Loving it -- let's hear from some Sprint users. Just jumped ship from VZW shared data, so far so good. I usually get 3G indoors which has been fine 1mb down.

My sincere condolences to you for going from one of the best LTE carriers to the one with the most unreliable network

Not a single problem so far. Forgot to mention I'm only pay $103 a month with my wife's work discount for 2 iPhones. My bill on VZW after taxes was $178 a month.

If someone doesn't have unlimited LTE Verizon data or doesn't want to pay full price to maintain unlimited data and uses 6 plus GB data each month per line.

And if someone has sprint LTE available in their main area.

Than no condolences are needed for someone wanting to switch to sprint with unlimited LTE data on a slightly cheaper carrier with a subsidized $199 iPhone 5.
 
I ported from Verizon to Sprint, knowing I will need the unlimited data. Looks like not even a week and a lot of people are nearing their max data on AT&T and Verizon. Sprint is the cheapest of the three and I don't do voice calls much now.

And I do have LTE where I live.

I've been with AT&T for over a decade. Have grandfathered unlimited.

If I ever leave it will be for Sprint. I just hope they increase their coverage area a bit.

GL!
 
Im hearing LTE will be announced soon, and launched on October 16th for Los Angeles Market. Super stoked. I just need to get my iPhone Lol
 
How is LTE indoors? I read that it won't penetrate wall good because of the high frequency Sprint uses.
 
Averages 6/9 at the Atlanta airport where I work outside. This is after midnight. Same speed down in Newnan.

Seriously! I'm a long time Sprint user that doesnt even live in a LTE city so I'm sure I'm partially brainwashed, BUT I love sprint. My cell bill for 2 lines is $100 due to several loyalty discounts and I used FaceTime the other day and it looked great.

Obviously, having LTE would be nice but I just don't feel it's something that is worth an extra $75/mo for.
 
If your in an area with Sprint LTE they are a great value. I wouldn't hesitate to go with their LTE. Sure, it may not be as fast as VZW or AT&T but it's unlimited. I'll take unlimited 10mb over tiered 35mb any day. I'll keep my unlimited VZW as long as humanly possible though.
 
why does your wifi signal show when your doing a speedtest? thats wi-fi speed, not LTE, it should say LTE where the wifi logo is.
 
Hmm whats that mean Sprint LTE? I am in Los Angeles, we get slow 3G or the circle of shame. :confused:
