kg4icg Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 At any given moment, how many sectors are you hooked up to on your cellphone? This pic is live data, what I'm currently hooked up to. It isn't a file of what I've connected to. It is what I'm connected to at any given moment on my G7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be cool if it were B25+B26 in CA, but will be tough to verify on G7 considering LG engineering screens are borked. But I do believe those are neighboring sites on the list. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nexgencpu Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 M-MIMO is truly an awesome way to maximize spectral efficiency.. Using nearly 700mbs of backhaul to feed 16 simultaneous connections on only 20Mhz of B41 spectrum. In the screen shots on the post you can make out that each of the 16 devices are averaging around 40mbs. https://twitter.com/sawilkus/status/1040021167761842176 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can win some speed studies it’ll definitely give them good attention and exposure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Substantial price hikes too. I got a mailer about this a couple months back and the price for my phone was going up a few dollars a month. Have to remember to cancel before the new prices kick in.

The $29 screen replacement is a big perk. My girl has a pixel 2xl with a cracked lcd, they are charging 190 to replace it. Grrr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already paying $26 a month for two S9+'s, it will probably be cheaper to repair the phones myself if prices go up. Used to be $9 or $10 a month, even AT&T for the same plan is like $8 per line for the same coverage. If prices keep going up it will be cheaper to go back to AT&T. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does ATT replace screens under the normal protection and with no deductible? if so that's pretty great. Because repairing AMOLED screens on a high end device is pretty expensive, far outstripping the cost of the actual monthly charge. Also, my personal trick is to keep some sort of protection for the first six months after purchasing the device while the cost is pretty high. After six months the price for repair is no longer as expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sprint and many other companies are generally working against old data about their competitors rather than projecting where they will be at a future point in time (at least in their public statements).

Terrell352 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 The Sprint Unlimited Premium plan says Full HD streaming but from my findings its uncapped. I was surprised to see the network automatically pushing me to 1440p 60fps when it can. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that by buddy has one of the freedom plans and his audio does skip on occasion in places where congestion or his phone drops to B26 is probably a problem.
