    Neither Sprint or Verizon support VoLTE. If they did it would work just fine. From what I understand this is something they could fix with a software upgrade on their network, but most of this article is beyond me:

    It's "not yet possible" to do side-by-side CDMA voice and LTE data on a "single-radio" design like the iPhone 5, she says. That's technically true, although it may be a case of Apple wanting to keep hardware differences to a minimum between CDMA and GSM users. AnandTech founder Anand Lal Shimpi tells the New York Times that Verizon phones like the Galaxy S III, which don't have this limit, follow a different approach: where Apple uses a second antenna to improve overall reception for a single connection, Samsung and other phone makers use theirs to keep both data and voice flowing in harmony.

    My bad, I thought there was an additional Europe only CDMA model. Too many product ID's to keep up with tbh, and more appearing in SAP every day

    I tend to like my perspective moreso than most because, well, I know what I like and what I'm capable of when it comes to phone and phone technology. I was a staunch Apple fanboi for a good 4 years and there was a point where I'd defend the cultish manner in which I supported Apple until I was blue in the face. However, I made the switch to the Droid-based market and have been pretty much an easy convert. But it wasn't always that way as my ONE X was a hard learn and it took me a while to disengage my apple knowhow and become more knowledgeable about the ONE X.

    I guess after watching the press conference and seeing all the specs that have been upgraded and added, I don't see myself heading back to the Cuppertino behemoth. Alas, though, I have grown wiser in that as a consumer, you have the ability to chose between the Apple and the Robot.

    lolTunisian Home Wrecker



    I wasn't too impressed with how my iphone 4 was behaving towards the end of its life, but it has definitely become a great iPod in that I don't have to worry about zapping the ONE X battery--which, to my surprise, has been a ton better with the latest patch.
