Why does T-Mobile have far superior voice clarity then Cingular?
uhhh. they are the same. could be the phone you used. some models sound better than others.

I know they are the same, I just can't believe it. T-mobile sounds so much better.

what phones did you compare? i guess i wasn't suggestive enough with my comment to convey this...

This is not entirely true.
Cingular will have a little bit less voice quality but nothing should be drastic. We use 850 Freq which has a slight less call quality with a stronger output to get through buildings better.
Tmobile uses 1900 so the call quality will be a slight bit better.
In general, you cannot tell the difference and in that case it would revert back to what the past people said about maybe it is the phone because they can make a difference.

What????????
All other things equal there is NO difference between 850 MHz and 1900 MHz in call quality.
Where do you people come up with this crap?

they make it up as they go along. that's the whole point of the internet. nothing is a fact anymore.

Is that a fact? 😉

Well in Phoenix,T Mobile has about 100 more cell sites than Cingular to cover about the same area, and both use GSM 1900mhz. T Mobile went crazy adding new sites in the Phoenix/Mesa metro area and their service is generally much better than Cingulars in the Valley of the Sun. Cingular hasnt really done anything to improve ATTs old network here in Phoenix so the whole more bars in more places is just a bunch of crap PR.

haha sorry i know its old.. but i missed that post.. thanks for being there Texas, i dub you our forum police to question all crap that comes through and to call him or her out accordantly

You just wonder, do they intentionally make it up or is someone else feeding them this.

You are the one who is wrong. What is the difference between AM and FM Radio. AM has lower quality but gives out a longer range. FM has better quality but lower range.
It is the same with Frequencies. Higher freq give off a better quality but lower coverage. Lower uses more battery power and has a slight less quality.
Do not call me stupid when you have no clue what you are talking about.

Correction...
Let me restate that. Wrong phrasing.
Higher freq will not penetrate through buildings as well not coverage. They are able to produce a higher quality signal but at the same time more likely to be interrupted by structures.
Lower frequencies have a lower quality but send a stronger signal and can penetrate structures better.
Same as a wireless router or house phone. You use higher freg to get the quality signal but its easier to interrupt.

Ok, let's make sure we have your theory down.
You think that, based on comparisons between AM and FM, lower frequencies do not produce better quality than higher frequencies.
While that is correct about AM and FM in most instances it has everything to do with the transmission type and quality at the source than the frequency in use.
Have you ever heard of AM Stereo? Not widely deployed but it makes AM sound awesome. But how could that be? According to you the frequency makes the quality so poor.
Furthermore, AM and the attached quality was first used because transmission of frequencies at higher ranges was not possible.
Anything else on which your theory is based? I am not an engineer but I understand basic physics. The q...

You may have had a difference in reception between phone models, but Cingy and Tmobile are the same technology so the voice clarity isn't different. Take an unlocked quad-band GSM phone, and take turns swapping out a Cingy and Tmobile card. You won't notice a difference, provided they're the same distance from their respective towers. The only time you might notice a difference is indoors, when a Cingy phone is using 850 mhz because it penetrates better. I've heard that Tmobile is starting to pick up 850 roaming, so even that wont be a noticeable difference soon.
...
I have tmo and cingy and my cingy phone definately has superior voice quality and signal strength in Dallas.
...
T-mobile has a weaker network than Cingular has. I dont know if you are in a major under a Tmob cell tower etc. I have spoken to many a person that have had Tmob service and have said it sucks! Including my relatives.
