I've been w/T-mobile since 2008. I bought the original iPhone & of course the only mobile service option was AT&T. After a year of their nickel & dime-ing shenanigans I did some research & discovered T-mobile also utilized GSM. Since I bought my phone outright from Apple it was unlocked. My researched revealed the phone should technically work on T-mobile's network if it was unlocked. There were many success stories of people doing so. So I went to a T-mobile store in Atlanta explained what I wanted to do. The staff were reluctant it would work but were willing try. They swapped out the AT&T SIM w/a T-mobile then powered up the iPhone. Sure enough it connected & began working. We were all surprised. I became a loyal T-mobile customer that day & never looked back. The service was not best originally; But it has improved exponentially since that time. T-mobile has the best customer service & I NEVER had any surprised charges. John Legere is a BOMB CEO!!!

T Mobile does so much better in data, here in So Cal and I mean like all of socal. From Kern County all the way to San Diego T Mobile destroys Verizon when it comes to data. My thought is this. If you need reliable signal to call with a service that won't drop calls, get Verizon. For sure Verizon is the best for that. If you use data more and rely on the internet more T Mobile is a no Brainer. This is my though for SoCal only. Idk about anywhere else.

T-Mobile USA is the first in the world to use 600MHz spectrum. That alone is amazing.

I switched to T-Mobile from AT&T a few months ago after doing their free trial. Their5G speed is quite impressive in the Washington DC area.

Ten years ago, I switched 1 phone on Verizon to 5 phones on T-Mobile. I had more data, unlimited calls, and text (both limited on Verizon), and the cost was almost the same (5 phones for the price of one). Service was pretty crappy but good enough for my family and me. T-Mobile has definitely gotten better over the years and became notably better with the acquisition of Sprint. I just returned from a 2,000-mile road trip from the midwest to the southwest. I had a signal almost everywhere, including on rural roads.

T-Mobile had a terrible network because they were only on 1900mhz for the longest time. The legacy carriers AT&T and Verizon had 800/850mhz spectrum in addition to 1900mhz. The lower frequencies penetrate walls better allowing for better indoor reception. One of the big complaints about T-Mo's (and other PCS1900 carriers) is how terrible it was getting coverage indoors. To compound that, T-Mo also did not have a lot of 1900mhz spectrum leading to network congestion. Their purchase of Sprint was not so much to gain customers as it was to gain more spectrum ( 1900mhz, 2500mhz, and a bit of 850mhz) to expand capacity. Other carriers did the same. AT&T did not purchase Leap Wireless (marketed under the Cricket Wireless brand) for their customers but for their rights to radio spectrum. Heck, they actually hated picking up the customers as they would lower AT&T's ARPU (average revenue per user) metrics. In the years that followed, T-Mobile was very aggressive in acquiring more RF capacity as the US government allocated more spectrum for mobile networks. They picked up large blocks of 1700/2100mhz and 600mhz (from the shutdown of analog TV) in FCC auctions. T-Mobile even purchased blocks of 700mhz from Verizon.

@@riickyworld1 No, Metro was one of the few "other" brands that TMobile kept when they merged with Sprint.

The video didn't seem to mention that T-Mobile didn't walk away with nothing when the AT&T and T-Mobile merger failed. In fact, T-Mobile got a few billion and spectrum. The cash and, more importantly, the spectrum allowed T-Mobile to have a better network and have similar spectrum with AT&T to allow some previously AT&T-only compatible phones to work finally with T-Mobile which includes the AT&T iPhone 5 (iirc) which was then limited to 2G when used with T-Mobile. This is crucial as differences in frequency band support between AT&T and T-Mobile made it harder than usual to switch between the two (while retaining the same device) despite both being GSM-based networks.

I’m legit proud to use them now, still a sprint customer it on the network. The speeds are amazing and I like that they are still providing the best support and best associates in there stores.

I‘m living in Germany and Deutsche Telekom has by far the best mobile connection speeds. I‘m getting 1 Gbit with my iPhone in my home town, which is crazy. The other two carriers can only deliver about 30-50 Mbit.

In the Ohio / Akron market, my Home Intnernet peaks up to 700 Mbps, I get 60 Mbps upload regularly. Sometimes at 8pm on a rainy Sunday I'll drop to a lowly 450 Mbps. (lol) Total of 3 lines + home internet, bill is 160 a month. Can't complain. Their network started to get much better around 2015 if memory serves.Then once the SPrint purchase happened... let's just say in this area with the addition of n41 and b25 from the Sprint Portfolio, with their already stacked PCS/AWS bands at Band 2 and 66, I get excellent coverage all over.

