With the news that T-Mobile will be joining the LTE-age before the end of the month, CTO Neville Ray and some other T-Mobile executives are talking about the possibility of sending out a firmware update that would turn on the latent LTE radios inside the guts of the 5.5 inch phablet; the first city to receive T-Mobile's LTE signal will be Las Vegas...

HSPA+(high speed packet access)is 4g.Not LTE. Tmo nevered marketed it as LTE.Their is just as fast as Verizon's and faster a lil bit than ATT

Honestly with this news the Note 2 pretty much is the perfect phone. This is my first contract phone in over 4 years and I actually don't feel "jailed" to it for 20 months. I had the international Note 1 and its flaws (e.g. low speaker & earpiece volume) really left me unsatisfied. But I'm so happy with my Note 2 I might not need Phonearena anymore... jk I still love reading up on the new stuff.
