DC-HSPA, which stands for dual-cell high speed packet access, could see typical mobile data download speeds doubling. The variant of DC-HSPA O2 is rolling out has a theoretical maximum of 42Mbps. That's double the topline speed currently supported by the more widespread HSPA+ flavour of 3G, albeit real world speeds are likely to be far more modest than that. A spokesman for O2 yesterday confirmed to me it has kicked off a rollout of DC-HSPA to "major UK cities". He was unable to specify exactly which cities are getting the upgrade first, but London, Birmingham and Manchester are likely candidates.
"We have begun rolling it out across the UK -- starting with major cities," he said, Apple included support for DC-HSPA in the UK version of the new iPad (the US version of the tablet packs LTE/4G), while Nokia has also classic case with glass screen protector for apple iphone 5/5s and se - black added DC-HSPA to the European variant of its Lumia 900 smart phone, To take advantage of the DC-HSPA tech inside either of these devices you need to be using a portion of a network that has support for DC-HSPA -- so any speed increases are dependent on where you are using the device and which network it's using..
Other UK operators are also waking up to DC-HSPA. A spokesman for Three said it is planning to start a nationwide rollout of the up to 42Mbps flavour of DC-HSPA this summer, while Everything Everywhere -- the company which owns Orange and T-Mobile -- said it is aiming to roll out the DC-HSPA variant in the fourth quarter of this year. Vodafone told me it started rolling DC-HSPA out about a year ago -- also to major UK cities -- and continues to roll it out. However the variant it has in its network is not so speedy -- with a theoretical maximum of 28.8Mbps.
A Vodafone spokesman said it doesn't currently have any plans to upgrade this to the 42Mbps flavour, classic case with glass screen protector for apple iphone 5/5s and se - black The future 4G boost known as LTE -- or long term evolution -- requires new spectrum, so can't simply be added by operators to their existing networks, This rollout is on hold until at least 2013, Are you a new iPad owner who uses O2's network in London?

The folks over at GSM Arena have got their hands on the new superphone and have given its battery the once-over. It managed to give over 10 hours of talk-time which easily beats the 8.5 hours achieved by its predecessor the Galaxy S2 and is streaks ahead of the 7 hours 40 minutes the iPhone 4S managed. Video playback was handled with aplomb too, with the S3 managing to keep going for just over 10 hours, while the 4S and S2 managed 9 hours 20 minutes and 8 hours respectively. I'm rather chuffed with these figures. The massive 4.8-inch Super AMOLED screen is sure to be a massive battery drain, as is the powerful quad-core processor, so I didn't have my hopes set on the S3 even beating the S2 in the battery stakes. It seems that Samsung has been able to cram a more potent power source inside it's smooth shell.
