There a re NUMEROUS threads and posts about the difference in speed on 3G, averaging close to double the speed.
I have posted that 4G is now the LEAST important reason to get this phone, in fact, I don't care if I EVER use it for speed, though maybe for date and voice at the same time. 4G went WAY DOWN in my book of reasons to have this phone, after using it for a week against my TP2.
Boo Boo also makes it hard to give good advice to because of her/his sardonic entries as to type of phone and carrier.

Agreed... The 4g is just a differentiator for this phone and Sprint to stand out. And once the 4g network is mature and coverage is vast 4g will be a standard. Sprint wanted to be the first carrier in the US with 4g service and a 4g phone and honestly that is a big reason I stick with them. I like the fact that they have balls even though this whole 4g thing could likely backfire on them. The 4g for me is just like having a world phone. I am only gonna use it a maybe once or twice in the lifetime of this phone (non 4g area here and I doubt we will get it before end of 2011 or 2012, New Orleans always gets the crap end of the stick)
