YTL has branded its [[WiMAX]] network '4G', although this is potentially confusing to customers. The [[ITU-R]] [[4G#WiMAX|definition of 4G]] is a download speed potential of 1Gb/second, which Yes's WiMAX network does not currently achieve. '4G' is purely a marketing term as the deployed network is merely newer and more advanced than current 3rd generation mobile technology—thus is in-between 3G and true 4G technology. It is more accurately termed as pre-4G. |

4G WiMAX Network
YTL has branded its WiMAX network '4G', although this is potentially confusing to customers. The ITU-R definition of 4G is a download speed potential of 1Gb/second, which Yes's WiMAX network does not currently achieve. '4G' is purely a marketing term as the deployed network is merely newer and more advanced than current 3rd generation mobile technology—thus is in-between 3G and true 4G technology. It is more accurately termed as pre-4G.
Devices
As at launch date, Yes devices available are the Yes Go USB dongle and Yes Huddle Wi-Fi mobile hotspot[1]. Other products to come include a Yes 4G phone called the Yes Buzz and a home/office WiFi gateway called the Yes Zoom.
