The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge are some of the most innovative devices that have yet to hit some territories. In fact, these two Note devices are expected to come as premium devices when they dock into the Australian territory upon release.

This is due to the fact that the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and Samsung Galaxy Note Edge will be the first two devices that are compatible with 4G bands. Specifically, these two devices will have the capability for carrier aggregation for the 700MHz and 1800MHz bands.

According to ZDNet, Optus and Telstra are currently are offering these, and with the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and Samsung Galaxy Note Edge, the devices can now offer users better and faster speeds using the 4G network.
