Sprint details LTE network expansion, 100 new markets to be covered within months
Right after its official launch, the Sprint LTE wireless network was available only in 15 cities across the U.S., and whoever had an LTE capable smartphone had a bit of a hard time connecting to it due to spotty coverage. That is bound to change in the near future, however, as the carrier is busy expanding its LTE network, which should go live in 100 new markets within the following months.
Some of the metropolitan areas, which Sprint is planning on covering with 4G LTE goodness soon, include Boston, Charlotte, Chicago, Indianapolis, Los Angeles, Miami, Nashville, New Orleans and many more. Feel free to go through the list below and see whether your area is included. In the official press release, Sprint reiterates its expectations to have completed its nationwide 4G LTE rollout by the end of 2013.