The young people were attracted to AOL AIM and the thumb pressing keyboard. The original iPhone's main market were executives and professionals. For many, it was unaffordable. It cost a whopping $700 and required a 1 or 2 year contract with AT&T, plus a credit check was necessary. It was considered a luxury phone at the time. Once Samsung came out with the much cheaper Galaxy and Android OS, the smarphone market exploded, and Apple had to adjust and retarget the iPhone to the average consumer.

I switched to T-Mobile back around 2015 and haven't looked back since. I live in New Brunswick, NJ and here at home I get 208Mbps downloads on 5G. Of course, when my phone is connected through WiFi to my Verizon FiOS connection, I see download speeds of 373Mbps.

I've used Mint mobile which is an MVNO operating on T-Mobile's network & I can say that service was quite good. Personally I doubt care about 5G, 4G & LTE are more than good enough, what's more important to me is good coverage & low ping. Ping is hardly gonna be effected by the generation of cellular your using, it's more so a result of sub-station routing & distance to the endpoint. Coverage, well that's just more antennas in rural areas & hopefully longer range stuff.

I'm rocking Google Fi. They did the strangest thing Around May of 2022. They cut the price and increased the cap of unthrottled speed on the unlimited plan. This is right in the middle of when inflation started to rage. And with no effort - they just improved.

Also not mentioned is at&ts absolute disastrous launch of their gsm network in 2003, which is a business school case study on how not to do things, they weren’t always king

I've had T-mobile since i graduated high school in 2004! and honestly, i can only remember a couple times where they pissed me off. other than that its been pretty smooth. I'm very happy with them and the service for me was never bad(other than some rough patches). but maybe its because i never left the cities.

I’ve had Verizon when it first got the iPhone. I haven’t switched because I’ve had grandfathered unlimited. Now they barely have a great deal with 20$ a month for a tablet but I’ve been disappointed by their service these last 3 years.

How could you fail to mention their acquisition of metro PCS? That was a MAJOR reason for their turnaround

I got a T-mobile ad before watching this.

I have alot of tmobile towers all over where i live but my service was so bad each time i tried them for cell service . Their data slows down alot in my area. I gave up on them after 3 tries. I hate their service so much!

To be honest, I'm really glad they were able to bring the "un-carrier" mentality to home internet with 5G. I got tired of dealing with the cable company and have a viable alternative now. Is gigabit fiber faster? Sure. But most people don't actually need that and just don't want to get ripped off.

I laughed way too hard at Mr. Small Mustache 😂

Unfortunately they still have a spotty coverage which is a dealbreaker for me 🤷🏻‍♂️ Best data plans & speeds though.

When Corona was a thing and all fellow IT folks were working from home, I went to the office and did a speed check. 600 Mbit/s. On a phone. I have less than that at home. And it's cheap. 10 euros every 28 days. Well, cheap thinking of European prices.

I hardly ever think of switching to another isp, but when I do I either get paranoid that service won't be as good or the cost will be the same or even increase over time. If I can cut costs without sacrificing connectivity, I May just have to look more into switching.

Appreciate the video. 👍

I can't deny that T-Mobile's marketing is top notch, and that they did all of humanity a favor when they basically killed contracts for the whole industry, but I do have to say that their stock is ludicrously overpriced. Their revenue growth since the "merger" is basically flat, they make very little in the way of profit, they pay no dividend, do no buybacks(in fact they've increased share counts), and their debt is slowly creeping up to T and VZ's levels. I'm not sure what people see in the stock itself to allow it to be valued at ~60x earnings. That's Tesla crazy.

The debt is from the 5g competition. They clobbered T and Vz, who are in worse shape. Expectation is revenue coming from 5g services. But yeah, PE of 66 in this market environment is peculiar.

Technically when you think about it, if you lease a phone for 36 months that’s basically like a contract. You can’t cancel your service until the device is paid off. When I was on a 2 year contract I had to pay $199.99 for the newest devices then be with them for two years. The two-year contract lets you buy an expensive phone at a inexpensive subsidized price of $199. the cost of the phone is added into your monthly fee. If you cancel your service before the contract expires you would be charged a early termination fee. Don’t be fooled. They still do contracts. They just changed a few things around to make it seem like it isn’t a contract.

@@Johnbbotc I stopped leasing phones the second you could buy your own and take them anywhere. You can buy newish used phones in the 200 range or less these days, nobody should at this point willingly do a lease agreement if they have an option not to. I'm sure it still happens, but it's extremely easy these days to avoid a contract.

