ZTE MF822 4G Aircard VS ZTE MF823 4G Modem

Since more and more people are using 4G network for their home or office, they improve the communication efficiency through high network connection speed. As one of the important telecom equipment sipplier, ZTE had releases many 4G Aircards for various operators. And more and more people know ZTE and ZTE 4G modems.

 

 

ZTE MF823 and MF822 are two of the hot 4G dongles. ZTE MF823 is the world’s slimmest 4G USB dongle. Due to the compacity requirement, the inner part of a 4G modem usually contains more contents so as to fulfill more functions and high demand for network. This feature makes 4G dongle in bigger body than 3G modems. ZTE optimized this feature and let MF823 in slim size, actually, some predecessor model of ZTE MF823 is also very big, many users feedback they don’t like the big body..

 

ZTEMF823 4G USB Stick is now available for O2 contract, the O2 LTE USB 4G could support 4G LTE FDD bands 3/7/8/20 (800/900/1800/2600MHz), which is for Germany 4G network. However, the unlocked ZTE MF823 would in other European countries, such France, Portugal, UK, Switzerland, Netherlands and Finland. Most of the 4G network frequency bands are similar, which makes the roam of ZTE MF823 come true. What’s more, ZTE Mf823 could work with most 4G operators in Asia and Middle East.

 

 

By the way, unlike the first generation 4G dongle from ZTE, MF823 is in compact USB design, the USB can’t rotate. The other model ZTE MF822 is one special one, it’s a 4G USB Modem for North America. It could support 4G LTE frequency band 4 and band 7 (1700/2100/2600MHz), which is mostly deployed in Canada and USA. ZTE MF822 is already available for Canada operator “Rogers”. To work with Rogers, the FCC certificate is necessary for the device. As we know, ZTE MF822 is the only model that combines 4G band 4 and band 7. So unlocked ZTE MF822 could work in Canada and also roam to work with some operators in USA. Frankly speaking, ZTE MF822 could also work with the operators in Asia and Europe who provider the LTE band 7. So MF822 is also powerful in the compatibility with global operators.

 

 

ZTE MF823 and MF822 are not brother models, but they are both LTE category 3 USB modem. They both support the peak download speed up to 100Mbps and upload speed up to 50Mbps. The speeds are amazing for the user to trip or surf outdoor, if you want unlock MF823 or MF822, welcome to visit http://www.4gltemall.com/4g-usb-modem/zte-4g-lte-modem.html .

 

 

ZTE MF91T 4G Router VS ZTE MF91S Mobile Hotspot

If you have many electronics in pocket and want them all access Internet, it’s a good idea to have a mobile pocket WiFi hotspot. Since 4G is becoming the mainstream, more and more 4G pocket WiFi is optional for users. As one of the wireless terminals supplier, ZTE has many mobile hotspot for users, such as ZTE MF91, MF91T, MF91s, MF91D etc… Many people feel confused by the model numbers.

 

 

Most times, we see the ZTE mobile hotspots are in the same blue package, from the 3G mobile hotspot to 4G, no new design element could be found. In the aspect, ZTE is not doing well. User can only see the model number from the back stick and can’t identify the broadband difference.

 

 

If you have ZTE MF91T and MF91s, you may be unable to tell from them. You may know they are both 4G TD-LTE mobile router, but what’s the really difference between then?

 

 

Usually, the main difference between the mobile hotspot is on the frequency bands. ZTE MF91T hotspot could support 4G TD-LTE band 38 and 40 (2300/2600MHz) and 3G HSPA+ 900/2100MHz. ZTE MF91S could also support TD-LTE band 38 and 40. What’s more, it also supports TDD band 39 (1900MHz) and FDD band 7(2600MHz). ZTE MF91s is specially for Chinese operator “China mobile”. So these 4G bands are for 4G network in China, and MF91s supports 3G TD-SCDMA & 2G GPRS.

 

 

The frequency band that the pocket WiFi supports is the main concern. Since the LTE technology difference, the connection speed may vary. ZTE MF91T could support maximum download speed up to 68Mbps while upload speed to 17Mbps. Since ZTE MF91s is a TDD/FDD dual-mode mobile hotspot, when working on TDD mode, ZTE MF91S could reach same speed as MF91T, but when working FDD mode, MF91s mobile router could reach peak download speed up to 100Mbps and upload speed to 50Mbps. From this aspect, we can see LTE dual-mode mobile hotspot is more flexible to adapt to the network environment.

