Sprint’s First LTE Phone To Be The HTC Jewel (Possible One X Variant?)

Sprint’s First LTE Phone To Be The HTC Jewel (Possible One X Variant?)

AT&T and T-Mobile certainly got some lovin’ from HTC at MWC this year. The One X, S and V smartphones each feature some pretty compelling features (hardware and software) that are sure to be a hit with customers once the devices hit later this year. But as is standard in the global mobile market, CDMA takes a backseat to the festivities. Such is the life of Sprint, an underdog in terms of raw subscribers and a technological ugly duckling. But there is hope....

T-Mobile Giving Up On HSPA+ 84 Mbps Network, Refocusing Efforts On 2013 LTE Launch Instead

T-Mobile Giving Up On HSPA+ 84 Mbps Network, Refocusing Efforts On 2013 LTE Launch Instead

Bittersweet news, T-Mobile fans. The carrier has announced at MWC that they are abandoning plans to rollout ridiculously fast 84 Mbps 3G HSPA+ service. In stead, the carrier is going to put all of their eggs in the LTE basket. The move isn’t really surprising. While the nation’s 4th largest carrier (by a long shot) has continued to ring higher and higher speeds out of a seemingly outdated cellular technology, LTE has far more leg room at this point. Also, the...

T-Mobile Fesses Up. LTE Network Coming In 2013

T-Mobile Fesses Up. LTE Network Coming In 2013

T-Mobile has long been the underdog, the ugly step child, the black sheep of the cellular world. Their coverage isn’t all that great outside of cities and speeds are pretty lackluster too. An acquisition with AT&T was supposed to change that. Thankfully it fell through. But now T-Mobile is facing what to do moving forward. Their 3 biggest competitors either already have a robust LTE network in place (Verizon) or are in the beginning stages of rollout (Sprint)....

HSPA+ “Multiflow” To Allow Multi-tower Connections For 2x The Speed, Half The Latency And Increased Network Efficiency

HSPA+ “Multiflow” To Allow Multi-tower Connections For 2x The Speed, Half The Latency And Increased Network Efficiency

HSPA networks could get an extended stay in relevancy if a new technology debuting at MWC can perform like Nokia Siemens Networks claims. The technology, “Multiflow”, essentially let’s an HSPA+ device talk to two towers simultaneously when on the edge of either towers’ reach. Doing this, according to Nokia Siemens, will allow for up to 2x the data speeds, cuts latency in half and is overall more efficient use of spectrum from either tower in use...
