T-Dizzle, 17 Oct 2023T-Mo is definitely faster, but their coverage isn't re... moreThat's becuase your realme GT didn't have all the tmobile bands, of course you got bad signal. That's like complaining you can't see stars while staring at a flashlight.

    T-Mobile is also looking to be the most expensive. Their entire tech support is jammed up because it was leaked that they want to automatically upgrade people on legacy plans. They say it adds maybe $10 but it can also be MUCH higher.

      Bruh, my t-mobile ain't going past 4 mbps

        Anonymous, 17 Oct 2023If the tests were from July to Sept, how exactly did the iP... moreYou can't really be this naive. Both T-Mobile and Apple have something to gain from this.

        It helps Apple see how fast their chips will perform in a "real world" test like this, so they something they can flaunt over others... and since the device is going to released right after, perfect time to do it. If Apple approached either Ookla or T-Mobile with an unreleased iPhone, they wouldn't turn them down.

        T-Mobile also will also use whatever device they can to have the best stats. If Infinix came to America and posted the fastest speed, you can be sure T-Mobile would be ALL OVER IT, using their device to flaunt superiority, even though nobody has an Infinix device or knows who they are.

          What about security though? There's been 6 hacks already this year.

          T-Mobile is also notorious for SIM swaps, if you have crypto and use a T-Mobile attached number, you no longer have crypto.

          Do they care about criminal negligence? Absolutely not. Just throw out more SSN & contact details & etc monitoring (which they no doubt buy in bulk for a discount).

                    T-Mo is definitely faster, but their coverage isn't reliable in my area. I switched to T-Mo for awhile, so I could keep using my realme GT2 Pro, but missed calls and texts sent me back to at&t.

                      On 5G UC with T-Mobile on my Pixel 8 Pro I am getting close to 800Mbps down and around 70Mbps up, more than I get on WiFi which is around 500Mbps down and about 25 up.

                        If the tests were from July to Sept, how exactly did the iPhone 15 manage to make the test when it just came out Sept 22nd (which would be after the test ended since it ran from July to Sept) and even if it ran through Sept that’s just one week to test it??????
