I was curious on how well the lte is in Houston. I've done a search and haven't came up with much. I've looked at sensorly but don't put much weight in it and rather go by actual customer experience. I'm thinking about buying out of my contract or paying the etf since I have until July '13 until its over or upgrade in May.
I'm looking to move to straight talk's t mobile sim using a nexus 4 since there is 42mbps in Houston, unless Sprint's lte is pretty decent. What I consider as decent is better than wimax here. Wimax, even on the major highways, is spotty. My Evo 3d consistently cycles between 3g and wimax thus eating up my battery. I get one or two bars of wimax on my driveway but my bedroom twenty feet away I can't pick it up.
I'm tired of dealing with the slow 3g and pretty much never toggle wimax. Basically I want to know if Sprint lte is built out well along south and west loop 610, southwest freeway to midtown area 59, and along the beltway near bellaire. If lte still drops frequently, I don't want a repeat wimax experience and will migrate to T-Mobile's hspa+ coverage. Maybe I'll give sprint a try again when 800 and 2500 MHz lte is built out unless you guys say its pretty good now. Sorry for the long post/rant. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
