Coming from a galaxy nexus which had kinda meh 4G speeds, my 4G speeds on the N3 are insane.
I take my son to/from school every day and it's only about 3 minutes down the road. When I'm there waiting to pick him up in the afternoons I've been doing some speed tests. In that specific location I've been getting crazy speed readings. I tried a few diff servers with similar results. There must be a tower literally right there.
These are my two fastest results. The faster result is about 7 MEGABYTES per sec. That's pretty crazy. I pay $39/month for my home cable broadband, and that's only 10 Mbps, which is only about 1 MB/s. lol, sad.
It's not a false reading either. Just to confirm I downloaded a few apps, and sure enough a 13MB app downloaded in about 2 seconds.
Anyone else getting speeds like this??
Back before LTE was overloaded I got speeds like that. The one below is my fastest of all time. Just waiting for AWS to roll out now.

Here's what I'm getting
Back when I got my first 4g phone I got something like 40up 60down at SEATAC airport. About 40 and 40 at denver airport. Had to run the test a few times before I believed I was actually getting those speeds. Which brings up the interesting point of data caps and just how stupidly fast you can pass them with these speeds -_-
Eh, Speedtest timed out trying to find a server in downtown San Francisco. Is that the apps' fault or is something else awry?
Finally connected: 1.01 mbps down, .08 mpbs up.
Called the local corporate store in downtown SF, their service department is booked solid for the whole day...I wonder why.
New Orleans not bad and unlimited

I can get 10-12 here in Elk Grove Village
10-12Dn 2-4 up around Portland OR pretty consistantly
Sitting in a building across the street from the Sprint office here in Itasca (I-290 & Thorndale Ave.), top floor:
2750k down, 750k up
I set up a wireless router off the office LAN and use that instead, in addition to using the 18mbps U-Verse Wi-Fi at home (live on the south side of Chicago), cause the 4G has left me feeling a little less than enthusiastic. Yeah, the speed is better than (for the most part) 3G, but I hate seeing all the T-Mobile goons coming up to me with their 12-15mbps numbers.
in IL here pretty much all along lake cook road gets fantastic 4g from chicago all the way out to algonquin (where the road ends)

I travel often to remote locations. I must say, some pretty random cities/towns have lte coverage. I personally live in the ny metropolitan area and in my home I only get like 4 Mbps down on lte. In detroit (a ghost town)I got almost 30, in aurora ohio I was getting 24 down, in summerville sc I was also getting about 24 down. It kind of upsets me that I live in a metropolis with either a crowded 4g network or just plain slow. There are areas in the ny area where I get really fast connection speeds. Not in my house though.

Do you know if network vision has rolled out to you yet?
Just got 2400 in North Dallass (Plano) but at 5 am so..

Very impressive! I can be quite patient with the LTE rollout if 3G speeds are that good.

Hopefully this will shut up the damn pessimistic low-data-speeds n00bies about Sprint's network never amounting to anything...
wait... who am I kidding
Mine varies a lot, even in the same location. Right now I am pulling around 500 kbps down and 100 kbps up each test,
Five minutes ago I was getting to 1.2 - 1.5 mbps down, 200 - 250 kbps up

I'm still getting miserable speeds in central Minnesota.
im in south florida, a huge market, and sometimes in the middle of the day i cant get more than .15 kbps. absolutely atrocious. saw pictures of NV towers starting to pop up in south Miami.
In Philly with my OG Evo yesterday I was getting 1.7 mbps down, ~1 mpbs up on 3G. Activated my LTEVO today and was getting between 20 kpbs - 150 kbps down and 200-500 kbps up for a few hours. Pathetic. I couldn't load Google Maps or anything. Called Sprint to report it and got cut off during the call (never had time to call back). They said they were about to send an update to my phone. Guess that didn't happen. I'm getting around 500-600 kpbs down now, still 1/3rd the speed of 3G on my OG Evo.
Maybe I should have held off the upgrade...
