Sprint 4G LTE reaches 17 new markets

Sprint’s made some pretty noteworthy announcements today: not only did it improve its subscriber losses in Q1 FY14, but it also introduced a new customizable plan for its Virgin Mobile prepaid brand. Apparently Dan Hesse and Co. aren’t stopping there, though, as Sprint has revealed that its 4G LTE network is now live in several new markets.

Sprint today flipped the switch on its LTE service in 17 new markets that are peppered across the country, including Redding, Calif., Dubuque, Iowa and Buffalo, N.Y. The full list of 17 markets is as follows:

  • EurekaArcata/Fortuna, Calif.
  • Redding, Calif.
  • Bethesda, Md.
  • Dubuque, Iowa
  • Danville, Ill.
  • Marion/Herrin, Ill.
  • Mt. Vernon, Ill.
  • Hopkinsville, Ky.
  • Rochester, Minn.
  • Hattiesburg, Miss.
  • Auburn, N.Y.
  • Buffalo, N.Y.
  • Utica, N.Y.
  • Bloomsburg/Berwick, Pa.
  • Indiana, Pa.
  • Pittsburgh, Pa.
  • Eau Claire, Wis.

While I’m sure that some of the Sprint folk in these areas will be disappointed that they’re getting 4G LTE and not the speedier Sprint Spark service, I’m sure that most would agree that LTE is better than plain ol’ 3G. For a full list of Sprint LTE markets, hit up the Sprint link below.
