AT&T"s 4G LTE network is currently live in 261 markets across the U.S. (as of May, 2013) with more markets continually being added. AT&T expects to cover 300 million people with its 4G LTE network by the end of 2014. With 4G LTE technology, you"ll get mobile Internet speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G, enabling you to upload a photo in 6 seconds, download a song in 4 seconds, and download HD movies in minutes and apps almost instantly. You can expect average download data rates of 13 megabits per second (Mbps) and 6 Mbps for uploads in real-world, loaded network environments. If you are not in an area served by 4G LTE, you"ll be able to connect to AT&T"s HSPA+ enhanced backhaul network, which delivers speeds up to 4x faster than AT&T"s HSPA 3G network. With the combination of 4G LTE and HSPA+, you"ll enjoy higher data speed averages than other networks.
