Schnickies?!? Lmao

Do you see Volte happening this year?

-________- Dang I have Verizon now and all of this good s**t is happening once I left lmao Sprint's data network is about to get LIT ???????????? See you in 2 years sprint

Or 3xCA I believe

I really hope they do something with the upload speeds though lol

I agree. Just like when Marcelo kept talking about Sprint's "Next Generation Network" and all of sudden Verizon used that phrase for their own marketing

Doesn't confirm anything but there's a chance Verizon might make the shift to TDD LTE for higher frequency spectrum. I'm not surprised if they do though. https://www.wirelessweek.com/news/2017/03/verizons-shamsunder-shares-insights-5g-trials-merits-tdd-and-virtualization-progress

Great info but all of these plans just sounds good on paper. I doubt they will execute. Not trying to be a negative Nancy but I'm being a realist. Hopefully they over deliver and under promise

That's good. Volte was a factor for me because I need it for my job. I was getting tired of the "it's in the pipeline" response lol

Lord smh lol

Yes Sprint's service was sufficient, and some areas it worked well and some areas it didn't but I'm happy I have Verizon. My experience has been amazing thus far. I love volte!!! It's crazy that Verizon and T-Mobile has the least spectrum but their data network is twice as good. I hope Sprint pulls through and lead the way with 5G. They have so much potential.

Looks like Shentel is testing Massive Mimo https://www.wirelessweek.com/news/2017/02/blue-danube-reveals-fdd-massive-mimo-trials-t-shentel

The everything data plans were the best plans ever!! They were so easy to sell too lol

Man those were the days. Lol. I still remember when Dish almost bought Sprint and clearwire.

From a 2013 post "Sprint disclosed in July that it plans to deploy Clearwire's 2.5 GHz spectrum using TD-LTE on all 38,000 of its planned Network Vision cell sites in a nationwide rollout. And, due to the weaker propagation characteristics of 2.5 GHz, Sprint will also deploy small cells and other sites beyond the 38,000 Network Vision sites. Previously, Sprint had said it would use Clearwire's spectrum as a "hotspot" LTE network to offload traffic in urban markets." http://www.fiercewireless.com/wireless/sprint-plans-to-use-2-5-ghz-spectrum-to-catch-up-to-verizon-at-t-lte

You know what I do too, I liked Marcelo in the beginning because he was a breath of fresh air however Hesse had a plan for Sprint. He made NV happen, and wanted to add 2.5 to every cell site. Don't get me wrong Marcelo is cool, but I feel he's Masa's lap dog.

Always thought Comcast covered the almost the whole country. Learn something new everyday

Hypothetically speaking, if Comcast and Sprint decided to merge, can that expedite Sprint's network roll out since Comcast does have fiber all over?

I hope Marcelo wakes up from his delusion pretty quick because a lot of people are leaving sprint for Verizon because of this new deal. Almost every post on Vzw's Reddit page says "left Sprint" "trying to leave Sprint" etc. Sprint has offered unlimited plans the longest, it' s their nitch, they can't let Verizon and others take that away from them.

I think that's 700,1900 and their base AWS. I was referring to AWS 3 (last incentive auction)

Have they deployed. AWS 3?

I decided to make the switch to verizon. It was a hard decision because ive been with Sprint for years but this Verizon deal was to good to give up. I may switch back to sprint in 2 years. Hopefully they lead the pack for 5G

I agree with all of this. I think they should keep the pricing for unlimited freedom the same, increase hotspot to 15gb, remove the other restrictions and make it available for new/existing customers But Sprint needs to make sure they EXCEED their network goals this year. At the end of the day it comes down to the network. VoLTE needs to come this year. No excuses

I feel like we're all traitors lol. I'm sure Marcelo is looking at these comments like https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/5f/56/7b/5f567b0a162453399f8af1cb564f8139.gif But in all seriousness, I'm curious to see how Masa will respond. Sprint's network plans sound promising (on paper) this year but we all know how they are when it comes to execution.

Dang I wish the iPhone 8 was coming out soon so I can go ahead and switch. If it does come out in September then hopefully Sprint shows drastic improvement (densified network and VoLTE) otherwise I'm switching to Vzw. I always wanted to switch but I never did because they didn't have unlimited.
