Almost every phone launched at this week's Mobile World Congress was sold on the promise of having super-fast speeds thanks to built-in LTE technology. LTE, also known as 4G, officially launched in the UK last year, but it's been growing in popularity globally for the past five years.The technology covers a wider range of frequencies and has the potential to be up to 100 hundred times faster than slower 2G and 3G networks, but a software and security expert has told the daily this increased speed comes at a price - security.
Both 2G and 3G networks were primarily designed for feature phones; for voice calls and texts, rather than data. However, 4G was designed especially for sending and receiving data, making it more equipped for the job.
