Great for you. Makes me wonder what they see in your request that made them decide to ship one to you.  My request was much earlier and while I did not get a rejection, I did not get any other explanation of the status.

I believe AJ and Robert explained it best.  Sprint has some type of algorithm they use to help identify priority and needs.  Tim may be able to shed more light about the selection process.

I have not received a confirmation email either but at times Sprint sends the emails to my wife.  Hopefully, it just may "magically" show on my doorstep this week.

I looked at RootMetrics earlier today and see a handful of second half 2017 results.  Does anyone know which phone they are utilizing for this round of testing?

Interesting read

I would not think there are enough MB's deployed to make that much of a difference currently...

if it is only for phone capabilities, then go for the older model but if there are issues with vision, look for a 6 plus.  The larger screen will help.

Experiencing things with my father, he went from a flip phone to an Android about three years ago but at that time he only wanted to check the weather (for fishing) and make calls.  When he realized he could do so many other things with the phone, he is burning through data quickly.  He hardly uses his home computer anymore.  It is amazing to see how quickly they adapt to a smartphone.

One other thing with any phone you obtain and if it is available, make sure they are connected to wifi.  it will help in the long run.

HPUE is based on conducted power, not radiated power.  No iPhone yet is HPUE -- despite any EIRP >26 dBm.  And any EIRP >26 dBm without HPUE could jump to >29 dBm with HPUE.

Thanks AJ

I could well be incorrect with my logic but given that the iPhone 6 and 6S (and I assume the 7 has and the 7S will continue this trend) both had Band 41 EIRP levels that were >26dBm (HPUE Power Class 2), is it really a relevant point as to whether the iPhone 7S has or doesn't have HPUE?  It appears that the iPhone is already providing band 41 uplink performance that is superior to HPUE through positive antenna gain.

AJ, we need your expertise...

Has anyone applied on the first day and still not received a call yet? (like me)

 

I did receive an email after applying.

I applied about 10 days after.  Go the call on the 21st of July.

Send Sprint an email or call.  Do you remember what phone number you entered in the information?  Is there a chance it was entered incorrectly?

Latest rumors on the 8...

As we all know, everything is a rumor and speculation with Apple until it is released.  From items I have read, the 7S series will most likely not have ability to connect to HPUE.  With the high end iPhone that is rumored be released later, it may be HPUE capable but we will know when it hits the market.
