T-Mobile Speeds in NYC

[JHBThree]

I just picked up a N4 on t-mobile in NYC as well... yesterday was my 1st full day. In the morning the connection was blazing fast and at around 11am it became unusable. If this persists, i'm going to have to ditch t-mobile and go w/ at&t. I'll see how it is today, but yesterday was unbearable.

Probably a mixture of network load being in NYC, and your handset not actually being certified for LTE. Its missing some parts that would make sure the signal is best.

LTE is not available yet in NYC. However, I find their 4G coverage pretty good in NYC.

Sprint has LTE in nyc

Lol how are you guys getting these speeds? I picked up an HTC One on T-Mobile yesterday in NYC. It's probably going back this week. In my office in midtown at the window, the highest I got was 1.1mbps, when I even get a connection.

I was really hoping T-Mobile would be a valid alternative to AT&T but I still see lots of dead spots in Manhattan. I mean I've dropped down to Edge a few times already and right now my phone is sitting on GPRS!

I'm surprised at your issues. I have the N4 and get GREAT service in NYC. What part of the city are you in?

Just ran this speed test.

210 pm on a Thurs afternoon. I'm in midtown btwn 3rd ave and lex. Indoors on the 8th for approx 10 feet from the window.

So far I notice that data speeds are good until around 930 am. During midday (like now) it's pretty unbearable.

Yeah I took the plunge the other day and left sprint for T-Mobile. I'm on the prepaid 70$ unlimited everything plan and I should've done this months ago.
