Sprint has upgraded their LTE network in New York City to LTE Advanced, paving the way for their 5G launch next year. While they are not ready to launch 5G yet, the improvements they’re making to the 4G LTE network will make the switch to 5G easier. “Massive MIMO … dramatically improves the capacity of Sprint’s LTE Advanced network with equipment that is software upgradable to 5G,” the carrier said.
“With regards to the 5G plans, we are very well on track,” Saw said at the start of November.
And in the meantime, New York will enjoy the faster speeds that the LTE Advanced network can provide, making it the fastest 4G city in the country.
