    Which Note 2 are you talking about, pretty sure they all have 4G though.

    I know it has 4G LTE but my phone just says 4G not LTE. They sprint guys told me the phone doesn't have a 4g radio. Just 3G and 4G LTE. I'm guessing they are still working on it because its been jumping from 3G to 4G last 2 days now. and Yes i do live by downtown which has been the only place i get 4G signal so for. Its back to 3G at work. But at least they seem to be working on it since i was planning on switching to verizon when my contract is up.

    4g is just a term. it means 4th generation and nothing else. there are different types of 4g tech. sprint originally went with wimax as their 4g technology, but they went with the better and more reliable lte technology later on. your phone will show 4g and not lte because they are the same thing.

    so if you are seeing 4g then that is great for you.....congrats!!!!!!

    correct....i have the htc evo 4g lte and when i have 4g it will show 4g......it just depends on the phone and carrier as to how they want to show the signal.

    Just depends on the phone but even though it only says 4G it means LTE so it doesnt even make a difference. Couldnt put it any better than this.
