AT&T trying to trick customers to think that any phone is 4G? That’s what they’re doing with the iPhone 4S. AT&T is nowย advertisingย the iPhone 4S as a 4G capable phone. But is the iPhone 4S capable ofย receivingย true 4G speeds? Maybe… the iPhone 4S on AT&T has a theoretical download speedย of up to 14.4Mb/s when is connected to an AT&T’s HSPA+ network, that’s twice the speed of the theoretical download speed that itย receiveย when it’s connected to AT&T’s 3G network.ย HSPA+ is still notย consideredย as a 4G speed by many, moreย likeย 3.5G. The sad thing is that AT&T has the right to advertise the iPhone 4S as a 4G capable phone becauseย The International Telecommunications Union (ITU) hasย WiMax, LTE and HSPA+ as 4Gย networks.
