While T-Mobile may be in no rush to make the jump to LTE, the company continues to push out their HSPA+ 42 upgrades to numerous additional markets. According to a T-Mobile announcement, the company is now offering faster 4G (HSPA+ 42) service to twelve additional markets, bringing their total to 184 million Americans in 175 markets. T-Mobile says their slightly-slower (HSPA+ 21) network now reaches nine additional markets, covering a total of 217 markets and more than 200 million potential customers. While HSPA+ 42 is theoretically capable of 42 Mbps in perfect lab conditions, real world downstream speeds post-upgrade tend to be closer to the 10-12 Mbps mark.
