LTE(TM) coverage for Xperia(TM) smartphones
LTE networks are getting more and more common, allowing you to browse the web instantly, stream content, or download movies at high-speed. You’ll find LTE support in a number of Xperia(TM) smartphones, all the way from the just announced Xperia(TM) Z to the Xperia(TM) ion. Each device has a particular range of LTE bands, with corresponding regions that support the service. Read on to get the full list of LTE-enabled smartphones, supported bands, and the available countries where you can use LTE.
Among the impressive specs you’ll find for the
– quad-core CPU, 5’ 1080p HD display, and HDR video camera – don’t forget that you’ll also find support for LTE. It’s the latest Sony superphone with LTE capability, and joins an already extensive list of Xperia(TM) LTE-capable smartphones.
LTE stands for , and is a standard for wireless data communications technology and an evolution of the GSM/UMTS standards. This technology increases the capacity and speed of wireless data networks using
(digital signal processing) techniques and modulations that already provides peak rates of 100 Mbit/s downlink and
50 Mbit/s uplink and
provisions permitting a transfer latency of
10-15 ms and is evolving to beyond 300 Mbps. With LTE, the ability to manage fast-moving mobiles is supported, as well as multi-cast and broadcast streams. LTE supports scalable carrier bandwidths, from 1.4 MHz to 20 MHz and supports both
LTE frequency bands
The LTE standard can be used with many different frequency bands. The deployment is increasing rapidly among the world. As of today 700, 850, , 1900 and
MHz bands are used in North America. South America uses 700,
and 2600 MHz. 800, 900,
MHz bands are used in Europe.
You’ll find the 850, ,
and 2600 MHz bands used in Asia. And Australia uses 1800 MHz. As a result, phones from one country may not work in other countries. Since the LTE standard is fairly new to the operators there are very few roaming agreements between different countries and operators when it comes to LTE roaming (HSPA roaming already exists). In the future when roaming agreements are in place users will need a multi-band capable phone for roaming internationally. That will be less of an issue if you’re using an Xperia(TM) smartphone, as they are already multi-band capable (with the exception of Xperia(TM) SX) and support at least two bands or more. The table further down lists the LTE bands supported by Xperia(TM) smartphones.
The feature image used for this article indicates current countries in green where there is an existing (commercial) LTE network that Xperia(TM) smartphones can connect to. Please note that many more regions will have LTE in the near future. Furthermore, the availability of LTE networks is operator-dependent and may vary from area to area within a country.

We recommend the eMMC module as it has much higher performance than standard MicroSD cards.* ARM 64bit is a very new platform and some system specific Linux softwares are not working stably at this moment. && So there might be the compatibility issues frequently and we may need longer time to fix the issues.OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES(Click the image to the product page)
STORY ABOUT THE ODROID-C2Here is the comparisons to give you better understanding of ODROID-C2.ODROID-C2 vs ODROID-C1 vs Raspberry Pi2Both are Linux-friendly ARM(R)&single-board computers for various applications and purposes.&Hardware ComparisonThe ODROID-C2 has many advantages over the Raspberry Pi2. The processor is an S905 2GHz Quad-core from Amlogic with 2GByte DDR3 RAM, Gigabit-Ethernet and IR-receiver. The size of this computer is still only 85 x 56 mm with a weight of 40g, and offers silent operation, 2~5W average power usage, and instant portability, since it fits in a shirt pocket. One powerful feature of the ODROID-C2 is an SD 3.01 standard compatible UHS-1 MicroSD card, as well as the faster eMMC module, can be ordered with the ODROID-C2, and arrives with the popular Ubuntu operating system already installed. Insert the MicroSD card into the slot, connect a monitor, a keyboard, a mouse, Ethernet and power cable, and that’s all you need to do to use the ODROID-C2! Browse the web, play games, run office programs, edit photos, develop software, and watch videos right away.The ODROID-C2 also has a 40+7pin GPIO header to make a physical interface between the board and the outside world. The 40+7pin interface headers include PWM, I2C, I2S, UART, ADC and GPIO function. The IR receiver and ADC features on the ODROID-C2 offer many options for building great DIY projects.

CPU and RAM performance comparisonWe ran several different benchmarks to measure the computing power on the ODROID-C2. The same tests were performed on the Raspberry Pi 2, ODROID-C1, ODROID-U3 and ODROID-XU4 for easier comparison. The values of the test results were scaled uniformly for comparison purposes. The computing power of the C2 was measured to be ~2-3 times faster than the latest Raspberry Pi 2 thanks to the 2Ghz Cortex-A53 cores and much higher memory bandwidth. The high-performance 2GB DDR3 RAM is an additional advantage allowing most programs to run smoothly on the C2.

So you can run Android OS more smoothly. Note that the XU4 shows around 51,000pts thanks to the much faster A15 cores and Mali-T628 MP6 GPU cores. But the ODROID-C2 has higher rate of the “Performance per Dollar” probably.
Storage I/O comparison
The C2 can boot from a MicroSD card or an eMMC module. The MicroSD interface supports the higher performance UHS-1 mode as well. File access of a 512MB file (read/write) on two different storage options shows distinct performance differences. The eMMC 5.0 storage is ~7x faster than the MicroSD Class-10 card in read tests. The MicroSD UHS-1 card is ~2x faster than the MicroSD Class-10 card in read tests. The MicroSD UHS-1 card provides a great low-cost option for many applications!

BOARD REVISION HISTORYBoard Revision 0.0When we first got the information of S905 and its price, we were so amazed. We had started outlining the product concept. It was rather simple. The ODROID-C1+ fulfils the most of customers' requirement. The hardware design of the ODROID-C2 was started from May 2015.&The performance of the S905 is twice faster than S805, and it support HS400 eMMC Mode which also increase the data transfer speed two time faster. The RAM is also doubled to 2GB on C2 while the C1+ has 1GB. There are 4 x 512MB RAMs, two on top and two on bottom.&The first revision had same blue color as C1+.&This revision was used only for internal software development and evaluation.&Board Revision 0.1It took around two months to evaluate and update the hardware design. The first revision board was on our hands in September 2015. The color of the C2 PCB is changed to black from this revision&for easier distinguish from the C1+ board.ARMv8 64bit processor requires more optimization work than our expectation. After 9months software work, we could send around 40 units of this revision to forum members in January 2016.&We give special thanks to our valuable forum members for the feedback and support on this project.&We officially announced this project via our forum in February 2016.&Board Revision 0.2This is the first mass production version.A few missing/wrong GPIO pins on the 40pin header are corrected.}
