I go to Turkey regularly and I always had a very good bandwidth on 4g, even in the middle of nowhere in Anatolia.
The network is much, much better than here in France.
I guess the geography of Turkey helps a lot there since they usually always have a good vantage point to put antenna.
I don't know why people in this thread seem to think that Turkey is a poor developing country. It's not. Even with the recent political issues and the economical crisis, it is much better than a lot of country in Europe and in the EU.
I think many people here genuinely don’t have much of an understanding of what they’re talking about most of the time, and you just catch it for the things that you personally know about. Makes you think about what one misses and takes as fact based on comments because you don’t about other topics.
Also, good LTE availability is also probably because it’s easy to place towers on top of flats legislatively speaking, and due to ruthless competition between three carriers.
I’m sorry if that sounded rude, it wasn’t meant to be. Ultimately though, you’re using the argument to paint an incorrect picture and then operate within that picture to make further claims. If you think it was a weak point, or not relevant within the context, it’s generally best to keep it out. I do pretty heavy cleanup after I write comments myself to not look like I’m implying something that I’m actually not.

In the EU, there is a lot of prejudice against Turkish people because of the decades of immigration. Think of how most Americans stereotype Mexico and Mexican people, and that's roughly how many people in the EU regard Turkey.
In the US people don't really know anything about Turkey, aside from a vague idea that it's "middle eastern". Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if a huge percentage of Americans think Turkey is all deserts and they speak Arabic.
