Remember when T-Mobile was announcing major 5G developments, enhancements, and breakthrough innovations as often as in years, practically every few weeks? has passed for (mainly) quite a few reasons, but Magenta’s state-of-the-art network has clearly reached a point of relative maturity much earlier than many industry experts probably expected, so the essence Overall, there is still some room for improvement nationally.
That’s all the “uncarriers” need to further widen the gap in 5G speeds and availability with their biggest rivals, but that will happen “in the coming days” as a result of large amounts of spectrum purchased in auctions long ago. It’s supposed to be 2022.
What took T-Mo so long?
For some political reason, the nation’s second-largest wireless service provider (by number of subscribers) was denied access to the 2.5 GHz spectrum license it originally spent over $300 million to acquire, and ultimately canceled. To obtain it, it was necessary to resort to various legal means and lobbying efforts. 5G radio waves worth the money.
It clearly happened despite the opposition of competitors, and although no one can yield T-mobile Make up for lost time, all’s well that ends well. This happy ending to the apparently unconventional frequency story means that “tens of millions” of people will be able to improve the performance of their phones, at least according to the mobile network operator already widely regarded as America’s speed champion. It means “immediate” improvement.
Believe it or not, national speed scores reported by research and analysis companies like Ookla, Rootmetrics, and Opensignal are almost guaranteed to increase on your next test, and more importantly, in the real world. That’s what real users are likely to notice. There will be a big upgrade in the next few days.
Where is T-Mobile’s 2.5 GHz spectrum deployed?
This, our dear readers and friends, is the best part of this announcement. It may sound unbelievable, but T-mobile By 2022, it will be priced at an extraordinary $304 million, and will cover not only every state in the United States, but also “nearly every county” in the country.
that’s obviously not what it says everyone New spectrum will be accessible, resulting in faster 5G download speeds everywhere at the same time, but T-Mo said that almost regardless, “you’ll get a 5G boost everywhere you travel, work, or play. It is highly likely.” of your place of residence.
Of course, it helps if you frequently “travel, work, play” in rural areas, but this is the main focus of this new massive ultracapacity 5G network expansion. Even better if you live in a state like Louisiana or Pennsylvania, where the benefits of modern spectrum implementation are felt in more than 92% of all counties. T-mobileThe additional 5G capacity is expected to improve the network experience for “more than” 1.7 million people, including 500,000 rural residents.
In total, Magenta has everything in place by design to deliver significant performance improvements to approximately 60 million customers in approximately 300,000 square miles nationwide “over the next few days.” These two amazing numbers clearly speak louder than all products. Here are the words from the company’s press release and our own small article.
And another 20 million or so people will get their own significant boost in 5G speeds at a later point. T-mobile In many locations, new towers will need to be built to accommodate cutting-edge 2.5 GHz technology. This is how market leaders and industry pioneers do it.