 

 

 

Other features are almost the same because they comes from the same design, inner part is modified to suit different LTE networks. If you want unlocked ZTE MF91T or MF91s, welcome to buy from www.4gltemall.com

 

Unlocked Telstra USB 4G (ZTE MF821) 4G USB Modem Review

Today, we get a new 4G LTE USB datacard, the 4G aircard model number is ZTE MF821. The 4G modem is packed well in a box, there is the operator’s logo “Telstra USB 4G” on the front box, and the information is telling user this 4G USB modem. The ZTE MF821 is already unlocked by our group, so users don’t need worry about the lock issue.

 

 

At the side of the box, we can see that LTE Frequency bands that ZTE MF821 could work with. The specification indicates MF821 could support FDD LTE 1800/2600Mhz, but per our information from the manufacturer ZTE, the modem MF821 4G aircard could support band 1, band 3 and band 7(1800/2100/2600MHz), we suppose this band is not activated because the operator Telstra is not providing the LTE band 1 (2100MHz).

 

 

 

And the 3G DC-HSPA+ Tri-band (850/1900/2100) is backward compatible. Under the 4G LTE network, user could enjoy high speed up to 10Mbps. Even on 3G network, ZTE MF821 could reach speed to 42Mbps.

 

 

 

Open the package, we can see the 4G dongle ZTE MF821. There is a logo of “4G” and “T”, which means Telstra 4G. On the side, we can see two small icon of signal; they are two hidden connectors for external antennas. This feature is important for 4G data transmission, and it lets MF821 different from MF820 or MF820T. On the other side, there is no slot.

 

 

 

The USB of ZTE MF821 is rotatable for 180 degree, user could hide the USB in the body of MF821. User need open the back over and find the SIM card slot. On the SIM slot, we can see the model number, IMEI number, place of origin (Made in China) and manufacturer ZTE Corporation. And close to the SIM card slot, there is a slot for MicroSD memory card. The MF821 could support maximum 32GB SD memory card.

 

 

 

Comparing with other ZTE 4G Aircard, such MF880 or MF820D, ZTE MF821 is really very slim, the size of MF821 is as big as a 3G datacard.  So if a user prefer a small size USB dongle, ZTE MF821 is a good option and without any contract. But before purchase, user should concern about the 4G frequency band  compatibility, if you want a 4G Aircard for FDD band 20 (800MHz) or TDD band 38 (2300MHz), or any other bands that are not same as MF821 supporting, you may need check other model and choose the right one. You can check here more 4G Aircard for various LTE frequency bands:   http://www.4gltemall.com/ue-by-spectrum.html

 

 

 

 

 

 

ZTE MF820T TD-LTE Modem VS ZTE MF820D FDD-LTE Modem

Most of ZTE 4G modems looks the same, and the first generation of ZTE 4G Dongles are all using same appearance design, so it becomes much harder to identify them. No wonder what the difference between them is. We open the blog especially for clear out the similar 4G devices and let users know more about the details of the LTE modems they had used.

 

 

ZTE MF820T and ZTE MF820D are two similar 4G LTE sticks for first generation ZTE 4G USB modems. Most of the modems, appearance similar or not, their difference are mainly on the core part, that is the platform chipset, which decides what LTE frequency bands that could support and where they can be used.

 

ZTE MF820T is based on Qualcomm MDM9600 chipset, it could work TD-LTE bands 38 and band 40 (2300/2600MHz). ZTE MF820D is based on Qualcomm MDM9200 chipset, it would support FDD LTE band 3, 7 and 20 (800/1800/2600MHz). Unlike ZTE MF880, they can only work on single TD-LTE network or FDD network, MF880 would support LTE dual-mode (TDD&FDD).

 

 

As the typical features of ZTE first generation 4G USB stick, there is no external antenna connector in the dongle, so the LTE MIMO transmission can’t make true. But there is built-in antenna which is still reliable to connect network in high speed.

 

What’s more, there is no MicroSD card slot available in MF820T and MF820D. We suppose they are not for single user, it’s more like designed for large data in project test or other research terms. However, the 4G aircard may be more reliable when there is no SD card sharing function. According to the experience in 3G modems, SD card usually causes the application of wireless dongle in trouble.

