Just read this news. Not sure how it will affect Chinese phone users -- more specifically what specification requirements will be changing.

T-Mobile is now kicking off a major new program to upgrade its 2G/EDGE network with 4G LTE. The company plans to complete 50 percent of the work this year alone, and expects the program to be substantially complete by the middle of next year. The upgrade will provide customers who currently experience 2G/EDGE coverage new access to 4G LTE, and many already covered by 4G LTE will enjoy access to 4G LTE in even more places. In addition, T-Mobile plans to begin deploying 4G LTE this year in the new 700 MHz A-Block spectrum the company is in the process of acquiring.

Ya, our big providers just finished up the auction for the 700mhz here in Canada. It's supposedly a really big deal. That frequency is going to allow them to put up far fewer towers because the signal can travel a lot further.
I hope it lives up to all the hype.
