Two Verizon 3G tests, two LTE tests, and two Comcast wifi tests:

Wow, I realizedfrom this thread that my ATT iPhone 5 should show "LTE" and not "4G". I called ATT and it turns out that the phone was still listed as a iPhone 4S in their database. They fixed it and a little while later the phone shows "LTE". As someone else posted from NYC, the speeds aren't that great, about 12.75Mbps down. But its lightspeeds ahead from how it was before.

Speed is definitely variable. Fastest I've gotten so far is 37.93/13.12 in NYC on AT&T. Pretty impressive really and web surfing is silky smooth like on wifi.

Speedtest use A LOT of data on LTE for those of you with smaller data plans. May want to keep that in mind.

If seen my Android devices around 300 mb in just speed test when checking the data manager.

So don't blame LTE, you are basically maxing on your data of 15+ mb per second for 5-10 seconds. It's not a direct translation but like I mentioned I've seen it pretty damn high.

Seattle

In Seattle I'm seeing around 17/4 in my house, but over in Bellevue the numbers were funky with 12/17.

Was surprised to see LTE in Bellevue, since I thought it was only Seattle.

On 5th and Columbia I got as high as 54/17 but up in the tower 7/12.

Sprint has unlimited, although a lack of LTE for now. I think it's worth it to stay with them now.

I'm curious what their 3G speed is right now. I know there was an issue with the 4 and 4S that they couldn't figure out. I hope that's been resolved.
