  1. They have 20Mhz for download, 20Mhz for upload. It's because people mainly use download that it is drastically lower (congestion). The only fix is for T-Mobile to add more capacity whether it be PCS (Band 2) or add more towers in the area.
  2. Congestion. Tons of people using T-Mobile in your area. It's a dead giveaway when upload is dramatically higher than download. Since most people use download a lot more often than upload.
  3. With this, Sprint can roll out 15x15 on B25 in some markets. Not bad.
  4. With 20mhz of bandwidth, that's 4x higher than Sprints B25 in your area. If T-Mobile site density is good in El Paso, then they should be a good choice. And according to Spectrum gateway, it looks like T-Mobile may have B12 active there once channels vacate the spectrum. I wonder what the progress is on the B26 vacancy for Sprint. http://ae2.spectrumgateway.com/t-mobile-700-mhz-spectrum.html
  5. 600 won't be available until 2018/2019. Meanwhile 700 can be rolled out this year. That's the main reason they're focusing on 700 expansion.
  6. Looks like it may actually work on all US carriers (doesn't mean they'll activate it.) Of course, these are rumors but if it holds true, it'll have all of the LTE bands for each carrier and CDMA compatibility. Specs Type: Phone Model: Mi5 Manufacturer: Xiaomi Dimensions: 144.55 x 69.2 x 7.25 mm Weight: 129 g Battery size: 3000 mAh Screen size: 5.16 in Display technology: LCD Screen: 1920 x 1080 pixels (427 ppi) Front camera: 4 megapixels Rear camera: 16 megapixels Flashlight: LED Android version: 6.0 - Marshmallow User interface: MIUI RAM: 4 GB/3 GB Internal storage: 32/64/128 GB Removable storage: Not available Chipset: Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 Number of cores: 4 Max. clock speed: 2.15 GHz Connectivity: HSPA, LTE, NFC, Dual-SIM , Bluetooth
  7. These will likely be markets that T-Mobile plan on covering with the 600Mhz licenses.
  8. I'll probably pick this up once it becomes cheaper. But from initial reports, the battery is pretty good with it. Not sure which variant this one is between the S7 or Edge, but I believe it's a good indicator of what it is capable of doing.
  9. You need to have the account holder present to do any upgrades.
  10. Still serves the same purpose. Sprint will only activate Sprint models, even if you manually flash different firmware for the carrier.
  11. Looks like there are numerous versions for each carrier. I guess no universal device for the US carriers. What a shame.
  12. $199 for regular 32GB. $299 for Edge 32GB.
  13. T-Mobile appears to be having nationwide calling issues. [emoji57]
  14. Wow, no rumor thread and there's leaks coming out for this device, too. It appears HTC is not very popular. Anyways, I found this online, claiming it's the front of an HTC One M10. Looks like an HTC Iphone S7.
  15. Will need to watch how small cells benefit Sprint. If this is the work of small cells then Sprint should also see significant improvement in the coming months.
  16. I'm sure they made great strides but why does RMs claim Sprint's national rating worse this year than last year? Looks like everyone else got worse too, except Verizon.
  17. All I have to go on is looks for now. Until the specs are announced, I don't believe we can base assumptions off the rumors.
  18. So, it looks pretty but it is the same design as the S6/Note 5. Actually, it is the Note 5, just smaller. I'm going to hold out and see what HTC has in store for its M10. Although I've seen the leaks it may not be what it actually looks like and I'm open to any device that has the Snapdragon 820.
  19. If some phones supported Svdo and SvLTE, why doesn't Sprint just include that (two radio paths for 1x and LTE)? Seems like a better option since VoLTE w/ CDMA fallback is not one.
  20. T-Mobile's management team really knows what they're doing. In terms of attracting customers, retaining customers, network upgrades, and still managing to pull in a profit. I'm still dumbfounded that Sprint burns through so much cash when not too long ago they had a high ARPU. Where's all of that money going?!
  21. Personally I will probably avoid this device since I have had bad experiences with LG devices (G2, G3, and G4). The devices lose their value way too quick and I feel that they are built on cheap materials. These leaked pictures make the device look cheap.
