AT&T Fires Up 850MHz 3G In Atlanta
Some difference
I have noticed a small difference thus far in college park...My father stated his 3g at home where it was always crappy is better than his edge in douglasville ..I do know that yesterday a coworker dropped 2 calls on his att 3g phone..well see today when i drive around downtown connector and try talking during peak hrs on the interstate where i get the bulk of my drops..up to this point sprint drops fewer calls than att thats bad
any updates? how did that drive go?

add more 1900 umts instead!!
there's more phones with 1900 umts than 850 umts.
lots of phones have 900/1900/2100 umts 3G.
pharos 137 -1700/1900/2100 hsdpa
sony x1i -900/1900/2100 hsdpa
asus p835 -900/1900/2100 hsdpa

...
so basically phones noone ever heard of, I think my grandfather has a sony x1i 🙄 🤣
Better to balance out the usable spectrum and fill in the holes than to have it all on the 2ndary spectrum
Hmm.... isnt the 900MHz the same as the 850 band they just improved or are improving?
...
All AT&T 3G phones have WCDMA 850. AT&T picks what 3G phones it wants to offer directly, and the manufacturer adds WCDMA 850. It's never a problem; it doesn't limit AT&T's phone selection.
You're talking about unlocked phones. AT&T is never ...

Iowa would probably have to wait until long after Alltel divestitures are done (if that includes this market)
You were VERY excited.

Only 5 years behind Sprint and VZW? 🙄
Like Sprint matters and they don't use 850 anyway. That's why they have ****ty indoor coverage. Dropped calls galore
