You can call it a gimmick but facts are it is faster. I'm in Jacksonville and I can be anywhere in the city... And get lower speeds on 3g (which is called 4g or HSPA) than I do on my LTE.... And mind you Jacksonville is the largest city land mass wise in the contential US.... So our towers don't get as saturated with users like a New York City tower would....
Examples below. First is LTE next is just 3g (or 4g HSPA as it's called). I'm sorry but this is faster and my LTE usually always is. If my signal on LTE equals that of my HSPA in that area LTE trumps it every time.
So you are stating it's a gimmick.. Which you can do since if that's your opinion... Well it's your opinion... But fact wise LTE is faster technology than HSPA. As Kevin stated Sprint 3g and Sprint LTE is a huge example of this.. The difference is drastic.
