[QUOTE="JPH675, post: 1539846, member: 236454"] [b]Fair answer?[/b] Thanks to Jake for providing the background to formulate the answer to this question. To make a highly technical answer simple, this may be a reasonable interpretation: The AT&T GSM network iPhone 5, 5C, and 5S are able to accommodate multiple lightweight transmitters for voice and data use together. The different Verizon CDMA network requires heavier transmitters for voice and data use together that would have exceeded Apple’s design weight goal for the iPhone devices named previously. Therefore, the fair and correct answer to this question should have been something to the effect that Verizon’s unique network requires two heavy transmitters that would have increased the weight of the iPhone 5 and up significantly; therefore, [B]Apple chose[/B] to not install the second transmitter that would allow voice and data to be used together. Perhaps technology will solve this dilemma in future iPhones. The Android devices with dual capability are usually larger and heavier than the 5, 5C, and 5S for Verizon. There is no chance wi-fi was involved in response to one inquiry. Seem reasonable? [/QUOTE]
