T-Mobile today said it has expanded the availability of dual-band LTE service to a total of 26 major U.S. cities and 120 small metro areas. The newest additions include all of New York City, Long Island, and northern New Jersey. T-Mobile said central New Jersey and Westchester County, N.Y., will have Wideband LTE coverage very soon. According to T-Mobile, NYC customers are reporting peak download speeds of 100Mbps with average download speeds hovering around 22Mbps. T-Mobile is using 700MHz spectrum to supplement LTE coverage alongside its existing AWS spectrum. T-Mobile is marketing the paired spectrum as Wideband LTE. Verizon calls its paired spectrum service, also in the 700MHz and AWS bands, XLTE. Sprint, which uses three bands instead of two, calls its combined LTE service Sprint Spark. The idea behind all three is to offer more capacity where needed.
