Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

I noticed my speeds were faster than normal (NV-like) so I ran a speed test, this was the result:

I have an iPhone 4S, which doesn't have LTE. Sprint HSPA+? Lol.

 

I get fluke tests now and again on Speedtest.net

 

Theoretical max for EVDO-A is about 3100kbps on the downlink.

In Manhattan I get great 3G NV speeds. Amazing. I average 1.20 mbps down. Currently im in weehawken, NJ which is real close to the lincoln tunnel and my speeds are great and it's 8:01pm on a saturday and I am getting 1.50mbps down to 1.99mbps down. I think i saw in the maps that there is an upgrade 3G tower nearby. I love it. I am streaming youtube without buffering and browsing webpages at full speed. Sprint is really stepping it up.

My suggestion to you is to hush about Android Vs IOS immediatly before someone (cough) reports you for instigating another round of Android vs IOS (and iphone vs whatever). This thread has already been derailed before and I guarantee you that robert, when he returns tomorow, will not be happy and will be ban happy as everyone here has been warned again and again)

 

People. Please get back to reporting about network vision, your happiness or unhappiness with the rate of deployment or coverage/speeds/whatnot. Start going on sensorly trips or report new areas where LTE is being detected and whatnot that every other person in the thread in the market subforums talk about.

 

Jeez. Seriously guys, this is getting old.

 

Edit--- How's service around Manhattan (and surrounding co) and NYU?

    • Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.
    • 5G in the U.S. – Additional Mid-band Spectrum Driving Performance Gains T-Mobile holds on to it's lead in 5G Speed
    • Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.
    • Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.  
    • Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
