New Article from 9to5mac says the iPhone 5C which is said to support TDD-LTE is going to be delayed in China because of the long approval processes.

Guys...let's be respectful of people's choice of smartphone platform. iOS is a perfectly viable platform for many S4GRU members. There really isn't a better OS, there is just a better one for you.

That's just China. Apple times their FCC submissions properly to make sure that the device is released on time, and to make all necessary corrections so as to comply with the FCC. No need to worry.

I found this online. The article said that it cannot confirm. But looking at the LTE bands, it would appear that the 5S will not support 41. I can say that I am not surprised that it will not be tri-band LTE.

That was found to be a fake. I can't find who posted it, but they did a photo analysis and found discrepancies and confronted the person who made the photos and he confirmed that they were made in Illustrator. I'm looking for the article and will post when I find it.

So, Josh, since you never seemed to get above the low to midrange Android handsets, if Apple offers a midrange option in the next iPhone, are you going to jump on that?

I'm not sure yet. I may get both and use the 5C on my Sprint phone connect line and the 5S on my main line, but I may have to wait until January to upgrade on my Sprint Phone Connect line. I'll be jumping straight in on the 5S and selling my 5 to compensate for the difference over a new contract price. If I do get a 5C, it'll be blue.

The blue iPhone 5C will most definitely be sold out first I think, because most people I ask if they could get their iPhone any color they say Blue.

I heard the Blue iPod Touch sold faster than the rest when they were released last year.

People can have the iPhone in any color -- so long as it's black.

What are Sprint's upgrade policies about new phones if you haven't reached the two year mark yet?  I got my iPhone 5 last October with Sprint.

I don't know. I won't be getting mine until October when my school refund comes in, so hopefully they will allow outright buying.

If you have had your phone for one year and have been paying your bill on time you should have a early upgrade offer that will make it way cheaper than full price.

If that involves me trading in my current iPhone, then I'll pay full price. I can get more for my iPhone on eBay than trade in.

Josh, I'm not trying to stick my nose where it doesn't belong but, as your cyber friend, if by "school refund," you mean student loan money, be very careful with that sort of thing.

I don't think this requires a a trade in of any kind.

Yea, I've found Sprint to be very generous to long-term customers with accounts in good standing.

It actually does require the trade in or else the old device is marked stolen for the upgrade now program.

 

 

The way works at 12 months early is usually 225+upgrade price of phone - trade in value of old phone. So say the iPhone 5s comes out at 200 and the iPhone 5 trades in still at 200(right now it is 240 but obviously will go down ) it would cost 225 after trade in to upgrade.

In that case, Josh is right. He's pry better off selling his Apple device privately.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      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.

      T-Mobile LTE & Network Discussion V2

      By Dkoellerwx · Posted

      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.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      By dkyeager · Posted

      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.
