“We all know that Verizon started testing their 4G network earlier this year and that Verizon plans to roll out their LTE network on the 700 MHz spectrum sometime next year,” FoneFrenzy reports.
“My sources have confirmed that Apple and Verizon have been testing a CDMA iPhone on Verizon’s 4G LTE network. Yes, you read that correctly, Verizon and Apple have been testing the first 4G phone on Verizon’s 4G network,” FoneFrenzy reports. “The tests have been taking place for the last couple of months but with no confirmation on the release date.”
FoneFrenzy reports, “It would make good fiscal sense for Apple (and Verizon) to release the first CDMA iPhone right here in the United States running on Verizon’s new 4G network, with announcement expected in 2010 at Apple’s WWDC.”

What a bonehead. CDMA has *N*O*T*H*I*N*G* to do with LTE! Apple with certainly make a LTE iPhone eventually, but they’ll never make a CDMA phone, seeing as how they are not into dead-end technologies.
u kno wat if verizon does come out with da iphone i will be laughing at all of u people that are saying its never gunna happen..that its not possible..
im not saying i love verizon in fact i have sprint.
but if it does happen i will come back to dis site and laugh at all of u.
hey anything is possible on dis world…
“Why would Apple make a phone for the Christian Medical & Dental Association?”
@tflint… They’re PRAYING for universal health care?
The iPhone 3G and 3GS works on Canada’s 4G network owned by CDMA using telcos.
Yeah it’ll happen when we get Verizon out on the podium stating that they were wrong about the iPhone, and that it was stupid of them to pass it up or even doubt its capability or true potential.
Lets not forget Apple is not afraid to use the lesser of the signals. They went with Edge before 3G for a whole year, They aren’t exactly known to jump on the first signs of a new technology, unless they’ve had their hands in the mix, and LTE is fully set on it’s standards.
But hey your right Anything is possible as you put “on dis world…” Thank you for making America less educated.
Choice. Customers like choice.
If Apple wants a second carrier to which it can dictate terms and get happy compliance, it should be Sprint.
LTE is not 4G. LTE is a technology to lengthen the useful life span of 3G without replacing the whole infrastructure with 4G technology. It is rather proper to call it 3.5G or 3.9G, but definitely not 4G.
Perhaps, what he actually meant is a dual-mode LTE/CDMA phone. Yes, they are different tech…but because of this Verizon will need a dual-mode phone to take advantage of its entire infrastructure.
Regardless, I highly doubt there’s any credibility in this guy. He wrote the article in such a manner that I seriously question whether he actually know what he’s talking about. Not to mention, his article is littered with incorrect info.
@Correct Term
Yea you’re absolutely right but everyone is marketing LTE as a 4G technology even though it’s a technically not a 4G tech. In the end, LTE will be sold as 4G phone…after all, it sounds better than a 3.9G phone.
This is beyond yours and my control, the marketing people decided on this. To be honest, the common consumer will not care about the ‘slight’ distinction.
The Verizon commercials seem to be making fun of ATT’s network, nothing to do with iPhone. Anyway, I have been on both Verizon, and now ATT – we had much better reception with Verizon, but save money with ATT.
The only negative I’ve found with my iPhone is its functionality as a phone. ATT has horrifically crappy coverage, especially in San Francisco. And it craps out in you when you ned it the most!! I can’t wait for VeriPhone. The lines at Verizon will be longer than ATT ever dreamed.
with the droid ads, no way were they testing anything for Verizon
but I also call BS that Verizon will NEVER get the iphone. I do not believe they will get a CDMA phone, double one just for them.
however, if Apple makes a phone that supports LTE, and they most likely will, they aren’t likely to put out a proviso that it can never be used on Verizon. with all the flack they get over ATT, they will most likely unlock the phone when the contract is over, not simply change devils. so at that point and with that tech, Verizon could support the phone if they choose to.
and after the Droid (which has and does a lot of stuff that few really care about one way or another) fails, they might be happy to have the iDon’t

if Apple wants to sell the iPhone on the Verizon network in the next 5 years it will need to have support for CDMA. The LTE network will still exist and be necessary in many portions of that network for at least that long. The 3GS still works on Att edge for example.
Network upgrades have to support legacy tech for all the customers with older handsets and it takes time to do costly network upgrades.
