Arysyn Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 A few highlights from the T-Mobile Press Release regarding the OpenSignal reports : “Better matters. But BEST sure as hell matters more,” said John Legere, president and CEO of T-Mobile. “I’ve always said, ‘Shut up and listen to your customers.’ Well, now, customers across all US wireless providers have spoken—through billions of their network experiences—and they’ve told us loud and clear that America’s Un-carrier has built America’s BEST unlimited network.” In addition to the OpenSignal results, T-Mobile’s LTE network was also fastest for the 14th quarter in a row according to Ookla Speedtest.net data, which is based on millions of actual customer experiences. “It’s a clean sweep for the Un-carrier!” said Neville Ray, Chief Technology Officer for T-Mobile. “For the past several years, T-Mobile customers have been riding on America’s fastest LTE network. But that wasn’t good enough for us. Now T-Mobile’s network is the fastest, the most responsive and has the most reliable LTE signal in the nation. That’s what I’m talkin’ about!” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiWavelength Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 OpenSignal reports T Mobile Network very strong! http://www.fiercewireless.com/wireless/t-mobile-tops-latest-opensignal-s-latest-network-study-while-unlimited-weighs-verizon-at-t To add to this : http://www.androidpolice.com/2017/08/02/t-mobile-wins-every-single-one-opensignals-state-mobile-networks-awards/ Of course, crowd sourced results are never manipulated, skewed, or just flat out wrong. See the 2016 United States presidential election: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_election,_2016 But I wonder why T-Mobile cannot ever seem to get scientifically tested results to match up with crowd sourced results. Hmm... AJ 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arysyn Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Not to get political, but perhaps this is why John Legere got into a Twitter fight with Donald Trump. They do things to get a reaction that earns them fans, then the power and influence these men seem to have over these fans cause them to do, say, and even believe in things they normally wouldn't. So, as Trump convinces people to think and express some crazy things, Legere convinces people to believe T-Mobile is more than a wireless carrier, its the "Uncarrier", a way of life, and to the Magentans, certainly beyond scientific reasoning and rational thought. John Legere claims T-Mobile is doing wonders in addressing consumer "pain points" and using the example of T-Mobile Tuesdays as giving back to customers, when it really just is giving away free stuff and discounts into appeasing customers into believing T-Mobile cares about them. This apparently holds a stronger effect in certain media than science. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. I have both a T-Mobile and Sprint line and one thing I can tell you is that my Sprint line never goes No Service. It may drop to 3G that's either beyond slow or unusable but Sprint has the reliably part down. I really boggles my mind that T-Mobile cannot get that part right and they have a way dense network compared to Sprint. T-Mobile has to work on how reliable the network is.

red_dog007 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 (edited) Every time I try to use OpenSignals website it always seems to be wrong or not have heck of a lot of data. When you look at root metrics coverage map, for the number of customers ATT and VZW have, it seems like they have a lot less who care and are interested in this stuff. Lot less participation/data.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I am in that over 55 class. I use a bunch of data. I do realize the vast majority over 55 might not, but there are some that will probably jump on the plan. I see the low price. Great if you have unlimited for that price and do not need to worry about usage. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
