Don't the AT&T phones do this even when not LTE? Maybe that is the difference.Cher;1270264 wrote:you're both wrong. if either of you took the time to read the article, you'd see the following:
"This is in contrast to the rest of the LTE phones in Verizon's lineup, all of which support simultaneous voice and data when connected to LTE."
But it's easier to just blame the network and not Apple for their design flaw. Carry on, iTards.

No. AT&T/Tmo has always been able to do data/calling at the same time. It's in the infrastructure of their network.Trueblue23;1270278 wrote:I thought they did too.
Apple cut corners by putting one antenna in their phone as opposed to two. That's how they're getting "8 hours of LTE time"
And Justin: It's not fair to compare a 3 year old android phone to an iPhone. Your EVO gets shit battery because the screen is huge and you're on Sprint. CDMA networks aren't kind to batteries.
I'm with I Wear Pants. There is nothing about the iPhone 5 that is any better than the other iPhones.

It still "works" on AT&T, but it drops down to the crappyslow data speed.WebFire;1270272 wrote:I'm not an iTard, dip****.
If that is the case, then that is totally retarded. Why would they do it for AT&T and not Verizon>?

Except that it's a bigger screen, lighter, thinner, and has LTE.

Also, I never once used data while talking on my iPhone when I was on AT&T. The fact that I won't be able to on Verizon means nothing to me.

Bigger screens are overrated, it's marginally lighter/thinner, and LTE isn't all it's made out to be.justincredible;1270295 wrote:Except that it's a bigger screen, lighter, thinner, and has LTE.
I should have said "The additional features in the iP5 aren't worth choosing it over an iP4s

Not a big deal for personal use. But it can be for business use when you want to use it as a hot spot.justincredible;1270296 wrote:Also, I never once used data while talking on my iPhone when I was on AT&T. The fact that I won't be able to on Verizon means nothing to me.

Well, when you don't currently have an iPhone why would you get the year old version? Btw, my wife is getting the 4S because she doesn't give a shit, she just hates her htc hero.

Right. I can see it being a problem for some. Just not me.

Cheaper. You could sit around and wait for the next one which hopefully turns more heads than this one.justincredible;1270301 wrote:Well, when you don't currently have an iPhone why would you get the year old version?

$100. Big whoop. And I don't want to wait around. I would've been fine with the 4S last year but still had a year left on our contract. I was mainly hoping for a new form factor and LTE. Got both.Cher;1270304 wrote:Cheaper. You could sit around and wait for the next one which hopefully turns more heads than this one.

Because you were under contract. Nobody looks for phones until their contract is nearly up. You started bitching about your EVO over a year ago, and started droning on about the iPhone. Did you even LOOK at any of the other phones on the market? So what you hate Android, it's been two (three?) years. The Razr Maxx and the Samsung Galaxy III are both awesome phones. The Lumia is even cool. Did you even give any of those the light of the day?justincredible;1270310 wrote:Shopping around?

No. Because you already pre-determined that the iPhone was the best several years ago.

People that hold others phone choices against them are ridiculous. It's a phone. I could give two shits what phone anyone else prefers, I certainly don't use my phone of choice to back some sort of superiority complex. It's such an insignificant thing, why the hostility?

It's like saying "I like my 2012 Toyota Camry more than my old ancient 2010 Honda Civic" when you haven't even test drove a 2012 Civic.
