In side by side tests with Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T, T-Mobile was the fastest every time. (I am not affiliated with any mobility company). We moved from AT&T to Verizon 18 months ago and will now add T-Mobile as a secondary carrier. We will move all if the heavy users to T-Mobile who gives us unlimited for $25 per month (before taxes) versus $55 per month with Verizon.
We tested in:
Houston, TX
Beaumont, TX
Lake Charles, LA
Lafayette, LA
Houma, LA
Metairie, LA
Atlanta, GA
Miami, FL
Raleigh, NC
Arlington, VA
Philadelphia, PA
Harrisburg, PA
Boston, MA
Portland, ME
Las Vegas, NV
Albuquerque, NM
Dallas and FW, TX
El Paso, TX
Raton, NM
Colorado Springs, CO
Denver, CO
San Diego, CA
Oakland, CA
Cheyenne, WY
I am amazed at the effectiveness of T Mobile latest marketing gimmick. Its a GRAND SLAM as far as marketing goes, good god, well good for them and bad for you if T Mobile sells you service based on your post. Ive seen it before and its their latest campaign!
The majority of people so gullible to marketing aimed at the ignorant, yet this is how companies grow and T Mobile is growing. Dont get me wrong I am rooting for T Mobile, more competition the better.
Here is the deal though, T Mobile has the largest newest, fastest LTE Network!!!
Yeah and Ok >>> ??? SO ???
Like hello, its easy to have the largest, fastest and newest LTE network when you have much less cell towers and cover less of the country then the big boys do!
1. So yes, if you are in an area of good T Mobile coverage and never go out of the area, its a good deal, but if you travel around to other areas there is a 100% chance you are going to have better coverage with Verizon or ATT because T Mobile does not cover as much of the country. (but growing)
2. WHO CARES IF YOU HAVE THE HIGHEST MEASURED SPEED?
My god, here we go, as Americans, not understanding just because something is faster doesnt mean you will ever, ever, ever notice a difference! More so on a cell phone!. My god, we are splitting HAIRS over speeds, so what do you choose, a phone that will work in almost any place in the country like ATT or Verizon or a phone like T Mobile that promises a faster network that you will never notice yet find yourself stuck without service in places around the USA.
