T-Mobile eclipses expectations, already
covering 300 million people in the U.S. with 5G … WAY ahead of
schedule
Like only they would, T-Mobile is merging
technology with mixology to celebrate the country’s largest,
fastest and most reliable 5G network
It’s 5G o’clock somewhere. T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) and Sprint
came together with the perfect blend of capacity, coverage and
relentless Un-carrier spirit to build the country’s largest,
fastest and most reliable 5G network. Now, T-Mobile’s Extended
Range 5G covers 300 million people months ahead of schedule —
nearly everyone in the country — and Ultra Capacity 5G covers 150
million! To celebrate, T-Mobile has bottled the Un-carrier spirit
as an actual spirit: Ultra Capacity 5Gin. And because #5GforAll,
there’s even a non-alcoholic Extended Range 5Ginger Beer. Starting
tomorrow June 24 at 12 pm PT, visit t-mobile5gin.com to order your
very own bottle of 5Gin or six pack of 5Ginger Beer. Limited
quantities are available, and just like T-Mobile’s 5G network,
they’re gonna go fast. Salut!

“Last year, when we said we’d cover 300 million people with 5G
by the end of 2021, people thought we were crazy. Now, we’ve blown
by that goal SIX MONTHS ahead of schedule, and we won’t stop
building the nation’s largest, fastest and most reliable 5G
network,” said Mike Sievert CEO of T-Mobile. “Now, we’re gonna
celebrate in a way ONLY T-Mobile would — by bottling the Un-carrier
spirit. Yes, you heard that right. And as we begin to get back to
all the things we have missed, it's time for a celebratory toast
with 5Gin and 5Ginger Beer. You know the GIF from The Great Gatsby?
That's me right now. Cheers!”

T-Mobile is no stranger to shaking and stirring the competition
while building a 5G network with coverage and performance the
others just can’t match. The Un-carrier’s 5G now covers 300 million
people with Extended Range 5G! T-Mobile’s Ultra Capacity 5G is
expanding at an incredible pace and now covers 150 million people
across the country, with plans to cover 200 million people
nationwide this year. Ultra Capacity 5G can deliver blazing fast 5G
speeds in more places than anyone else, with average download
speeds of 325 Mbps with peaks of 1 Gbps, while Extended Range 5G is
great for blanketing the country including rural and remote areas.
T-Mobile’s 5G network spans 1.6 million square miles — that’s
nearly 2x more coverage than AT&T and 4x more than Verizon —
and the Un-carrier keeps widening its lead.
If the last year taught us anything, it’s that connectivity is
critical … and, we could all use a drink. So, to help budding
mixologists, T-Mobile published a set of recipes online including a
magenta riff on a classic, the 5G & T, as well as a Magenta
Martini, a non-alcoholic 5Ginger Mule and more. So you can stay
connected and refreshed with your favorite cocktail or mocktail
during your next virtual or in-person happy hour.
To create Ultra Capacity 5Gin, T-Mobile joined forces with
Heritage Distilling Company, a majority women-owned Pacific
Northwest business, one of the country’s top premier craft
distilleries and the most awarded in North America by the American
Distilling Institute for the past seven years. Offered in a
striking, premium black bottle, 5Gin uses Heritage’s award-winning
Elk Rider Gin and includes a distinctive combination of botanicals
crafted through a special field-to-flask distillation process — an
experience that reflects the uncompromising commitment to quality
that T-Mobile and Heritage share. 5Gin is available for $30 per
bottle not including shipping or taxes, and availability varies
based on differing state regulations and logistics.
To ensure everyone can get a taste of 5G, the Un-carrier also
partnered with Jones Soda Co., a popular craft soda maker also in
the Pacific Northwest, to launch Extended Range 5Ginger Beer, a
premium and versatile non-alcoholic brew that tastes great on its
own or as the foundation to your favorite cocktail or mocktail.
Just like T-Mobile’s Extended Range 5G, 5Ginger Beer is widely
available — so practically anyone can get in on the celebration.
5Ginger Beer is available across the contiguous U.S. and comes in a
six pack for $10, plus the cost of shipping and taxes.
Visit t-mobile5gin.com for more information. Orders for 5Gin and
5Ginger Beer begin tomorrow, June 24, at 12 pm PT, and remember to
act fast as limited quantities are available.
