To 4G or not to 4G? That’s the question currently being marketed to consumers in TV ads and big billboards across the country. And, at least at this stage of the game, it’s the wrong one to be asking.
Survey results from Retrevo take a look at 4G perceptions among potential customers. The conclusion? Many people who own iPhones, …
AT&T is still working to get its 4G LTE network online, but has gone ahead and announced its first two LTE devices anyway.
AT&T’s LTE network will launch this summer with a USB stick called the Momentum 4G and a portable Wi-Fi hotspot called the Elevate 4G. The USB stick will cost $50 with a two-year contract and the mobile hotspot, …
AT&T will begin selling the 4.5-inch Samsung Infuse 4G Android smartphone on May 15th for $200 with a two-year contract. Aside from the phone’s massive screen, AT&T is pitching the device as “the nation’s thinnest 4G smartphone at 8.99mm at its thinnest.” That’s around 0.35 inches.
The phone runs Android 2.2 and features a …
AT&T is finally making good on its promise to enable 4G uploads for Motorola’s Atrix 4G.
For reasons not entirely clear, AT&T was holding back upload speeds on the powerful smartphone, and was doing the same for HTC’s Inspire 4G. Although both phones are are capable of High-Speed Uplink Packet Access, or HSUPA, uploads were handled …
I’ll admit to being skeptical about T-Mobile’s G-Slate Android tablet at first.
I’m not big on this idea of selling tablets through wireless carriers, so when I heard the tablet would cost $750 unless purchased with a two-year service agreement, I didn’t have high hopes for it.
As it turns out, I actually like this tablet …
For weeks, AT&T customers have grumbled about slow uploads on their supposedly super-fast phones, the Motorola Atrix 4G and HTC Inspire 4G. Now, the carrier’s saying upload speeds will be crippled until some time in April.
The issue lies with High-Speed Uplink Packet Access, or HSUPA, a data transfer protocol capable of 5.5 Mbps …

How many hotspots do you use on a regular or semi-regular basis? At this point in my wanderings I’ve amassed so many Wi-Fi hotspot log-ins that I don’t really remember them all–to the point where I try to create new accounts for services that I already have …
Magenta has decidedly to plug on right along despite being swallowed whole by AT&T. It’s just a tad anticlimactic given this weekend’s big news, but T-Mobile announced yesterday they are unveiling 42 Mbps HSPA+ broadband service in three cities, and of course, a phone along to go with it.
To complement its newfangled network, they …
Last year, T-Mobile axed the Sidekick. But never fear, the phone is coming back, in better and badder shape than ever.
It seems like our report in January was spot on: we mentioned the Sidekick was coming back, that it would be 4G, and that it would also launch in the first half of the year. By golly, it’s all of those things and …
The HTC Inspire 4G is a good Android phone with a great price tag that leverages AT&T’s newly-enhanced network speeds. I didn’t find the so-called “4G” speeds to be mind-blowing here in Boston where I live—most of the time they were only marginally faster than 3G, if at all—but the technology is still being rolled out on AT&T’s end, …
During a speech at Northern Michigan University in Marquette, Mich., President Obama outlined a plan to bring 4G technology to 98% of American households by 2016.
According to an official White House statement, the plan “will enable businesses to grow faster, students to learn more, and public safety officials to access …
Whoopsie daisies. One of Best Buy’s stores unwittingly posted some product availability dates on Facebook that shouldn’t have been made public yet, as captured in the above image by DroidLife. All are Verizon products and only one—the iPhone 4—had its release date known previously.
I saw it with my own eyes this morning and left …
