hmm sprint or att?

i checked the att 3g speeds at my house.. and i was super extra shocked!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i get 1.8 mbps on att i currently have sprint here is a comparison....
First Test
Sprint 3G EVO
0.64
ATT 3G Iphone
1.81 MBPS Woooooooooooooow!!!!!!!

Second Test

Sprint 4G
2.39
ATT 3G
1.74


now my question is am i getting those speeds because of the iphone?? eventhough im getting those speed on att it does not look like the iphone is faster then my evo 4g and they are both on 3g ..
just to make it clear i would never switch to att, horrible customer service

Re: hmm sprint or att?

I am getting anywhere from 2.4 mbps to 5.4 mbps on ATT with my iphone. With Sprint, I had crappy speed. Overall, I've been very happy with ATT's speed and coverage, I have no regrets.

Re: hmm sprint or att?

It boils down to your area..but overall AT&T has been advancing up the GSM tech while sprint has stopped at Rev A and just went straight for Wimax...by the 3G speed in your area though id say the tower is a Rev 0...

Overall though if you look at the latency of your 4G connection and your 3G (whether sprint or AT&T) you will see a world of difference...
