Use of the iPhone on Solavei Network


We understand the use of an iPhone on the Solavei Network
is important to our members, and our members experience is
our top priority.
Due to the current iPhone experience on the Solavei
Network we encourage our members to purchase or use an
Android device, however if you are a loyal iPhone user
consider the following before making this decision:
• The iPhone will not be an officially supported phone by Solavei at the
time of launch because the iPhone is not compatible with the Solavei
Community mobile application. For iPhone users, access to the
Solavei Community will be available via the website which you can
still reach from your phone browser.
• TheiPhonewillbecategorizedasa“UsablePhone”–
meaningthatprovidedthememberhas an unlocked GSM (takes a SIM card)
version of the iPhone, they will be able to put in a Solavei SIM card and
get a quality voice and text experience with data at 2G / EDGE
speeds.
• Enhancing data speeds to 3G and 4G on the Solavei Network requires
Solavei partners to complete a significant network upgrade and
become compatible with a new frequency range. Our partners are
investing heavily and have urgency to complete these upgrades.
Solavei will notify its members as use of higher speeds for the
iPhone become available city-by-city in the future.
