Sprint: No More WiMax Phones, Focusing on LTE
by Alexander Maxham on Jan 16, 2012 6 Comments">6
There was so much news last week at CES, there is still more news trickling down to us. Sprint said last week at CES that their focus is now on LTE and producing LTE devices, meaning they are done with WiMax. You might remember back in the spring of 2010, Sprint was the first to market a 4G device, the HTC EVO 4G, although it was WiMax 4G and not LTE 4G. Which as we now know WiMax didn’t pan out like the way Sprint wanted. Sprint is now in the process of migrating their WiMax coverage over to LTE …

by Alexander Maxham on Jan 10, 2012 0 Comments">0
Over the last couple of days we have seen a ton of Press releases, but it looks like we missed something important. Sprint slipped in some information with their Press Release of the Galaxy Nexus, and the LG Viper. Sprint says they have 15 LTE devices set to launch in 2012, on top of that it looks like they will be keeping unlimited data for their LTE network. Good news right? Now we did not hear anything about throttling, so they could be taking the T-Mobile route and giving you a cap, and once you hit that cap reducing your …
Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Data Issues Confirmed (Update: Back To Normal)
by Matthew Sabatini on Dec 28, 2011 0 Comments">0
After spending the whole day running constant LTE speed tests, today is a bit different. In places that normally have 4G coverage by Verizon, we are lucky to be getting any data connection at all on our Galaxy Nexus. 3G is working fine for the most part in Silicon Valley around the Googleplex, but the same cannot be said in other parts of the country. This is not the first time Verizon admitted to having data troubles. In fact, exactly a week ago today, Verizon’s 4G LTE network was having the same troubles like the ones today. But rest assured, …

Of course, yesterday, December 22nd, was the rumored date of release. However, the day has come and gone without any definitive word from Verizon or Motorola.

by Matthew Sabatini on Dec 11, 2011 0 Comments">0
For a while now, AT&T has been making some noise about their 4G network. And no, we’re no longer talking about their fake “4G” HSPA+ network. We are talking about big league connectivity, aka LTE (Long Term Evolution). On their website, AT&T states that they will cover over 70 million Americans and 15 cities by the end of 2011. John Stephens, the wireless provider’s CFO / SVP, announced at the UBS 39th Annual Global Media and Communications Conference that they are currently testing their LTE network in New York City. Although there is no official date set for the release …
Sprint LTE Set to Land in 2012 – New Phones On the Way Too
by Matthew Sabatini on Dec 11, 2011 1 Comments">1
Just recently, we wrote an article about all of the U.S. LTE wireless providers. It was easy to tell that Verizon had a firm grip on the LTE market in America. However, almost every other provider behind Verizon was either working on an LTE network, or building upon its current 4G network. However, Sprint, America’s third most popular wireless provier, was not working on an LTE network to our knowledge at the time of the article’s publication. Instead, Sprint had decided to lengthen their WiMAX deal with Clearwire. As soon as you think that Sprint is going to stay with …

LTE: Verizon Versus the Rest of the Pack
by Matthew Sabatini on Dec 04, 2011 5 Comments">5
As soon as you turn on your TV nowadays, chances are you are going to get blasted with tons of 4G or LTE commercials from all of the best wireless providers. Therefore, you are probably wondering which provider has the best 4G “LTE” network. First, we think it would be nice to define the terms “4G” and “LTE”: 4G: is the fourth generation of cellular wireless standards. It is a successor to the 3G and 2G families of standards. LTE: This is also known as “3GPP Long Term Evolution”. Because LTE does not comply with the 4G standards, it is …
December 1st is LG’s Exclusive Event – Is it the Nitro HD?
by Matthew Sabatini on Nov 26, 2011 0 Comments">0
LG has scheduled an “exclusive event” for December 1st in New York city. Much to everyone’s surprise, they did not release any information on the topic of this event. However, our best guess is that we will be seeing an announcement for the Nitro HD (P930). If this is true, December 1st will mark the day that LG releases their first smart phone with an HD display on Western shores. Back in May, Unwired View caught hold of an XML document that led us to believe we would be seeing LG release the Nitro HD. The device would feature Android …
The New HTC Rezound Sounds Extreme
by Lucian Armasu on Nov 14, 2011 5 Comments">5
HTC doesn’t have a lot of strong brand phones, like the iPhone or Galaxy S II, or even the Nexus, which is Google’s brand, and I believe that is hurting their potential. That’s especially true lately when they’ve been releasing phone after phone with little similarities between them. The Evo brand was pretty good, but it started to fade away, in part because of the reason mentioned before. But I think they have a new shot at this with the new HTC Rezound and its Dr. Dre Beats audio and headsets. They’ve put the Dr. Dre Beats headsets together with …

First we have a second, yes a second, Galaxy S II on AT&T. The Skyrocket looks pretty awesome with even more awesome specs. Which one reaches higher?
