t mobile now
Ever since the merger with sprint, t mobile has been absolute trash. Even after the new sim card its bad. Who ever thought it was a good idea to merge with sprint needs to get fired. Worst thing that...

We’re on 4G LTE phones (iPhone 8) and wondering if upgrading to 5G phones would solve our problems, because T-Mobile gets top scores on the respected OpenSignal Oct 2021 report on 5G in the USA. Most folks complaining on this thread don’t say if they are on 5G or not.
Should I upgrade to 5G phones or just leave T-Mobile?
each area may vary..personally i dont have the fastest of 5G in my area but its a solid connection always (tower issues happen as it does for every carrier at times). a lot will also depend on how they set up the 5G in your area..there are some differences when it comes to rural area 5G though..which is pretty much what i have in my area.. as of 7:15AM so not a whole lot of people out and about just yet (college town) my download is 159Mbps with a 24.9Mbps upload. when the mass majority of the town is up and moving i might drop to 50-80ish Mbps down..still quite usable.
