I have a feeling that they will need roaming agreements as they build out their infrastructure. Until then it's only an mnvo

I have a feeling they will need to buy more

Spectrum gateways site shows they have nationwide 600 MHz. Most areas only have 5x5 mhz.

Yes I'm curious as to how much they have with band 71

Doesn't dish have Nationwide low band

That might happen. But won't dish require a lot of band 41?

Redundant sites will be collocated and the original Sprint site decommissioned yes, but anywhere the Sprint site adds to T-Mobile coverage they will be retained, with T-Mobile bands added. Coverage should only grow, not shrink.

I don't think anything specific has been said about T-Mobile users being able to use Sprint towers. Why give T-Mobile users extra coverage if you're just going to shut off most of the Sprint towers 3 years later? And since T-Mobile only plans to deploy the EBS/BRS band using the NR airlink from their network, I don't know that your one plus will ever connect to B41.
It's possible, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

And this is why others like other side.  Sprint is strict.  The best example is the One Plus.  Even though it DOES have a CDMA radio and supports VoLTE, because it doesn't support like 1x800 they won't take it.
ATT/TMobile don't care.  If its unlocked, it'll take a sim and you get whatever that phone supports.  Only supports B2 LTE, PCS HPSA and GSM, well that is all you get. 
Even phone like say the P30 or Phone 2, they support B26.  Lot of PCS Sprint has is within B2.  Sprint could enable MFBI for B2 to support more devices. If they allowed non-CDMA phones on their network phone makers might go through the touch extra effort to certify B25. 

It is what is being implied. It's the fact that you need a compatible phone that supports CDMA to run on Sprint.  This rules out loads of phones. 

Just a few that come to mind instantly: OnePlus, Huawei, Razor, Hydrogen, Sonim, LTE flip phones.

You don't understand?     Anything other than some data, it's still divided by carrier GSM/CDMA... all the old back up systems are still there for calling etc...as well as how the phone handles simultaneous call/data use...   band aids are in place for CDMA to do that but they don't work as intended....       I get what he intended/meant.   I still see a difference.. we haven't been on LTE all that long (2-3 years??) and we don't roam across the carriers like we should.

I'm so tired of this argument for so many reasons!   Airwaves and towers cost money...  equipment, people...   etc... do you really expect costs to NOT go up over the years?    Does the cost of food, drugs, and fuel not rise constantly?   Why do you think the cost of phone/internet service should not go up?   
I truly think and believe what they have been saying ... when you combine the networks and there is a lot of available band width... they will try to fill it...  I think since there will be more, prices for service will probably drop.   But if they don't, I can understand why.       

I’m really interested to see what T-Mobile does with this 2.5 and the rate of tower integration. I would like to guess that cities are going to be very dense and the service not working in buildings should die as well. Crowded events like concerts and stuff shouldn’t be as bad either.

I was planning on switching back to Sprint (Verizon customer currently) around September. Would I still be able to get a current sprint plan since the deal hasn’t closed and probably won’t until October? Also has there been any detail as to if T-Mobile will honor the Hulu, Tidal add-ones for the 3 year promise?

how long till we know since i have both avable to me tello is sprint us moble i have tmoble avable but on verzion  
so hard to decie which one to pick 

I know B71 is on my S10+ it's just disabled, a new sim card from T-Mobile would likely enable it.

I’m actually on boost mobile. I’m jumping ship though to Verizon.

I'm hoping T Mobile unlocks us so we can start using their frequency's.   I can use some better in-building reception.

You remember that the AWS spectrum was supposed to be for Sprint but Sprint dropped the ball. 

Yeah that’s only usable for uplink Band 29.

AT&T also owns 700Mhz Block D and some of block E.

As far as 700 mHz goes, who owns most of it?  AT&T or Verizon?   I remember Verizon getting a pretty decent swath...

Looks like AT&T. They have 15x10 most places. Verizon has 10x10 everywhere except for one select area in Nevada that's 15x15.

There really isn't any 700 (ABC) left.  700MHz is about as nationwide as TMobile can ever get it unless regional carriers sell out or need cash so are willing to sell some assets.
600 is where all the speculators are. This is where all the large spectrum transactions are going to be taking place in the future.
