Wi-Fi Calling, High-Speed Capability
Sprint will offer high-quality calls over Wi-Fi on iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus. This easy-to-use feature allows Sprint to dramatically expand coverage and connectivity options for customers through a simple and easy experience already offered for iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s.
Wi-Fi is virtually everywhere – coffee shops, bookstores, airports, restaurants, hair salons, sporting venues and schools. Best of all, communications over a Wi-Fi network doesn’t count against minute or data limits on rate plans – it’s FREE. With Sprint’s Wi-Fi Calling, customers can access these Wi-Fi networks to talk and use data even when cellular service may be limited.
In addition, iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus will launch with carrier aggregation capability, a feature of LTE advanced. Carrier Aggregation-capable devices, including iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus, have the ability to take full advantage of Sprint’s deep 2.5GHz spectrum position and experience significantly faster speeds. Cell sites with two-channel 2.5GHz carrier aggregation deployed have the ability to deliver peak speeds of 100Mbps or more to capable devices.
Sprint’s network continues to win accolades for getting better every day. According to RootMetrics, in 125 markets measured in the first half of 2015, Sprint has been awarded a total of 180 first place (outright or shared) RootScore® Awards for overall, reliability, speed, data, call, or text network performance.
