Verizon will be launching its latest LTE expansion with the launch of its AWS-powered LTE overlay, which Verizon will be branding as “XLTE”. The new overlay will be available in many major cities and multiple phones will be receiving software updates to enable access to the new spectrum and increased bandwidth.
As Verizon has hit capacity limits with its current 700Mhz C-Block powered network and customers have dealt with slowdowns in many cities, XLTE is meant to shore up the primary network while providing even faster speeds. The ad, first posted on Vimeo by the art director for Verizon’s current ad agency McGarryBowen before being pulled is below and is expected to run on Monday along with the expected official announcement.
