There is no country in the world that has full 4G deployment. They just call LTE, 4G network for marketing purpose.

Every country pulls this sh*t with LTE and calls it 4G.
LTE-Advanced is a true 4G technology which some operators are trying to roll out within 2014. Don't think it will be ready anytime soon.