 

 

And we can see the big body of the 4G modem ZTE MF820D and MF820T is not user-friendly. It’s almost twice bigger than ZTE 3G modems. We hope there will be some smarter or slimmer models available in near future, and this will not only need the improvement in the design for inner part, but also the function more powerful.

 

How to Buy 4G Modem between Similar Models?

More and more people are choosing 4G modems as their preferred network in the plan. And more and more 4G dongles are available for various operators all over the world. Then here comes a problem: many customers feel confused by the models and especially two similar models. Customer don’t know what’s the difference, which make s them in trouble deciding which one to buy.

 

 

ZTE MF821 and MF821D are two similar 4G dongles. We will take the two 4G LTE modem as example to explain our topic today. Now if I list them in front of you and let you tell what the difference is. You maybe feel headache…don’t worry; if I were you, I also can’t tell anything, perhaps my answer is they are completely the same.  But actually, they are different, of course, not on the appearance.

 

The key differences for most of the 4G modems are the LTE frequency bands that they could support. Other features are almost the same and not influence the usage. ZTE MF821 could support 4G LTE band 1, band 3 and band 7 (1800/2100/2600MHz). But ZTE MF821D supports band 3, Band 7 and band 20(800/1800/2600MHz).

 

Even though some customer may concern about the connector for external 4G antenna, the network bands should be the first concern because it determines whether a 4G modem would work properly or not. And we could see this feature from the dongle body. The inner part, especially the technical specifications are invisible.

 

 

Getting to know the specification of the 4G LTE modem, user need check the operator’s network bands. If the bands are partially the same as the 4G USB dongle or 4G mobile hotspot, then the operators’ SIM card work with the Wireless devices.  But if you are using a USB modem that is not with contract plan, you must make sure the USB modems are SIM card unlocked.

 

 

Above should be the key matters that influence the usage of a 4G dongle/modem/surfstick/datacard.  If you want to know the details of a 4G USB Modem, welcome to check the list UEs by LTE Frequency bands: http://www.4gltemall.com/ue-by-spectrum.html

 

LTE Dual-mode 4G Modem-ZTE MF880 VS MF825

More and more operators are investing the TD-LTE technology so as to improve the spectrum application efficiency. It seems the TDD technology would become the mainstream for LTE network. But We could also see the dual-mode LTE, that is FDD & TD-LTE combination, is also become popular.

 

 

To make the LTE dual-mode network more efficiency, the UEs must also support FDD and TDD bands simultaneously, and they could auto switch between the two modes. We have found there are many USB dongles, mobile WiFi hotspots and LTE router available for such networks.

 

 

As one of the important vendor for 4G LTE equipments, ZTE had released many models that can support TD-LTE/FDD dual-mode networks. ZTE MF880 and MF825 are such 4G USB dongles.

 

 

 

ZTE MF880 is the first generation 4G modem from ZTE. One of the main features for them is they don’t have the connector for MIMO external antennas. The body of the 4G modem is a little bit bigger than 3G modems. As a 4G dual-mode LTE modem, ZTE MF880 could support 4G FDD band 20 & band 7(800/2600MHz), and TD-LTE band 38 & band 40 (2300/2600MHz). Band 7 and band 20 are two most popular spectrums in European countries and the two TDD bands are the most commonly deployed broadband worldwide, which make ZTE MF880 4G data card one of the most popular 4G dongles.

 

 

ZTE MF825 is the typical model for the second generation of ZTE 4G modems. Based optimization and improve in hardware and firmware, the ZTE is much slimmer then it’s predecessors. And it’s not as big as ZTE MF880, and to make the MIMO transmission come true, two external antenna connectors are available in MF825. Besides the TDD band 38 & 40(2300/2600MHz), ZTE MF825 supports more FDD bands, they are band 20, band 3, band 1 & band 7(800/1800/2100/2600MHz). From the specification, we could know if ZTE MF880 could work in any place, ZTE MF825 would fully replace it.

 

 

 

What’s more, the two 4G dongles ZTE MF880 and MF825 could also work on 3G UMTS/DC-HSPA+ networks (900/2100MHz) and 2G GAM/GPRS networks, and the peak download speed on 3G could reach 42Mbps. So if user is in a location where 4G network is not available, the two ZTE 4G modems would switch to 3G to fulfill the Internet access requirement.

