don't blame the messenger because t-mobile is faster than sprint, i just report what i know ;). and who said i couldn't make calls? let's get back on topic about being charged more for the same service. i'm glad you're happy with your provider, i'm not and left...period :). i think alot of you have evos or epics and are glad that everyone has to pay now instead of just the fandroids, and you guys are trying to justify it any way you can. i showed you guys that t-mobile RIGHT NOW, has faster speeds than sprint and doesn't charge extra for it...but that's just not good enough for this bunch. this whole thing has had me laughing for hours now :)!

I understand that in some cases tmo is faster but 1 picture showing speed comparisons isn't the whole picture. I don't want to get into it but a good proof of speed would be an article from a consumer agency that tested the signal coverage and speed in different areas. Not just in one like in your case. If tmo is faster for you where you live then thats great, but there is a bigger picture. All I can say is I'm glad tmo is good for you but when it comes to price comparison, even with the $10 increase sprint has better prices. And I am not saying that just to say it or start a war of words, I'm going off from a consumer reports article and a direct comparison of features and plans.

I agree. If your in a good T-mobile coverage area they may be a better option.
But if your like 80% of the United States your not covered by Even 3G tMobile service!

Seriously? What year is this that you have to stand outside to use that super duper smart phone you got?



And that's all well and good if you never leave where you are seeing your speeds. Personally, I'll pay the same amount and have better coverage indoors while everyone else is outside or dropping calls :mrgreen:

I'm a little confused about this. Me and my wife have two evo's already paying the $10 fee for both. So say if we upgrade later on in the year to say the evo2, will there be two separate fees? One for a smart phone and one for 4g? So it will be $20 added per line on top of the plan. I currently pay $149.99 with Sprint, on T-Mobile's site the best I can get is $139.99 with half the minutes. Anyone know of any way to get it cheaper?

You're crazy if you don't think anyone has ever had trouble with Sprint coverage indoors, anywhere. T-Mobile actually has way better 4G coverage than Sprint, both indoor and outdoor.

Also, Sprint is doing away with yearly upgrades.

Something that hasn't been brought up is T-Mobile has significantly cheaper plans than what is listed on their website. You have to call or go to a store to get those plans though and you also have to pay full retail for the phone. But with Sprint getting rid of the yearly upgrade it probably comes out to be way cheaper than Sprint.