Great video as always

I was with verizon for 8 years then at&t for 2 years and in 2016 switched to tmobile cant complain there services has been really and has gotten better and better with every year .

Well, they do this in the beginning, but then once they become a monopoly, they do the same thing as the previous one.

One little thing they do: they break the law by including the taxes in their monthly charge. It's supposed to be added on top. That's illegal. Every month they take exactly $50 from my bank account. Exactly $50. Simple. And i love it.

Very helpful info.

I was originally a VoiceStream customer when they were bought out. Their customer service was awesome even after the switch. I never had the issues other did and I’ve been a customer ever since. I’ve been there so long there’s even a special note on my account when any reps pull up the account I’m always thanked at the beginning for being a long time valued customer. I can only say things have only gotten way better since the beginning.

That's funny I just posted the same comment , I was with Voicestream first. Exact same experiences you have. Love them

I’ve been with T-Mobile since 2014. I was with Sprint before that. I have nothing but love for the company for trying to please us. I have all my Apple devices financed from T-Mobile no questions ever asked

i've been with T-Mobile since 2003 and i've been happy despite my reception in Rural areas but i didn't worry, if i didn't have signal, gave me a chance to recharge my phone! much love T-Mobile

Tmo service has become much better. Value, service, i have no complaints. Been very happy since i switched.

I loved T Mobile when I was student, but in Mexico the best operator that gives you the best offer for your money is AT&T

I literally got a t-mobile ad watching this-

Watches t-mobile video, gets t-mobile ad's ☠️

Keep Austin Weird bro! easily one of the top cities in the US, i'm a wee bit north of you on i35

I have been with T-MOble since the beginning. And yes I suffered the poor reception and even the negative social aspect. One of the reasons I stuck with them was theyGSM/Sim Card technologyd as apposed to CDMA. I was traveling to Europe a lot and CDMA was not even an option. Boy did Verizon miss that boat. Can we say SMS or Texting?

i have been using tmobile since 2003 i am still loving it

"Mr. Small moustache" 😂😂😂😂😂

a good CEO is huge part of a company

You completely skipped over covering the fact that if not for T-Mobile, android woudlnt have grown to what it is. Since T-Mobile couldn’t get the iPhone, they took a huge bet on android especially with the launch of the first android phone and then kept growing it

Yeah... Why skip over something so... Iconic!

My carrier charges by the minute and does not have data (only text and voice) but charges 25$CDN a year (not a month). From this, they charge ~1.25 month for 911 charges and 0.30 a minute. Nothing else as long as I top it up at least once a year and I don't lose my unspent minutes. I only use it for emergencies but it's the cheapest I could find. Everybody else is at least 15$ a month just for voice which ends up being ~180$. Every time someone points me to a "better deal" there's always a catch.

I had T-Mobile 4 years ago and I never had a problem I had service everywhere I went customer service was awesome prices were low and everyone was happy only problem was I got arrested and I had 3 phones I was financing I am now in debt to T-Mobile so I have Verizon

I am a diehard, Verizon user, and traveling around the United States. I have never had my calls dropped, and I’ve always had excellent customer service. And I still hear complaints from T-Mobile customers that in many areas they go in they can’t get reception. So I’m still not convinced switching over to T-Mobile. 14:36

It depends on your area. Where I am located T-mobile has a stable network than Verizon. In Los Angeles, Verizon has coverage but their network is almost always congested. T-Mobile has better speeds and lower ping.

@@kenr4709 Prepaid SIM cards are so cheap from chain stores,supermarkets,drugstores etc. One time I bought Lycamobile SIM card kits that used the T-Mobile network. 3 month prepaid service only $30 for unlimited calls,SMS,international SMS, International Calling to 70 countries and 12 GB of data. The data I constantly get is about 80-250 Mbps, some areas I noticed over 500 Mbps. Coverage is reliable,in this market 2nd place to Verizon. Ping is also great,around 19-34 ms usually.

I have been with T-Mobile for 17 years I didn't realize that T-Mobile was considered so bad. Before that I had Verizon in my apt., I was always having dropped calls and the straw that broke the camel's back was when I was on a service call with some company waited on hold for a half hour and as soon as I got a rep on the phone the call got dropped, I was done. I called Verizon right after that said disconnect my service right now then threw the phone against the wall not the most mature thing to do. 17 years later T-Mobile is still the only carrier that can give me reliable service where I live.
