Any sprint users have the 6P? How does it do on the sprint network? I'm on a HTC one m8 now and it runs great, just wondering how the 6P will do. Thanks in advance.

Works great for me. I find I have better reception than I did with my moto nexus 6.

I have a Nexus 6p on Project Fi (which mostly utilizes Sprint's network in my area) and it works great.

I use my on Sprint as well, and I also come from the M8. I find it better performer with sprints network and it also supports CA, where active blazing speeds!!!

After dealing with the admittedly pleasant, but clueless, Sprint employees while getting sim card and phone set up, i have had no problems with the network....Other than the usual problems with weird dead spots in my town.

Thx for the info puch96 :), I was just wondering how good Huawei radios were. From all the replies seems like they are pretty good. Also what is CA that it supports? Sorry for my ignorance on the subject:eek:

Went through a merry-go-round with the [removed by mod] Sprint idiots to get the proper nano-sim card.
Had a Galaxy 6 and I don't miss the Sprint and especially the Samsung bloatware.
Sprint reception sucks as always and will dump them for Project Fi whereT-Mobile will pick-up the slack for Sprint.
Why does Sprint exist?

Because they still have better coverage than T-Mobile. Network isn't as fast, but it's more dependable.

CA stands for Carrier Aggregation. Once Sprint spark is enabled, meaning band 25,26 and 41, CA is an additional feature that enables Band 41 by allocating multiple spectrum channels which significantly increases bandwidth. In my town, my M8 used to I get around 50 mbps down speed at best in certain locations where my N6p utilizes CA and got me around 130mbps down speed around the same location. If Sprint has CA in your area, the N6p, or any newer phone from 2015 for that matter would be able to take advantage of this feature.
