Unlocked Apple iPhone units can test T-Mobile's 1900MHz 4G HSPA+ network at WWDC

Hahaha!!! Only in America would anybody consider calling HSPA+ 4G!

Ummm T-Mobile's "HSPA+ 42" gives speeds of 20-28mbps , which is on par with LTE. More reliable and cheaper.

That's like saying a Golf GTI is a supercar because it can go 250KPH.

HSPA+ scrapes the bottom of LTE. While a useful technology in it's own right, it really shouldn't be called 4G!

Thank goodness the rest of the world agrees!

"T-Mobile, America's Largest 3.5G Network."

Does that sounds better to you? Say what you want because I'm saving over $40 a month and I'm getting speeds comparable to LTE.

Have fun over paying.

I like how I get three thumbs down even through:

1) I'm an Android fan
2) I have T-Mobile
3) Stating a fact due to people ALWAYS requesting the iPhone for T-Mobile.

supporting iPhones on their network is not the same thing as selling iPhones for apple. That way T-Mobile keeps all the money. Besides I had other att phones working on T-Mobile frequencies nothing new here.
