Google Pixel LTE connectivity issues are cropping up in some parts of North and South America. The issue is not widespread yet, but some users are reporting to lose network connectivity while on LTE 4 bands.
The issue is affecting both the Pixel and Pixel XL smartphones from Google. Both these devices are very good smartphones with top notch hardware and one of the best smartphone cameras at present. But is Google going to be in trouble because of this issue? Recently, the Google Pixel also faced issues with Bluetooth connectivity.
Google Pixel LTE Problems
Users started reporting the Google Pixel LTE issues as early as Nov. 1 on Google forums. However, Google has not acknowledged the issue yet. Some users are seeing no LTE signal when trying to connect to LTE band 4, while others are facing the same with different LTE bands.
For some users, their carrier only provides an LTE band, so this is a bigger problem for them. Certain users of Bell and Telus networks in Canada also seem to be affected by connectivity drops. Some users are outraged that after paying a fortune, they cannot even get a proper signal on their pricey device.
Will There Be a Fix?
This is most probably a software issue, as not all networks are affected. According to Android Police, one of their readers was told by a Google Support representative that the company was aware of the problem. The representative stated that a software update will be issued to fix the problem.
If it is not a software issue at Google's end, but something to do with the carrier settings, then users may have to contact their carrier directly. Not much is known as of now, but it is said that Google is working on a software update. No official announcement has been made by Google either.
Once again, this is not a widespread issue yet and only a small number of users in North and South America are facing it. Nevertheless, Google should find out what is wrong and release a fix soon.
