A GSMA report has revealed the growing gap in both quality and usage of US and European mobile networks. For many years, Europe had the upper hand over the US when it came to mobile networks. Large parts of the continent had widespread 3G access, and were quick to improve on the services with HSPA and HSPA+ rollouts. The US reacted by increasing its spend on infrastructure by 70 percent over the past six years, while the infrastructure spend in the EU actually declines over the same period. This led to the launch of LTE in the US, and a total reversal of fortunes.
