screenshots of Zong’s 3G, which means that service has been delivered and an official launch is what they are waiting for.
Check below a screen shared by Muhammad Zohair Chohan, from Lahore:
Currently Ufone and Telenor have launched their 3G services. With the launch of Zong’s 3G services, Mobilink will become the only operator to have not commercially launched the product.
Mobile phone users are anxiously waiting for Zong’s 3G plans. Considering its previous record, It is largely anticipated Zong will offer low-cost 3G plans. So let’s wait till tomorrow evening and we will see.
Lets see what 3G packages they offer.
Holy cow !! I’m soo looking forward to use Zong 3G coz cant wait to decide if i’m going to stick to Zong coz of 3G or im gonna portin towards some other operator !!
Lets hope they’ll offer some cheap 3g packages and hopefully they’ll not screw this up !!
sorry but i cant stop my laugh as i read Holy cow :D
Hahah yar its better to use these words rather using swearing words !!
can offend hindus
Holy cow
I am on verge to leaving them after using their postpaid service for last 4 years. Was talking to a friend working in Zong the other day and he told me that Zong has total management failure as far as 3G/4G is concerned. Don’t have any hopes but lets see.

Yup you’re right, i just recently heard that zong was not happy with its top management and they did fired some high post officors and took charge of 3G launching !! Same goes with other services !! Lets see what they’ve to offer
This is true. CEO of China Mobile itself in charge for upgrading and launching. The company is updating 50 sites per week on latest equipment which other don’t have. That is also the main reason that most of the users getting down an up links way better then other 3 operators …
You will not be disappointed with packages as well as speed
As Predicted from their Cheapest GPRS Packages ,It is Expected that they will Do Better then Other Pathetic Telcos 3G Packages
wait and see the coverage area first
Lol @351 users feedback.. Fingers crossed. I believe tariff will be good but I doubt on their 3g coverage and services let’s see
Hope for the best good luck zong

Nice to hear that .. But can you confirm there coverage area too ? hopefully the packages will be good but I really want to see there coverage area. :)

Thanks for Correction buddy!
What buddy? bary logo sa aisy baat karty hai?
hahahahaha lol…. “Barey Log”

The most important thing is the coverage area. 3G coverage for Ufone and Telenor has been practically useless to be honest as it’s a very limited area.
true Dat !
yes – useless overage. But surprisingly i am in southern lahore and Zong 3g network is available here when i scan (no other 3g network available)
Aamir bhai Zong 3G connect ho gya hai apki is post ky baad mene connect kiya and yeh speed test zong 3G ka #Lahore #Chungi Amar Sidhu
Speed test zong 3G
Zong Speed is much better than other 3G
That’s why! Zong did not give trial.
i am using Zong free 3g trail from last month in lahore
Are you using it free of cost?
P.S. zong has not offered 3G packages yet.
Already using Zong 3g in few areas of Islamabad from 1st June.
Here is the random speed test result..

Johar Town,Lahore
Everybody get ready to port to Zong!:D
I’d also opted for their free 3G trial in Lahore but nothing was served.
The company which can not provide Mirco and Nano SIM how it can provide Quality 3/4G services. Its a big joke. Stupid QoS by Zong.
blade hai aap k ghar main?
Brother mai nai kal apni sim 1 nano and 1 micro pay switch kraie hai. For your info the new sim jacket from Zong is for multi phones .. I mean the normal size sim can b converted to micro in less then one sec dear. Check your nearest service centre ..

This is shit solution to cut sim. Warid is offer all three types of SIM. Cheap company always provide cheap solution
Zong is offering all the three sizes from Customer Service Centers. I am using iPhone 5s and have the ZonG Nano Sim in it. Another phone with ZonG’s official micro sim too. Please visit yourself and get your sim cards replaced in no time.
No, I had to get it cut from a mobile shop. The lady in their franchise told me they don’t offer microsims.
Get it from the ZonG service center dear. Which area you live in?
I call there helpline and they told me that Zong do not have other than standard SIM card
Zong has the worst CSR. Just take some time out and visit the service center yourself. Make sure your sim should be registered on your own name. If yes, you will get your desired sim in a min. They have all three standards available. Standard, Micro and Nano.
aala darjey ki bekaar baat ki hai apne
SIM kati hue ho ya kaat ke di jae, dono sorto me PHONE me lag jaegi tension mati len :p
seriously ?
Couldn’t agree more. Btw, the evening has passed by, haven’t seen any launch news just as yet :)
hahahah true , i think they’re getting lazier :)
I hope they provide 3g coverage in my city
I hope they provide 3g coverage in my city

