Zong 4G, Pakistan’s No.1 4G network, has collaborated with LePhone to launch affordable 4G handsets in Pakistan. Under this partnership, 3 variants of LePhone’s 4G handsets have been launched in an elegant event hosted at Zong 4G’s flagship Service Center in Lahore. This partnership is in line with Zong 4G’s objective of creating a complete 4G ecosystem in Pakistan, enabling high-speed connectivity for the masses and revolutionizing the lifestyle of the Pakistani people.
In the ceremony, senior officials of Zong 4G outlined the importance of 4G for the people of Pakistan and its role in taking the country forward on the path of progress, enabled with high-speed internet. Zong 4G has served as an enabler of rapid technological advancements in the country.

Currently, Zong 4G provides 4G connectivity to over 300 cities of Pakistan and is aggressively expanding its footprint in both the Urban and Rural areas of the country.

3. LePhone W12
LePhone W11
Don’t go for the naming scheme here as LePhone W11 comes with better features compared to the other two. It is still an entry level device with a small screen and a dated processor.
W11 somewhat makes up for it with its good build quality and decent camera performance.

LePhone W12
Despite the name, LePhone W12 is actually cheaper and a slightly lower end device compared to the W11. It shares almost all of the W11’s specs, however, it misses out on the fingerprint scanner and the slightly larger battery.
Sans the fingerprint scanner, you won”t notice any difference between the two devices.

LePhone W7 Plus
W7 Plus is the cheapest of the lot and rightly so. While it shares the processing package, there’s less storage space on the device.
The smaller battery and weaker camera also make space for the price cut.
However, even at less than Rs. 9,000, it still supports Zong’s 4G network.
