The report notes that the Intel 7360 chip will ship inside a special version of the iPhone that will be marketed to emerging markets in Asia and Latin America.

Well, this is interesting news for all of those Sprint iPhone users in Vietnam and Honduras.

This would fit the bill for most carriers, though, since it supports EDGE, DC-HSPA+, TD-SCDMA (China), TDD-LTE, and FDD-LTE. 

 

But it's cool to see its specs - now we know what's coming up in smartphones later this year. LTE Cat. 10 with ability to aggregate 3 carriers up to 60MHz downlink (450Mbps max). 29 LTE bands. LTE Broadcast.

 

I bet AT&T would love to see more three carrier CA devices out there, considering they're up to 6 LTE bands.

Qualcomm Licensing fees, qualcomm's mastery of CDMA? Idk

Plus CDMA's days are numbered while att is still deploying new metro cells with umts.

Not UMTS or WCDMA. They support those technologies. It will not support CDMA-2000 or its derivatives. So Verizon and Sprint are out but there is nothing prohibiting using Intel for AT&T and T-Mobile.

    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
    • At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!
    • Did you mean a different site? eNB ID 112039 has been around for years. Streetview even has it with C-band back in 2022 - https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7303042,-73.9610924,3a,24.1y,18.03h,109.66t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g!2e0!5s20220201T000000!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.share%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26yaw%3D18.027734930682684%26pitch%3D-19.664180274382204%26thumbfov%3D90!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205410&entry=ttu Meanwhile, Verizon's eNB 84484 in Fort Greene has been updated to include C-band and CBRS, but not mmWave. I've seen this a few times now on updated Verizon sites where it's just the CBRS antenna on its own, not in a shroud and without mmWave. Odd.
    • Drove out into the country today.  Dish stuck to my phone like glue. At least -120 rsrp. Likely only good for phone calls (should have tested.) It then switched to T-Mobile. Getting back on Dish was another issue. I am used to dragging out coverage so I expected a few miles, but had to drive at least 10 miles towards a Dish site. Airplane mode, which worked for Sprint, did nothing. Rebooting did nothing. Finally got it to change over about 2 miles from the site by manually setting the carrier to Dish then it had great reception. Sprint used to have a 15 minute timeout but I did not have the patience today.  Previously I did a speed test on Dish out in the country at the edge of Dish coverage. My speeds were 2g variety. Dish has really overclocked some of these sites. Seen rssp readings in the 50s. Would have called them boomer sites with Sprint but much  more common with Dish.
