[T-Mobile] Best TMO LTE for the $$$Wondering if anyone knows which is the best TMO *LTE* phone that is the least expensive.
I plan on tethering with my Tablet. It can be windows or Android.
Anyone have any good experiences or suggestions?
TIA |

Samsungs seem to be a favorite for those I know who use T-Mobile. Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and Galaxy S4 |

Best and lest expensive that is probably impossible.
I just bought a Motorola Moto G LTE. It is inexpensive but has what I need. Be careful there are several Moto G version not all are LTE. |

I don't know the meaning of "best T-Mobile LTE phone", but most of the time, the more expensive, the better it is. I personally own the Samsung Galaxy Note 4, one of the only few phones that is compatible with Band 12, which T-Mobile will deploy soon. |

Band 12 phonesBand 12 Phones: Note 4, Note EDGE, ZTE Max, Nexus 6, Avant
Since tethering is metered, use HDMI out and get a bluetooth mouse and keyboard.
Also take a look at the Sony Xperia Z Ultra for a big bang for you buck if you don't need Band 12 any time soon.
As for me, 1700 mhz is everywhere I live, work and play inside and out so I am in no rush to make the jump to a band 12 device. |

I would like to mention Chromecast as well, although using cable is still one of the best methods to mirror your screen. I don't really get good signals in my house(even though I live in LA, maybe I live in a weird area), and most of the time I can't connect to LTE, I can only get 3G at 1900 MHz(PCS). I can only get around -95 to -105dBm most of the time, it's usable, but certainly not the best signal levels. 700 MHz(Band 12) will improve indoor LTE coverage in my case, but too bad Channel 51 is interfering it... |

Re: [T-Mobile] Best TMO LTE for the $$$I have a galaxy s4, if you plan to use its gps service then i'd say AVOID this phone at all cost.. Its gps isn't reliable.. Bounces here, then there, and oh wait, no your over here.. Basically you'll either die or get really really lost if you use the gps |

What I am really interested in is your experience with a low cost LTE TMO phone. Example: Low price, your experience with battery life, Signal issues, Call quality.. ect

Go to a phone spec site like gsmarena and compare phones.
The Motorola Moto G LTE has almost identical spec to the Samsung Avant but I think it has a better screen. |
