Sprint's 4G LTE network continues to trudge along, slowly growing both larger and faster at the same time. Now the carrier has upgraded the data speeds available in 20 new markets across the country. Consumers benefiting from this news range from California and Arizona in the west across the US to Connecticut and New Jersey in the east. Down south, Sprint's boosting things for residents and visitors of Hot Springs, Arkansas and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

Here's the full list of newcomers.

Sprint's new 4G LTE markets:

  • Hot Springs, AR
  • Nogales, AZ
  • Bakersfield, CA
  • El Centro, CA
  • Visalia/Porterville, CA
  • Bridgeport/Stamford/Norwalk, CT
  • Willimantic, CT
  • Sarasota/Bradenton, FL
  • Mason City, IA
  • Peoria, IL
  • Omaha, NE
  • Ocean City, NJ
  • Trenton/Ewing, NJ
  • Zanesville, OH
  • Shawnee, OK
  • Lancaster, PA
  • Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, PA
  • Myrtle Beach, SC
  • Provo/Orem, UT

Sprint 4G LTE is sometimes only as zippy as competitors' 3G, but it's better than the slower speeds the carrier provides otherwise. Hopefully the situation improves as Sprint Spark comes to more parts of the country.

Sprint says its 4G LTE is now available in 402 cities nationwide.
