In another first for Maxis, owners of Apple devices (at least the latest ones) will get to experience super-fast mobile connectivity now.
In short,
I suppose this is one of the key areas the telecommunications service provider is campaigning on, which is good.
In February 2013, Maxis launched two 4G LTE smartphones - the Nokia Lumia 920 and HTC One XL, - the first two smartphones to be activated on Maxis' 4G LTE network
Maxis activates 4G LTE for Apple devices
MAXIS Berhad has announced that customers using the iPhone 5, iPad mini and iPad 4 can now enjoy the speed of its 4G LTE (Fourth Generation Long-Term Evolution) network.
In 2009, Maxis was the first to introduce the iPhone to Malaysia, said its joint chief operating officer (COO) Suren J. Amarasekera. It is now announcing that customers using the Apple iPhone 5, fourth generation iPad with Retina display and iPad mini Wi-Fi + Cellular model can use its 4G LTE network.
With 4G LTE, customers using iPhone 5, iPad mini and iPad 4 can experience download speeds five to 10 times faster than 3G, enabling them to upload pictures and video 10 times faster, Maxis claimed. Following the 4G LTE activation for these Apple devices, customers on Maxis iValue plans as well as data plans of 1G and above will receive an SMS requesting them to update the settings on their devices.
Once they do so, they will automatically be able to experience 4G LTE speeds in Maxis 4G LTE coverage areas. In areas where 4G LTE services are not available, the device will automatically and seamlessly fall back onto Maxis’ 3G network.
Areas covered by Maxis 4G LTE service:
TheGreenMechanics: Let's hope the cost of data subscription will become cheaper, as increase of speed means more traffic in data exchange which translates to more revenue for the competing telco companies.

In short,
- Customers using the iPhone 5, iPad mini and iPad 4 (iPad with retina display), can now enjoy 4G LTE speeds in selected areas
- By the third quarter of 2013 more areas in Klang Valley, Penang and Johor Baru will be covered
Are you currently using one of these?
