T-Mobile announced on Thursday that tests showed that an unlocked Apple iPhone 4S running over the carrier's upgraded 1900MHz pipeline, had 70% faster download speeds than the Apple iPhone 4S running on AT&T's network. The comparison featured the carrier's Unlimited Talk, Text and Data plan against AT&T Unlimited Talk, Text, and 3GB Smartphone Data plan. T-Mobile Chief Technical Officer, Neville Ray, pointed out on the carrier's blog that Apple iPhone users can save $50 a month over AT&T by bringing their unlocked iPhone to T-Mobile, and get a bump in speed as well.
