Sprint 4G LTE Available 7/15/2012 in Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Kansas City and San Antonio
June 27, 2012 -
As summer begins to sizzle, Sprint CEO Dan Hesse today invited Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Kansas
City and San Antonio customers to harness the speed and power of 4G LTE
on July 15 and to further enjoy the top-rated customer satisfaction
experience among all national carriers, according to the 2012 American
Customer Satisfaction Index.
To better meet the growing voice and data demands of wireless customers,
Sprint is building an all-new, nationwide 3G and 4G LTE network through
the Network Vision program. This means that whether a Sprint customer is
using a smartphone to share a picture or to check the Web, Sprint 4G LTE
will make it faster. Coupling the speed of 4G LTE with the industry's
only truly unlimited data plan for smartphones makes Sprint the best
choice in wireless.* Additionally, the new network provides significant
enhancements to Sprint 3G service. Customers will experience better
signal strength, fewer dropped/blocked calls, faster data speeds,
expanded coverage and better overall performance as the improvements
roll out across the country.
"The performance of both the 4G LTE and improved 3G networks are
exceeding our expectations and we are pleased with the progress of the
entire Network Vision program," said Hesse.
With the launch on July 15, Sprint will have debuted 4G LTE to millions
of people in five major metropolitan areas with more market launches in
2012 to be announced later this year. By the end of 2013, Sprint expects
to have largely completed the build out of its all-new
4G LTE nationwide network - with an enhanced 3G network - covering
250 million people across the United States.
The Wireless Industry's Most Customer-Friendly Data Plans
In today's competitive wireless market, the value of unlimited has never
been more apparent. Sprint's Everything Data plan with Any Mobile,
AnytimeSM includes unlimited data, texting and calling to and
from any mobile phone in America while on the Sprint network, starting
at just $79.99 per month for smartphones.
Sprint continues the trend of delivering value to customers through its
portfolio of 4G LTE-capable devices and unlimited data experience with
Sprint Everything Data plans. Sprint has already launched five 4G
LTE-capable devices for less than $200 - HTC EVOTM 4G LTE ($199.99); LG
ViperTM 4G LTE ($99.99); Samsung Galaxy Nexus ($199.99); Samsung Galaxy S
III ($199.99 for 16GB version) and Sierra WirelessTM 4G LTE Tri-Fi
Hotspot, the nation's first to support 4G LTE, 4G WiMAX and 3G ($99.99)
(all pricing excludes taxes).
Over the past several years, Sprint has been working hard to deliver the
best customer experience. Recently, the American Customer Satisfaction
Index ranked Sprint No. 1 among all national carriers and most improved
in customer satisfaction, across all 47 industries, over the last four
years. Building an all-new network is the linchpin to make Sprint the
company customers want to do business with.
