Sprint 4G LTE

Bought a new Android from Sprint to replace the one I destroyed and was pleasantly surprised by this. I'd be nice if they could deploy this nationwide.

The Sprint 'all you can eat' data plan is tempting, but I am not confident that it will work in enough places to be worth it.

Its going to take them a couple years to catch up to Verzion, but they will eventually have LTE rolled out.

I recently drove cross country, and there was almost nowhere I didn't at least have service. They also have 4g where I'm at now, and it is lightning fast. I currently have the EVO 4G, but it's on it's last leg and I will be getting the GS3 next week and sticking with Sprint. My bill is $91 a month with the insurance policy.

Still patchy in some major markets, I don't get it at home. Can't beat the free domestic roaming for voice, text and data though. Plus the price is right, I'm on the lowest minute plan and it's great because I don't call landlines very frequently anymore.

Here in the IE all they have is 3G, but I hear they are rolling out 4G in the next 3 months or so. Currently the 3G is painfully slow and almost not even worth using. Frankly, my old 56K dialup was faster than the sprint 3G here.

That's the problem in lots of places otherwise no brainer to switch.

That's what i'm worried about too. Anyone know how well it works in San Diego?

Only 3G...

no LTE in OC that i've found

Sprint 3g is pretty bad. I think the fastest I got in the bay area was like 1.5mb download.

I recently changed to tmobile and noticed a huge signal improvement everywhere in the east bay. Far better coverage. Plus I get LTE speeds on tmobile even though my phone is only hspa+. Did a speedtest a few days ago and got 19.13mb download/2.51 upload. It normally hovers around 15-19mbps. Who needs LTE with speeds like that

[yellowsulphur]

I agree with you guys that the 3G speeds aren't the greatest. I live about a mile from the San Francisco border and consider LTE to be more like big WiFi hot spot instead of continuous coverage. Since Sprint has free data roaming it's possible I could be using Verizon's towers.

[den888]

Yes, it's pretty fast!

[Loner]

Good to hear. I'm currently still on a grandfathered Verizon 4G LTE plan, but if Sprint can get it together, it could pressure VZ to compete on their plans again.

4G LTE is pretty good IF you can get signal. I don't get it at all at my house, but at work I get a clean 12mb down.