 

 

Someone may ask, if ZTE MF825 could fully replace MF880, then why they both are presented from operators? It’s a good question, actually, the more powerful one device is, and the more expensive it is. ZTE MF825 is more powerful based on its great internal chipset, and it costs more. For some operators, it’s unnecessary for them to use a modem with high price when a cheaper one could meet the requirements. And for some operators, they didn’t provide some of the network spectrums that ZTE MF825 supports.

 

But for users who usually travel overseas or to different countries, it would be better to get ZTE MF825, because it would be more possible for the data card to compatible with the target operators when on a trip.

 

To conclude, the LTE dual-mode 4G modems provide better solution for users to access Internet and travel around. If you want more TD-LTE/FDD USB modem, welcome to visit www.4gltemall.com .

 

ZTE MF28G 4G LTE Router VS ZTE MF28D 4G LTE CPE

As the one of the most important UE device to support 4G LTE networks, 4G Router is on a replaceable position. Many vendors are trying their best to improve the research and development on this field. The Chinese vendor ZTE is also trying to present more telecommunication equipments to share the market.

 

As we can see, just ZTE 4G Modems, ZTE 4G Routers also looks very similar in appearance. Perhaps they just want to save more budgets, just using one appearance design and change the inner core part to make up a new model. So users usually can’t identify which model number of a LTE router, even when they know two model numbers of the router, they don’t know what the difference between them is. ZTE MF28G and MF28D are just on the case.

 

ZTE MF28G and MF28D are the 4G LTE CPE/Router from ZTE, they are for the 4G LTE networks and provide high speed Internet connection.

 

 

Appearance

 

As we said, they are using same appearance design, from the outside, we can’t tell from them. There are almost same indicators on the front screen, on the back, there are 4 RJ45 Ethernet cable ports, 2 RJ11 connector for analog telephone and one USB 2.0 interface for host file sharing.  And beside is the plug port for power supply.

 

 

Network Frequency Bands

 

 

The frequency bands supported should be the key difference between the two 4G Routers. ZTE MF28D router is a FDD-LTE router, which support 4G FDD band 1, band 3, band 7 and band 20 (800/1800/2100/2600MHz). And 3G DC-HSPA+/UMTS networks (900/1200MHz) are backward compatible.

 

 

ZTE MF28G LTE CPE is a FDD/TD-LTE dual-mode CPE router. MF28G Router could support FDD band 7 band 20(800/2600MHz), and TD-LTE band 38 & band 40 (2300/2600MHz). Similarly, ZTE MF28G LTE router also could support 3G networks as backup.

 

 

Connection Speed and User Support

 

In good network environment, the peak download speed of ZTE MF28D could reach 100Mbps and upload speed to 50Mbps when work on FDD networks. The speed ZTE MF28G varies depending on the network mode. When working on TDD mode, MF28G could allow maximum download speed up to 68Mbps and upload speed up to 17Mbps. However, if working on FDD LTE networks, the downlink could reach 100Mbps and uplink could reach 50Mbps.

 

 

Of course, the speeds above for data rate speed are theoretical and can make true only in preface situation. In real life, the speeds may not as faster as expected, but it’s still amazing and much faster than 3G speed.

 

ZTE MF28G and MF28D could both allow up to 32 users to get connected and surf. So they are good for SOHO, home and small office. The USB interface is help group users to share the files via host Memory.

 

If you like them, you could buy them from www.4gltemall.com , and before you buy, please confirm the 4G network status and choose the right one. If you need any help, we will be always available here.

 

Difference Between ZTE MF910 and ZTE MF91D 4G LTE Router

Just like ZTE 4G LTE USB modems, ZTE 4G LTE mobile Hotspot looks the same in appearance, but there are some difference between these models. ZTE MF910 and MF91D are two 4G mobile pocket router that looks the same.

 

 

 

Today, we will have a Review of the two similar 4G Pocket WiFi Router. As we know, the ZTE MF91D 4G hotspot has already been presented to public for operators in many countries. It seems ZTE MF910 WiFi hotspot seems not as popular as MF91D right now. But after we review the two MIFIs, you may change this idea.

Appearance

 

As we can see, the two mobile hotspots look very similar, we suppose the manufacturer ZTE use the same design appearance for MF910 and MF91D. There is only one button on the front of device, below the screen. There are WPS button, MicroSD card slot and external antenna connector at the side of the body. And one more USB interface for battery charge.

 

The SIM card slot is in the inner part of the body, user must open the back cover and remove the battery to insert SIM card.

