  1. Little Massa Son has gone on a spending spree for the last few years putting Softbank in massive debt which the board is now making him sell some of the assets that are not profitable. Brightstar is on sale, and now Sprint will follow.
  2. They will have to wait until November to bid on the new auction if the FCC goes with its plan without delays. This is where Sprint needs to go ballistic and deploy those massive radios.
  3. iPhones are slow compared to the Galaxy lines when it comes to radio,nevertheless Sprints speeds have gone up dramatically here in New York. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. Verizon wireless speeds haven’t suffered here in Manhattan. All of their small cells are fed by the same fiber lines that FIOS run on it. Also, they are deploying those massive big single antennas next to their AWS radios. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Tmobile doesn't have spectrum for 5G and the clock is ticking. Also, they are around 30 billion in debt due to spending 8 billion on the 600mhz. Tmobile will be adding a lot of debt in order to acquire more spectrum whether MMwave or others high frequencies.
  6. Nothing of a big change. Nokia bought Lucent so obviously they are taking those big cities LA, NYC, Philly, Boston etc that Alcatel previously was responsible for. Ericsson will take over the Southern states where they deployed the network vision 1.0 tech. The only thing that stays intact is the Samsung markets like Chicago, Seattle etc.
  7. Doctor Saw messed up, he only mentioned 40mh> when in reality he should have said 40mhz> of licensed spectrum. Tmobile will use the 5ghz WIFI and that will bring the lawsuits.
  8. Neville Ray has always dismissed Sprint 2.5ghz portfolio, but deep down he knows is a game changer. He always says how can you deploy a nationwide 2.5ghz network, but you can ask the same question how can you rollout a nationwide network on MMwave Spectrum.
  9. Interference with residential and businesses WIFI services. The LAA stuff uses the 5GHZ WIFI frequency band. Tmobile wants to be pretty using a public service band for a wireless for-profit business. They don't have the spectrum to deploy 5G period. They have to wait for the CBRS 3.5ghz band or the MMwave frequencies auction, but because their arrogance they say 600mhz and LAA can be used for 5G.
  10. LAA is a tech for crowded places or stadiums. If Tmobile and others try to install that tech everywhere the lawsuits will fly against them. Verizon is not even mentioning LAA anymore, mostly MMwave spectrum.
  11. Where is the spectrum Tmobile will use for 5G? I mean they keep using that B.S that a 10x10, 15x15 600mhz will allow them to launch a nationwide rollout of the tech. I have heard from many people that you will need 100mhz of spectrum alone to deploy a fast, reliable and low latency 5G network. Sprint can do that on their 2.5Gz and Verizon on MMWave holdings.
  12. Well, the Galaxy 9 will be the first phone that will take advantage of all that except the whole 5G NR. John Saw needs to move and execute fast. I think Tmobile really wanted that Sprint merger because of that whopping 160mhz of 2.5ghz spectrum for 5G.
  13. Rootmetrics just dropped their 2017 second half report. http://www.rootmetrics.com/en-US/content/mobile-performance-in-the-us-part-1-performance-across-the-entire-us-2h http://www.rootmetrics.com/en-US/content/mobile-performance-in-the-us-part-2-performance-across-the-50-states-2h http://www.rootmetrics.com/en-US/content/mobile-performance-in-the-top-125-us-metro-areas
  14. Buying Metro PCS would have allowed that in many areas, but the toxic board of directors at that time blocked Hesse.
  15. AT&T was able to change their image due to the iPhone, Tmobile due to the so-called crooked wireless contracts. Perhaps Sprint game changer is 5G in early 2019. If they launch a 5G spotty network then they are finished. John Saw has a huge responsibility on his hands regarding the future of this company.
  16. New CFO will change the name and brand of the company once their network buildout is done.
  17. With the whole fight vs QUALCOMM and Intel becoming the chip marker of choice for Apple I agree with you in that assessment. Apple meme is ' We won't sacrifice battery performance for new network connectivity techs.
  18. http://maps.spectrumgateway.com/dish-600-mhz.html They won a nationwide license in the 600MHZ auction.
  19. I love Gunther, but I never understood why Dr. Saw wasn't overseeing network upgrades and reporting directly to Marcelo since that is what CTO Neville does at Tmobile anyways.
  20. He wants to make sure the whole country is covered by 2.5ghz before the 5G era arrives.
  21. He mentions the reason why churn is high is due to markets where there is little LTE like band 25 or only 3G sites. He mentions Triband has to go to every tower and markets. Good news for folks in markets such as Tucson AZ, Oklahoma etc.
  22. Yup, I just heard exactly that. 5-6 Billion will be low side of CapEx going forward. He also mentions he wants a great network entering 2019.
  23. Charlie Ergen will die first before handing over Tmobile their spectrum holdings. If Verizon 28ghz and 37ghz bands become a disaster which I think it will because that won't penetrate a paper bag then they will go to the table and talk with Dish.