HAHAHAH Nice One!
Hey! Admin, could you confirm me that when 3G is going to be started in hyderabad. Please. I’ve been waiting.. I have asked to their help line and they replied ,when it would be started we would confirm you but they didn’t tell any definite date, month.,year.
within 6 months after the launch, i hope so but confirmed date is not possible from anyone.
When 3G will start in Hyderabad and which will be the first mobile operator to start it?

Getting H+ signals since 6pm in Lahore. Attaching 2 screenshots

No 3G coverage in Multan yet!
speed test Zong 3G Near Chungi Amar Sidhu Lahore
with such a low signal strength , this much speed in awesome.
zong 3G test karny mein mere Rs.200 ktm ho gye within 3min
bcoz it was free for registered customers
Sirf test krna tha na mery dost… :)
Where is MOBILINK, can any one answer in detail!
Shhhhhh… they are sleeping. :)
Let them sleep, one doesnt get many chances to download stuff at 800 to 1000 kbps.
Mobilink is waiting , because they want to check all companies’ services and packages
Almost 12 noon, propakistani? No zong 3g launch
It is reported in the post above that , they will have a ceremony today evening and commercial launch on Friday
I have all my suspicions, Chinese monkeys won’t be able to do it in few weeks let alone tonight. It will be a miracle if they do it today or tomorrow. They are at total loss
they are not at total lost, if they give better packages there coverage is huge, ill be porting out from ufone and their sucky 3g rates.
I have used Zong postpaid for 4 years and believe me, you really don’t want to come here. Their service standard is getting crappier by the day. I hardly remember using their gprs ever, reason being, utter crap speed. At most it would run at 20 kbps, hilarious.
Network up-gradation may ye issue ho jaty hain :)
Mobilink continued giving speeds of 8 to 10 Mbps, zong 3g is not special unless they provide well above that.
Also the fact mobilink trial has many many users already.
Zong 3G not launched yet its almost 12 pm ???
It is reported in the post above that , they will have a ceremony today evening and commercial launch on Friday , Unless it’s already friday for you , no need to worry :)
K thanks
Neither 3g launch news nor tariff is avialable at their website
Wait for the evening..

No, i activated 10Rs daily unlimited Gprs package and downloaded almost 3GB while testing 3G. That package is truly unlimited no caps!
ahan means you are using 2G package on 3G right ?
Exactly, though they will fix it as soon as they launch 3G commercially
Ahan thanks for info Bro :)
Try to make a hotspot on your phone and then connect it to the laptop :) then test if you can download torrents :)
Already tried . Blocked .while working fine with PTCL DSL.
Use a proxy (Hotspot Shield) on your laptop and see if that works :)
is there any activation code??
just tried it.following is the result in garden town area
Press conference at 4 pm…
Ohh presser at 4 o clock !! That means its useless to expect anything before 6pm !! Hmm
Zong is going to launch cheaper package then Telenor.
Hope so
Dial *6464# to get package details,
Monthly 4GB in 650
2GB in 350
1GB in 250
500mb in 150
Are these for 3G?
Yes
Whatever the packages will be…Ufone’s offering now looks 10 year old now :D. It’s coverage in Lahore totally useless.

HELP !!! @aamir atta :
I have a phone having 3g bands : 850/2100mhz ? Please tell me weather its 3g will work in Pakistani networks ? cuz i tried to use 3g on ufone network but it didn’t work when ever i switch to “WCDMA” (where 3g signals available) … it just not connect to network ?
no it will not work. it only works on 900/2100 mhz
Confirmed?
Wrong, it will work just fine.
Your phone model?
It will work if in 3g area and 3g activated.
THL W200
yes it will work just fine, you better be in a 3g zone and your sim should be activated for 3g.
not all sims are pre activated, you have to call helpline for that.
Someone confirm zong speed in gulshan karachi, without package subscription.
My sms service is blocked by pta so cant subscribe.
Im getting 1 mb speed only ,same phone on mobilink gives 8mb.
thats mine zong 3g speed test
