Re: Is this on 800Mhz band? All their current LTE phone right now don't support 800mhz LTE... I really doubt the current LTE phone will be able to use 800mhz when that get rolled out  |

| Yeah, that does suck but most people who care about those things upgrade phones often anyway. |

The EVOLTE and the GS3 do have the 800Mhz bands.
Even My old EVO3d supported the 800 Mhz band, plus they did have one other last year as well.

| All of the phones you've listed support ESMR 800 for CDMA 1xA. |

I clearly stated "800mhz LTE"
LTE using 800mhz, not CDMA 800. different Tech, CDMA for voice, LTE is the new 4G
EVO3D doesn't even support LTE, it uses WiMax (I'm using a Evo 3D)
AFAIK EVOLTE & GS3 support 1900mhz LTE only, and don't support 800mhz LTE |

| LTE on 800Mhz hasn't been approved yet, expected later this year. But at least new gen phones will get improved voice/3G coverage when Sprint starts 800 rollout. Would think 800 LTE phones will start to appear early next year. |

So if I understand this right why would anyone want to get today's Sprint LTE phone if in the next year they will need to get a new phone. They will have to wait close to their two year contract date or early upgrade? |
|
| Yeah, newest phones will get 800/1900 voice/3G and 1900 LTE since LTE/800 isn't approved yet. |
