3g and regular phone calls - Sweden

tuskland — Thu, 05 Feb 2015 20:38:35 GMT

Does the z3c work with 3g and can it make regular calls and send texts in Sweden?

It should normally work in Sweden on 3G.

3G bands	HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100 - D5803
	HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 - D5833

Which model do you have?

I hanv´t bought one yet because of this uncertainty.

I friend said that even though it has 3g/4g it lacks the antenna to make regular calls and recieve texts. Otherwise why call it a tablet?

So does it have an antenna? Is it possible to use as a regular phone? (If there are several models, I would need the model that is capable of regular calls)

I have a subscription with "Telenor" in Sweden for 3G.

3G bands

HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100

Hi Tuskland,

Welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.

The Xperia Z3 tablet does allow calls, however there is no Ear speaker, so you will need to use a headset or use the loudspeaker when making calls.

I hope this helps.

Sorry to keep this discussion going-

I rechecked a resellers homepage of the phone where it said "supports voice calls: no"

And therefore asked my friend who uses sony z3 ultra again. He said that the z3c tablet doesn´t support calls and text messages through GSM..just regular data through 3g and 4g.

_alexdon_ — Fri, 06 Feb 2015 09:26:06 GMT

He might have wifi only version of the tablet.

Re: 3g and regular phone calls - Sweden

tuskland — Fri, 06 Feb 2015 09:41:15 GMT

No, he only had the z3 ultra, but he said he was sure even the 3g/4g version of the tablet doesnt support GSM calls and texts.

Can you confirm that it does support it? 😮

Re: 3g and regular phone calls - Sweden

_alexdon_ — Fri, 06 Feb 2015 09:42:55 GMT

There is no such device as Z3 ultra. Only Z ultra or Z3.

tuskland — Fri, 06 Feb 2015 09:47:11 GMT

Sorry again, i meant z ultra.

Re: 3g and regular phone calls - Sweden

_alexdon_ — Fri, 06 Feb 2015 09:50:42 GMT

Z ultra can be used for calls normally,not only via mobile data.

Re: 3g and regular phone calls - Sweden

tuskland — Fri, 06 Feb 2015 09:57:51 GMT

I have no questions about z ultra though. My Q only regards z3c tablet.

Re: 3g and regular phone calls - Sweden

_alexdon_ — Fri, 06 Feb 2015 10:01:28 GMT

The tablet can be used for calls/messages,but you need to either use a headset or loduspeaker as there is no ear speaker. Jake told this,which means it is compatible.

Re: 3g and regular phone calls - Sweden

tuskland — Fri, 06 Feb 2015 10:11:55 GMT

And those calls can be made through the GSM network? Right?

Re: 3g and regular phone calls - Sweden

tuskland — Fri, 06 Feb 2015 10:28:30 GMT

That´s the most important question i have.
