- Thread starter lmsomb
- Start date
If I had it it would be faster than my wifi also sprints 3G is crap.

'Cause 3g speeds suck on sprint? 4g is descent. If we were getting 1.5m 3g connections I wouldn't sweat it.
I get 5Mbs when 4G is good. Downloads are super fast. Don't get that spinning circle for so long. Can't wait for LTE.

By the way I live in california. Highest 4g speeds I've experienced are close to 8mbps

Lol I don't even use 4G. Haven't used it since I got the Epic on release date.

That's not what the 10$ is for... its for premium data... every data phone has it. Least android phones ... from my knowledge.

I think I'm gonna set my phone to 24/7 roam on verizon to get my $10 worth then.
Not important to me. Neither is 3g for that matter. I spend 90% of the day within reach of wifi. And when I'm out and about, I don't mind the slow 3g speeds (500k). I don't do anything on my phone that is bandwidth intensive.

Actually the first month after the Epic's release date, Sprint store sales reps were telling customers the additional $10 was specifically for either using 4G or to bring 4G to your area within the next 6 months. That's the only reason I want 4G, the company allowed a huge amount of reps to sell the phone with that sales pitch. To try and quell the angst, Sprint implemented the charge across all "smart devices".
Closest 4G area is ~400mi away from me.
4G area is pointless in my area. I've rarely ever gotten it, and all it does is drain battery anyway. I'm curious to see how good LTE will be, and if it'll actually be in my area for once.
Wink wink. . . . nudge nudge. We all know the 10 dollars is for 4g no matter what Sprint calls it now. It ABSOLUTELY was for 4g service in the beginning before everyone complained and Sprint decided to just make everyone pay the fee, as the only phones that had to pay were 4g phones.
Ummm...cause it's fast. Being able to stream youtube, internet radio and HBO at my work desk is kind of awesome. Hope LTE is even better, and just as unlimited.
I get 4g everywhere now
Its almost been 2 years I have had a 4g phone and finally I have 4g where I need it

Then Sprint changed it to an overall premium data charge for anything they consider a true smartphone. Sprint can change it to whatever they want and they did it because they are losing money and trying to build a larger and better 3g and 4g network for their customers. They also did it because of the excess bandwith smartphones use even on their 3g network as they become faster and more data hungry, as well as their customers. How many of you pay for your tethering?
