They are both good. Ma boy has the t bolt and I the EVO. I got 9.2 mbps and he got 47 mbps down using ookla once in LA. Got on YouTube and I kept whooping his ass left and right! We decided it was a glitch for the t bolt on ookla.

The Sprint network is less saturated than Verizon. VZW benefits indoors+rural areas (700Mhz better penetration). Sprint has a capacity advantage.

@wpgeek the sprint 4g network has more subscribers, VZW ended the 2nd Quarter with 1.2million. While Sprint has 4million+

@andreptile17 Cause its cheaper. You get what you paid for. Verizon costs more but you get more coverage.
