The carrier should complete the commercial deployment of its fourth-generation network by the end of 2013.
Per Sprint’s Network Vision, its 4G LTE is in 49 markets now, with implementation under way in hundreds more. In the coming months, nearly 150 markets should see an official LTE launch.
In addition to LTE news, Sprint also said today its 3G network will see some enhancements, with improvements now available to customers in Baltimore, Boston, Los Angeles, New York Washington, D.C. and other metropolitan markets.