 

 

 

 

UE category and Link Speed

 

 

ZTE MF910 and MF91D are both LTE category 3 mobile router, as the typical feature of Cat 3, the mobile 4G router could support maximum download speed up to 100Mbps, and the peak download speed could reach 50Mbps.

 

What’s more, the 3G UMTS and 2G GSM/GPRS networks are backward. When working on 3G DC-HSPA+ network, the peak speed could reach 42Mbps. So when user goes to somewhere 4G network is not available, the 4G MiFi could auto switch and work on 3G network in high speed.

 

 

Networks Bands

 

This should be the core difference between MF910 an MF91D. Because this decides where they could work and which operator they would support. The ZTE MF91D could support 4G LTE Band 8, Band 3 and Band 7 (900/1800/2600MHz) while ZTE MF91D would support the three bands and Band 20(800MHz). With this specification, they both could roam in most European countries. But in some specific areas, ZTE MF91D may be unable to work on 4g Network. For example, if user uses the MF91D in remote area far from downtown where the 4G band 20 is deployed, it may not connect to 4G and switch to 3G network.

 

 

It may not occur on ZTE MF910 because it supports the most popular three LTE bands in Europe areas. So unlock ZTE MF910 could fully replace MF91D. Someone may ask, then why the two models exist simultaneously? It’s a good question, usually, the more bands a UE decide could support, the more expensive it is. So ZTE MF91D is in lower price than MF910. And some operator didn’t adopt the LTE band 20, it’s unnecessary for them to order a device with this band supported.

 

 

By the way, almost all the LTE mobile WiFi Hotspot could support up to 10 WiFi users to access Internet and surf, including the ZTE MF910 and MF91D.

 

 

 

In conclusion, ZTE MF910 4G hotspot is more powerful than MF91D, but user could buy budget MF91D per the actual situation. If you want know more 4G mobile hotspots, welcome to land www.4gltemall.com .

 

 

 

 

Difference Between ZTE MF93E and ZTE MF91D 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot Router

Following the commonly deployment of 4G LTE network worldwide, more and more 4G terminals are demanded by the operators. As one of the important vendors, ZTE had gained many business plans from the operators and its wireless gadgets are also very popular. ZTE MF93E and ZTE MF91D 4G LTE mobile hotspot are two models for 4G LTE networks.

 

 

Sometimes, most customers may know the model number of the UEs. But they don’t know whether the 4G modems or 4G routers would work with the providers in their countries. Today, we will have a review of the two models ZTE MF93E and ZTE MF91D.

 

Network Frequency Band

 

ZTE MF91D 4G Hotspot is earlier available in same countries, it’s mainly European 4G networks. MF91D Hotspot supports 4G FDD band 7, band 8 and band 3 (900/1800/2600MHz); they are the most popular three spectrum band in European area. And the 3G UMTS & 2G networks are backward compatible.

 

 

 

 

 

 

ZTE MF93E 4G Mobile Router is a LTE dual-mode (TDD & FDD) WiFi Hotspot. It supports TD-LTE band 3 & band 7 (1800/2600MHz) and FDD bands 38 & band 40 (2300/2600MHz). Based on this specification, MF93E hotspot router is more suitable for the 4G networks in Asia and Middle East areas, such as Hong Kong, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, China etc.. Just like MF91D, ZTE MF93E dual-mode TDD/FDD hotspot could also works on 3G UMTS 900/2100MHz and 2G GSM/GPRS networks.

 

 

Appearance

 

The appearance of ZTE MF93E and MF91D looks not the same. MF93E is in the design of horizontal, but MF91D is in vertical design. To make the device more user-friendly, the both have only one button in the front. And there is OLED screen to indicate the important information, including network status, operator, WiFi connectors, battery life and data statistics. The batteries in the body are removable and re-chargeable.

 

 

 

Link Speed and Connectors Support

 

 

ZTE MF91D 4G Pocket Router could reach peak download speed up to 100Mbps and upload speed to 50Mbps on 4G LTE FDD network. It could allow up to 10 users access Internet simultaneous. ZTE MF93E has the same functions like MF91D when it’s on FDD mode, however, when working on TD-LTE network, MF93E could support maximum download speed up to 68Mbps and 17Mbps for upload.

 

 

 

Above are the important features of the 4G Pocket WiFi that matters the user experience, if you want to buy unlocked ZTE MF93E or MF91D, welcome to land www.4gltemall.com .
