I think they are all unlockable now after the contract or payment plan are
paid off. I think Verizon is as much CDMA as Sprint is. Sprint is a decent
value for the money though, at least around here. There are places where it
doesn't work so well, but that problem probably exists with everyone.

One thing to keep in mind with Sprint is that it's CDMA. Personally, I'm
never doing another Sprint branded phone. GSM or even a Verizon phone that
can also be used on GSM networks.

Subject: For Those Who May be in the Market for a New Cell Provider in the
USA, Sprint Launches LTE+ Service
Hello Everyone,
Sprint announced it is launching it's new LTE + 3 band LTE service in 77
markets in the USA. This also comes with an offer to cut T-Mobile, AT&T
and
Verizon plan costs in half.
The following is the text to the article the link to which is located at
the
end of the piece.
Enjoy,
Mark
print today launched its LTE Plus network, which is available today in 77
major markets in the U.S. To celebrate, the carrier is announcing what its
calling "the biggest wireless offer in U.S. history", offering 50 percent
off of T-Mobile, Verizon and AT&T rate plans. The offer runs from November
20 to January 7, 2016 and the pricing remains in place until January 8,
2018.
"We've made tremendous strides with our network because we know consumers
want wireless service that provides consistent speed and reliability,"
said
Marcelo Claure, Sprint CEO. "We are so confident that customers will have
an
amazing experience that we are encouraging them to give us a try with the
biggest wireless offer in the history of our industry. Customers switching
to Sprint will never need to look elsewhere. They will learn what our 58
million customers already know - Sprint offers the best value and an
award-winning network."
T-Mobile, Verizon and AT&T customers who want to switch to the network
will
get Sprint plans that mirror their old plans, only for half the price. For
example, a T-Mobile customer with four lines and 10 GB of data per line
pays
$180 per month at T-Mobile, but will only pay $90 at Sprint. An AT&T
family
who pays $100 for 15 GB data will get the same thing at Sprint for $50.
Verizon customers paying $80 for 12 GB will get the same for $40. Verizon
and AT&T customers will also get 50 percent off access fees.
The discounts are only available to consumer plans for Verizon's 1 GB, 3
GB,
6 GB, 12 GB, 18 GB, 20 GB and 25 GB shared data plans, T-Mobile's Simple
Choice 2 GB, 6 GB and 10 GB plans and AT&T's 300 MB, 2 GB, 5 GB, 15 GB, 20
GB and 25 GB shared data plans. Specific carrier features like unlimited
music and video, data rollover and cloud options do not carryover to
Sprint.
Customers switching over to Sprint can also take advantage of iPhone
Forever, Sprint's plan that allows customers to upgrade to a new iPhone
every year. It's also a "worry-free" offer, with customers having 28 days
to
try out Sprint's service. If they're not happy, they can return it without
incurring a restocking fee. Sprint will also pay any switching fees up to
$650 per line with an American Express Reward Card after online
registration
and phone turn-in.
Sprint says its new LTE Plus network is faster than Verizon's and AT&T's
networks, citing Nielsen Mobile Performance data. NMP uses crowdsourced
data
from Android users in 44 of the largest markets in the U.S., and it found
that in 20 of the 44 markets, users downloading files over 5 MB did it
fastest on Sprint. The carrier says the new network can reach up to 100
Mbps, includes stronger service with an extended 2.5 GHz signal and more
reliable service with three bands of spectrum: 1.9 GHz for broad coverage,
800 MHz for indoor coverage and 2.5 GHz for faster speeds.
Current Sprint customers will get a free tablet with one year of free
service while supplies last. Sprint says this offer is a $360 value.
