T-Mobile Moving Quickly To Launch LTE
For real?
The company will launch its LTE network with an amount of spectrum equal to AT&T and Verizon, and double that of Sprint's current LTE deployment.
Where they get all that spectrum? Did AT&T really have that much to give? $hit way to go T-Mo!
Verizon better watch out.
You can also check out T-mobiles spectrum holdings at the FCC website.
I'm just trying to get a testimony from a NON-T-Mobile employee who lives in Connecticut how Tmobiles network is, in Connecticut, New Britain Hartford area. But the whole state as well.
I need to free up some cash for other expenses like gas for my car and payments on my credit card.

And straight from a Verizon customer, I am considering switching to T-Mobile in May/June when the Galaxy S4 launches.

I'm in the same predicament sort of. My Verizon contract is up in May. I just may give T-Mo a shot. I like what I'm hearing from them. Only I'm in NYC so coverage is great no matter what and I only travel to and from major metro areas. So it might work out for me. Much as I love Verizon and...

With this information and their new unlimited 4G plan with no caps its exactly what I have been wanting from a cell phone carrier since I got a smart phone in 07 with my G1 😛

YOU are forgetting the fact that, even paying full price for a high-end smart phone, you're still going to pay considerably LESS with a T-Mobile plan over 2 years than you will with AT&T or Verizon. And by "outskirt" you mean the boonies many miles outside of where the city ends, and that assuming you're not leaving the city on a major highway (in which case you're also covered). You're also forgetting that (at least here in DFW) T-Mobile's "fake" 4G is actually FASTER than Verizon's LTE. Also, if you break your phone in ANY contract you're going to have to replace it yourself, so I don't know where you're coming from there. You could always spend the $7/mo to get the handset insurance if you'r...

Insurance is not bundled with other carriers-- if I did not pay for insurance on my AT&T or Sprint phone I'm in the same boat as a T-Mobile customer.
And if you're on a contract plan, T-Mobile will roam on other carriers networks in remote areas (assuming there is GSM coverage of some kind). When I was on contract, I even saw roaming on AT&Ts GSM network in some places. And as srich27 said, you always have coverage on highways (since the carriers back in the e...

You get what you pay for. You won't get a Cadillac network if you're paying for a Chevy.
It should be noted that as of today T-Mobile has not refarmed any of their HSPA+ network to the cellular / PCS bands in CT, the first step to having LTE available in the area. Once they do both of those, my primary phone (unlocked AT&T Galaxy S3) will operate on both their HSPA+ and LTE networks and my secondary phone (unlocked iPhone 4) will run well on their HSPA network.
I agree with the other posters that data will be significantly faster on ...
