I'm assuming that means you have an AT&T iPhone 4S. If so, you've always had 4G, it's just that iOS wasn't programmed to show when you were on 4G until the 5.1 update, for some reason.

It's just a marketing ploy by AT&T. They begged Apple to add it for their "HSPA+" crap. So they can say they have the only 4G iPhone. It's basically just an indicator for users to see if their current signal is HSPA+ or not.

General question. I looked over the last few pages and didn't see anything ..

Is the iPhone making up some of the ground it lost to droid a few years ago? I guess the same rules apply as they did then. If you like a phone that you can hack/tweak/optimize, then the droid may be better for you. If you just want to use a phone that's set up for you, use iPhone.

How have your experiences been on iPhone using Verizon? tia.

When did the iPhone lose ground? From my understanding it's still the best selling smartphone in the world & when it became available on Sprint & Verizon there were many who went to the iPhone. I'm pretty sure that there has been a jailbreak for every iPhone & firmware to "hack, tweak, & optimize".

Reading threads about iphone v. droid on forums, I get the feeling that Droid has lost a little of its pop in the last year or two. Do you droid owners feel this way?

I know that there are fans on both sides of the fence who wouldn't own anything but the phone they have.

Here is something I'm wondering that involves AT&T iPhone 4S owners with unlimited data. AT&T recently had the throttling debacle so went to a standard where 3G phones get throttled at 3gb but 4G phones get throttled at 5gb. Does this mean since the recent update that AT&T pushed to show 4G instead 3G on the 4S that it will be throttled at 5gb now?

Love mine, too. I have the Maxx, and the battery is GREAT. The screen is primo. What's not to love?

It's funny that you mention the screen and then ask whats not to love. I thought the screen was the worst part of the razr.

I got the Droid Razr Maxx, and I love it. I don't use iTunes, so I see no need to get the iPhone. It is a great phone, though.

I don't really think that had to do with it. Their servers/computers can tell that on their own. I think it was more of a marketing ploy to get people to buy an AT&T iPhone 4S in order to have "4G". Kinda stupid, but that's what I think.

I'm sure they can tell or already know but if they wanna call it 4G they should have to treat it as 4G. Another lawsuit they wanna lose.

Implying the only advantage the iPhone has over the rzer is itunes is misinformation, not personal opinion.

Please give me another one then, because I believe everything else is personal opinion. No need to mock others for an opinion over something as innocent as a phone.
