I hit over 60 consistently.

troy14 · Sep 28, 2012, 08:33 PM

Well at least you can do voice/data at the same time :/

GenderFi · Sep 28, 2012, 08:34 PM

Yeah, I hit over 19230123908 constantly lol.

Ntombi · Sep 28, 2012, 08:39 PM

*sigh* it's not usually this bad, but still.

Ntombi · 09:49 PM

My LTE isn't always this horrible, but it's nowhere near as good as I was hoping.

This is around Long Beach.

It's because you're in SoCal.

You guys need to add your locations.

Jeremy81 · Sep 28, 2012, 08:50 PM

iPad/iPhone 5 tethering on Verizon LTE.

AlphaDogg · Sep 28, 2012, 09:07 PM

Damn AT&T doesn't have LTE anywhere in the entire state of CO--all the other major providers do.

Still better than my iPhone 3GS's HSPA 500ms latency 200Kb/s down and 50Kb/s up.

deadworlds · Sep 28, 2012, 09:08 PM

Modesto, CA, AT&T.

aznguyen316 · Sep 28, 2012, 09:09 PM

uploading videos etc to dropbox has been amazing on LTE. so much faster than home wifi at 2mpbs up... 15-20 mbps up is awesome.

MacKid1983 · Sep 28, 2012, 09:11 PM

LTE speeds in Hartford CT area...

PhoenixMac · Sep 28, 2012, 09:13 PM

If HSPA+ streams were a consistent 12mbps I would switch from unlimited vzw to unlimited at&t for $50 a month in a heartbeat, 12mbps is still faster than my home internet.

I get some pretty great DC-HSDPA in London,ON.

I get that same speed with 1 bar of LTE on Verizon. 2 bars and I'm already at double that speed. 3 bars and I'm nearing 30Mbps down. 4-5 bars and I get anywhere between 32-45Mbps. LTE what?

ipoddin · Sep 29, 2012, 10:54 AM

At LAX baby! Read it and weep!

mpossoff · Sep 29, 2012, 11:04 AM

We get good HSPA+ speeds in Philly so I keep LTE off most of the time to conserve battery.

Is LTE faster? Yes but not signigantly faster for me to be on it all the time. HSPA+ gets the job done well.

Well I guess not having a iphone 5 isn't a bad thing ... xD
though I'd probably get 20Mb/s+ in my area
