About Company

A1 has successfully established itself as the leader in terms of the mobile network size and high communication quality. Thus, А1's cellular mobile communication has the largest number (over 13,000) of own sites in GSM and UMTS standards in Belarus and the best estimates for the majority of integral indicators according to data provided by the independent regulator "BelGIE", as published on the portal for telecommunications services quality assessment: хваля.бел. Moreover, as it is a partner of the beСloud infrastructure operator, А1 has over 6,000 base stations in the LTE/4G standard in 800, 1,800, and 2,600MHz ranges.

 

For over 25 years, the company has been developing its network and data transmission technologies to provide the best communication quality for its customers. Today, according to the total observations of the хваля.бел portal on the parameters and quality indicators of cellular mobile communication services, it is A1 network for which the following has been recorded:

  • the highest average data transfer rate;
  • the highest average score for video playback quality;
  • the highest average score for speech transfer quality;
  • the lowest ratio of call setup failure to the total number of calls;
  • the lowest ratio of data transfer failure to the total number of data transfer attempts;
  • the lowest WEB browsing failure ratio;
  • the shortest average web-page load time.

These data are derived from the results of cellular mobile communications quality evaluation based on the total observations as of October 23, 2024 and may vary from quarter to quarter.

 

To get the best user experience from the communication services, we recommend using the most modern cellular communication standard in force in Belarus: 4G (LTE). 4th generation communication provides significantly higher mobile Internet speeds and voice communication quality as compared to the previous 3G standard, which allows subscribers to conveniently use all modern communication, entertainment and relaxation opportunities, from making calls and watching videos to remote work and online games. What is especially important is that 4G connection is more stable and reliable as compared to other communication standards. In practice, this means more comfortable conditions for users: phone to your loved ones, communicate in messengers, watch movies without pausing to download, check your email and scroll through your social media without delays.

 

To start using 4G and enjoy all the quality connection benefits, you need:

  • to enable 4G (LTE) in your phone settings. Switching to the new communication standard is completely free. When choosing this mode, the mobile device will select 4G as the priority network, it will be able to automatically temporarily switch to 3G, if necessary;
  • to enable VoLTE mode in the settings to ensure better quality of voice calls;
  • if the SIM card does not support LTE, it should be replaced with USIM or eSIM. You can do this for free at any А1's store;
  • if the phone does not support LTE, you should select the current model using the "4G/LTE support" filter.

 

Check the readiness of your device and SIM card to work in the 4G network using the USSD request *181# call.
