Some of us are still waiting for Sprint’s “any day now” Galaxy Nexus. The current Google reference phone is more than a neat bit of hardware — it represents Sprint’s first shift from a high-speed WiMax network to one based on LTE. While Wimax continues to work for those who picked up earlier 4G Sprint […]
Back in October, I reviewed the AT&T edition of the Samsung Galaxy S II. Overall, I loved the hardware, but was not happy with the data connectivity. While HSPA+ speeds were reached in my New Jersey home, a place where Sprint barely gets a connection at times, I see the exact opposite impact when I […]

We all know their iPhone exclusivity was going to end soon, but I found it almost comical how much AT&T wanted to advertise Microsoft’s rival OS so soon. Not that I blame them, Windows Phone is so surprisingly well […]
The Samsung Droid Charge is the hottest phone in Verizon’s current lineup. Or at least, it had better be, with a $300 price tag even with a contract. Even though I was anticipating a chance to play with this phone, which has a tremendous 4.3” display on a black slab and silver border, the build […]
LTE is the form of 4G that looks like the wave of the future for most of the world. At first, it appeared that the U.S. was doomed to repeat the mess of the 3G era, with LTE and WiMAX standing in for GSM and CDMA. That fiasco seems to have been averted, with Verizon […]
Although Sprint brought us the first 4G network on a national carrier, AT&T and Verizon’s choice to go with LTE as their 4G technology has made critics skeptical of Sprint’s early investment in WiMax.
