T-Mobile USA will not be issuing a software update to allow the Nokia Lumia 810 to access their LTE network (reports Zachary Lutz over on Engadget). The network variant of the Lumia 820 does not have the hardware to access T-Mobile's LTE network.

T-Mobile's statement on Engadget is as follows:

While the Nokia Lumia 810 features a chipset, which provides the hardware capability to support both HSPA+42 and LTE, the device will not automatically access our LTE network and, at this time, it will not receive an update to do so.

T-Mobile is committed to enhancing customers' experience with our devices, including providing upgrades to device features and operating systems, and T-Mobile aims to deliver software upgrades when it will provide a better experience for our customers. We'll share additional information on upgrades for the Nokia Lumia 810 when they are available.

THe handset still has access to HSPA+42 network, which offers a decent amount of speed, but owners looking for the ultimate speed (at least in today's market) are going to need to look at another handset.
