New Windows Phone for Sprint by LG hits FCC

It looks like we may have 2 Windows Phones coming out this year by Sprint. One of them has been confirmed by Robert and the team. This other one was yesterday's news but apparently it hit the FCC again yesterday. This phone the LG LS831 (not the official model name but its codename) apparently hit the FCC in Oct 2011 previously but now is being retested by the FCC for whatever reason. This phone doesn't appear to have LTE capability but it does have 800 MHz CDMA support.

 

What do you guys think? Are you guys excited to see Sprint bring more interest to Windows Phone and to attract those customers? I for one are happy about this for those Windows Phone fans and even though I don't own a Windows Phone, I am glad that they are trying to catch up to AT&T in providing more Windows Phone options besides just the HTC Arrive.

    • Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but back patience.      
    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
    • 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!
