T-Mobile’s advanced LTE network delivers mind-numbing speeds on the latest superphones as new data shows the Duopoly’s networks slowing – by up to 14%! – under strain of Unlimited LTE

What’s next is here—and it’s freaky fast. Starting today, T-Mobile customers with the latest smartphones can get up to DOUBLE their current speeds – up to gigabit-class speeds at the Un-carrier. That’s all on top of what is already America’s fastest LTE network.

And, while the Un-carrier just keeps taking the speed crown – recently notching the company’s 13th quarter in a row as the fastest LTE network in America – Verizon and AT&T are cratering since they launched unlimited data. Verizon’s download speed has plummeted 14% since they launched unlimited LTE – talk about a freefall! AT&T’s download speed followed suit and dropped 4% ever since they FINALLY got on board with offering all their customers unlimited LTE.

“Watching what the carriers’ new unlimited plans are doing to their networks is like watching a train wreck in slow motion – emphasis on slow,” said John Legere, president and CEO of T-Mobile. “This is what happens when you unleash unlimited data on a network that wasn’t built to handle it. T-Mobile’s network was built for unlimited, so customers can experience the Galaxy S8 as it was intended – insanely-fast and without limits.”

Speed into the Savings

Customers who pick up the latest superphones at T-Mobile can still save hundreds annually over Verizon and AT&T with T-Mobile ONE -- the best unlimited plan on a network built to handle it -- with benefits like unlimited everything, zero overages, taxes and fees included and coverage in the air and around the globe. Right now, it’s just $100 a month on AutoPay for 2 lines of T-Mobile ONE.

Speed calculations based on T-Mobile’s analysis of Ookla® Speedtest® data using download speed from January 1 to February 12 for Verizon (25.49 Mbps) and January 1 to February 15 for AT&T (24.41 Mbps) compared to the week of April 9-15 (21.96 and 23.51 Mbps respectively).

On all T-Mobile plans, if the network becomes intermittently congested, top 3% of data users (>30 GB/mo.) may notice reduced speeds due to prioritization. Video typically streams at DVD quality (480p). Sales tax and regulatory fees included in monthly service price. See in-store materials for specifics in your state. Device speeds vary based on device, location, and network conditions; typical download speeds will vary.
