Sprint-Mobile

T-Mobile first needs to work on their 2G coverage which is still crap once you get off any major highway. 🙄
Did you ever think their business plan involes better faster converage in major areas where the people and money are at? They are still fairly small compared to sprint vzw and att, doesnt make much sence to throw a bunch of towers up so that ma and pa...

T-mobile Ceo's on Crack again ..... Where's the 3g Coverage again ?

This talk is great and all, but I totally agree with you folks on this one. Where is your 3g coverage ?? Seriously, a 3 mile radius in every 'major market' is doesn't mean you have coverage. T-mobile was talking about how great their 3G network was going to be back in 2006 and here we are almost 2010 and you couldn't find a 3g signal if your life depended on it. I don't hate t-mobile [in fact i'm a customer] but I'll call out the BS when I see it.
Better yet, if t-mobile can't even get device manufacturers to make something that works with their 3g network, what makes them think that will receive any support with their imaginary new network ?? And T-mobile's poor support and advertising is totally to blame. For example, aside from the te...

Your points are well taken, and I agree with what you said for the most part. I have to point out that AT&T doesn't have great coverage either, and they have had 3G a lot longer than T-Mobile. Just watch the map comparison in the Motorola DROID commer...

Yeah I am going to have to disagree with your statement that is a 3 mile radius. I live outside of Dallas, TX that has 30,000 people. I have 3G there, I have it in every city in the Dallas/Fort Worth area which is well over 100 sqaure miles. Even in s...

You are most certainly INCORRECT sir.

Do you have a 3g Tmobile device?
If not, that probably explains why you have no idea what youre talking about.
True, Tmobile 3g is only in more populated markets, but its not as minimal as you may think. I ge...

21 MBPS?

😳
Yeah, it says 21mbps...but does that take into consideration the crappy coverage and reduction in speeds the customer's will have in said crappy service areas?

So if 4g is 8-12mbps...

Then this is almost like 5G LMAO 😛
Actually based on 3GPP standards LTE (VZW and ATT's "4g") does not meet 4g standards of at least 100mbit/s. Its classified as 3.9g

Can't be worse that AT&T Ha Ha

Do they got a Map for that? 🤣

That's funny. Back when I started out, we used to say T-Mo had more holes in their coverage than swiss cheese. Overall coverage is a little better these days but ...

This is nice and all...

But I'd rather see more markets lit up for 3G rather than faster speeds. AT&T has been offering faster speeds too but ignoring the fact that people are complaining about the lack of 3g coverage areas. Not to mention the iPhone data hogs taking a toll on their network.
You remember when all you had to do with sprint was hook you blackberry up to the computer to get PAM without a data plan? Then I remember how everybody whose account I ever opened had some kind of EV-do enabled phone with some kind of ability to use ...
