Introducing 3G+

What is 3G+ and what does it mean to you?

 

3G+ is TELUS' new state-of-the-art network. It’s the latest evolution of wireless technology, providing amazingly fast data speeds. With the launch of this new network, TELUS is able to offer our clients the most compelling wireless devices available all with international roaming in over 200 countries. Along with our CDMA and Mike (iDEN) device line-ups, this addition is designed to offer you more choice. We're dedicated to helping you find the right device on the right network with a compelling selection of handsets.


TELUS' 3G+ network provides many benefits for you:

The latest and greatest devices

The addition of the 3G+ network to our multi-network offering allows TELUS to continue to extend our smartphone leadership position by bringing you the most advanced devices. We offer to offer a compelling selection of 3G+ devices, including some amazing exclusives.

Canada’s largest 3G+ network* with roaming in 200+ countries

Our new national network will be Canada's largest 3G+ network, offering coverage for 93% of the Canadian population. In addition, all of TELUS' 3G+ devices roam internationally, so you can use them in over 200 countries worldwide.

3G+ speeds in more places

TELUS' 3G+ network provides access to fast network speeds that enable us to offer great client experience when browsing the Internet, downloading files and tethering. Because TELUS' 3G+ devices will never revert to slower technology, TELUS will offer you 3G+ speed throughout our entire coverage area.


As an existing TELUS client, what happens to my service?

 

Rest easy

Using the existing CDMA and Mike (iDEN) networks? TELUS continues to offer its CDMA and Mike (iDEN) services in parallel with 3G+, providing Canadians with more choice for years to come. Today, over 6 million TELUS clients subscribe to CDMA and Mike (iDEN) services. The addition of the new 3G+ network does not mean you will need to switch devices or change your services in any way; simply remain on CDMA and Mike (iDEN) or choose to move to one of our 3G+ devices with our simple upgrade process.**
