Depending on the coverage in ones area any one of them can be faster/stronger/better than the other.

In MY area (and I have both Verizon and Sprint modems/service) Verizon does indeed have faster speeds and lower latency. This is with a grid antenna for both (800MHz and 1900MHz). Verizon tower is 4.5 miles distant and Sprint is 1.1 Verizon wins on all counts. But, I still think Sprint is a more forward-thinking company Smile
