Even their main base plan has it. Granted it's not high speed but when they say 3G speed they actually mean 3G speed. It's not super fast but it's not dial up either. Most of them claim 3G speed but then limit you to 128kbps. Which is the absolute bare minimum and is only twice the speed of 56kbps, aka dial up, which is still dial up.

And I replied to the points. Just waiting for it to post. Most of those points were false.

But completely off topic of the points... moreThe points I listed, as well as GSMARENA's kind of outweigh the cons that you listed and more though, so of course they count. You get what you pay for. Anecdotally, speed and reliability are great where I live. Thank you for this discussion. 👋

Anonymous, 19 Oct 2023Possible pros of T-Mobile/Sprint over Verizon and AT&T:... moreAnd again. Back here in reality...
- False-They supposedly have more 5G but the reality is they simply have weaker coverage overall.
- Sure- I think they a few more perks...
- False- They all try to make this no contract idea but you're still in a contract. Your early termination fee now is just paying off your phone.
-False- Only the top versions of all their plans are taxes and fees included. There are still fees in general.
And only their base plans are cheaper. But the regular and majority of the plans, especially that allow specials, are not cheap. If you want promotions or are not 55 or older than no.
-Bonus- Those last two are especially not true because they always want large downpayments on new accounts, new lines, and upgrades for at least a year from 90% of customers even if they have good credit and are otherwise approved with good deals on other carriers or products.
- False- They are not uncarrier in anyway. They are just carrier with just as many fraudulent and greedy tactics as the next. And all have new tempting deals.
-True- Somewhat. Their customer service on average seems to be at least a little better to handle things than the other two.
- Give me a break🤦♂️.
I don't know what makes you such a fan. Whether you work for them or its a spectrum tic for you or you just live where they are good and have the right balance of things... but this was way over the top.

Even if you have good credit and Verizon and at&t will approve you for a new upgrade, line, or account with nothing down tmobile will still want up to an $800 downpayment until you've have a good standing account for a year.

I live in the most southern part of California by the coast. I had T mobile for 2 months after being forced to switch from Cricket Wireless.
Most painful and biggest waste of money ever. Service was almost non existent with call quality being far worse than anything I had ever used before. Data speed was not at all what they claimed and I was paying 75 for the "good" plan.
You couldnt pay me to go back. Literally

I'm always amazed at how slow Crapple,Sammy and Goog phones charge. It's pitiful for the price they charge and without the charging block. My Oneplus 11 gives me a full charge from 20 percent to full in under 25 minutes!! And charging block included, as well as lower price than the above 3.
