Existing Sprint or Verizon Wireless customers won't be surprised by what I'm about to say, but it's worth saying anyway: The iPhone 5 won't allow for calls and data at the same time if you're using one of those two carriers.
If you're using AT&T, it will.
As the New York Times' Brian Chen points out,?this odd issue?has to do with the way 4G LTE works.?
"The technology in 4G LTE networks does not currently handle voice transmissions; it only does data. So when you place a phone call on a 4G LTE smartphone, it?s actually rolling back to the carrier?s older second- or third-generation network, according to AnandTech, a Web publication that does deep analysis on hardware," Chen explains.
This means that when someone using an AT&T-based device makes a phone call using an iPhone 5, everything rolls back to the carrier's older network ? which can handle both calls and data at the same time. This is not the case for the older CDMA networks to which Verizon- and Sprint-based devices roll back.
