I will never use a 4G phone until they fix the issues with it and have phones that can handle the new set of signals better. The 4G-\>3G handoffs have a lot of issues and the radio constantly looking for the 4G network drain your battery like crazy. ---

> [@evane](#): > > Not completely accurate, 4S is technically 4G due to its HSPA+ ability WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG 4G LTE and HSPA+ are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT technologies. LTE is a IP based structure on a completely different wireless spectrum. HSPA+ is a continuation of 3G (known as 3.5G) that provides faster access and more channels per tower but does not fix the problem of the 3G spectrum being run out. EDIT: ---
