    SGS 3 doesnt support LTE on Tmobile?

    Is this true? I was hoping to get the SGS3 to somewhat future proof myself.

    Unfortunately it does not. Why they would have such a great phone only support 3G is mindblowing.

    Tmobiles front page shows the SGS 3 and states "The next big thing is here. Enhance your 4G experience." 2G < 3G < 4G < LTE

    Those titles are all marketing mumbo jumbo.

    Whatever they want to call it, it's not LTE.

    We have two providers here who operate on the same network (AWS which may be what Tmo calls 4G which is the same as 3G lol), which isn't LTE. They are 3G Phones, that will work on the other networks on 3G as well., but not on LTE. It's certainly a step backward from say how awesome the Industry Pioneer Galaxy Nexus was in being the first pentaband factory unlocked phone sold thru carriers.

    Let's be frank though, unless you're tethering, do you even NEED LTE on a phone? DON"T answer that! lol.

    I can get 15-20 Mb/s down and over 5Mb/s up on my SGS3. (And on my wife's Exhibit II as well.)

    You can call it whatever you want, but when a cell phone can substitute for cable modem service for an entire household (and the Exhibit II did, for five days), who cares if it's 3G or LTE or monkey spit. All that matters is results.
