Is an iphone 3gs capable of upgrading to 4g?

My provider is offering a free upgrade to 4g shortly but I am not sure if my iphone 3gs is able to take the upgrade.

Hi redlion35,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Unfortunately, the iPhone 3GS is not capable of utilizing 4G data connection. You can, however, upgrade to one of Apple's newer devices, such as the iPhone 4s, which is capable of 4G, includes Siri, and uses iOS 7. Or, you can even purchase the iPhone 5s or 5c, providing your provider serves it.


Best wishes,

-Marcus
