Why are phone carriers no longer supporting phones that run on a 3G network?
In: Technology
* Most carriers are deploying 5G networks now.
* Supporting older technology costs money and as more customers switch to 4G and 5G, there is less reason to invest money in supporting 3G.
* But there are always older users who don’t care about upgrading and as long as they are on the network, the carriers have to support those devices.
* So forcing older devices off the network allows them to focus their money on newer technology.
* This is an issue in all technology industries that support users with devices.
