We understand the use of an iPhone on the Solavei Network is important to some members and our members are our top priority.
The iPhone will not provide the complete experience available on the Solavei Network, but it can be used. If you cannot switch to an Android device and want to use your iPhone, please consider the following:
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.
Despite this "official stance", iPhone users (Founding Members) have already been testing the SIM card with their iPhones in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The feedback reports are very promising. The one Founding Member who spoke at the World's Largest Webinar on August 22, 2012 said that he 1) easily unlocked his phone and 2) installed the SIM card and is enjoying fast speeds.
The iPhone will be categorized as a "Usable Phone" - meaning that provided the member has 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. T-Mobile is reporting that their network will be fully iPhone compatible and upgraded by Spring 2013.
Why Android?
The HTC One S currently being offered by Solavei is rich and highly competitive phone that many critics are declaring to be superior to the iPhone.
Android market share in the U.S and nationwide continues to rise and far exceeds any other operating system. There are roughly 100M smart phones in use in the U.S, 50% of these being Android (50M), 30% being iPhones (30M) with a smaller share of Blackberry, Windows, etc.
The 50%+ of U.S. Android mobile users also rave about the variety of handset manufacturers, styles, pricing and free applications available with the Android operating system.
